A Quick Look at Some Handy Recorders
OK. So now let's have a look at a couple of different handy recorders. So a handy recorder can be a useful way to record your audio and it stops. You actually recording your audio with software. You can just record the audio directly into these handy recorders. So you don't need an audio interface as well. And a lot of these handy recorders have a built in microphone and other handy recorders allow you to add multiple microphones. This handy recorder I've got over here is the Zoom H Six and this allows you to add up to four microphones and you have a capsule on top as well. And the other handy recorder is the Zoom F one. So this one, you can't actually add any additional microphones, but it does allow you to add a capsule on top. So I'll have a shotgun capsule and XY microphone capsule on the Zoom H six. So these are really a useful way of actually recording audio, especially if you're out and about. So they're handy recorders because they are to be honest, quite handy. So they're also...
called field recorders because you can be out on the field. So out of the studio out on location and you can record audio. I find them especially useful if I want to record audio with video. So I don't need to take a laptop or an audio interface with me. I can just take one of these handy recorders if I have my camera. Of course, many cameras allow you to plug in a microphone. But I do find that audio quality is better on one of these handy recorders than actually plugging a mic directly into the camera. For example, this Zoom H Six here is especially handy if you want to record any podcasts as this allows you to add up to four microphones as well as a capsule on top the Zoom F one, however, is very useful as it's very small and this is the one I use if it's just me speaking on the camera and I'm out of the studio and like I said, you can't plug microphones into the Zoom Hate Six. But if it's just you talking, you could have a look at the F one and they both record onto SD card and then you can plug this SD card into your computer and edit the audio there. You can also attach these handy recorders to shock mounts and tripods, which I have done here because really you don't want to have your hands on the handy recorder when you're recording as this can pick up additional unwanted noise. You can also attach headphones to these handy recorders which allows you to monitor the audio in real time whilst you're recording. So this can be useful for podcasts. So you can hear yourself or the guest back in real time whilst you're recording, you can actually use many handy recorders as an audio interface as well. So you can plug them into the computer via USB, so you can record the audio into your computer with these handy recorders too if you wish. Ok. So I just wanted to show you a couple of handy recorders. I hope you found this video useful and I'll see you in the next one.
