Ah Neal Ewers. Yes he is a studio person from Madison Wisconsin. He use to do reviews on Blind cool tech. His site is www.ravenswood.org I don't know what happened to his reviews page and his H6 review is pretty big. On

Hello Andy and Hamit,

Who is this Neil, can you point to his review?

All electronic devices make a noise but most of them are out of our hearing 
range. An amplifier does make a noise especially when it is cranked up to it’s 
maximum. The Zoom 6 pre-amps are known for being noisy. So can you quote Neil 
saying that the Zoom 6 preamps are not noisy?

Andy you can hear the pre-amp hiss on your bird recording. There are 2 ways you 
could eliminate or at least reduce that hiss if you wanted. That I know of.

Hi Guys.

You may remember within his H6 Review, Neal stated "I would not know just how 
to measure the Floor noise , because there doesent seem to be one!

Ah yeah than 35 must be the 1 Neal sent. He sent it to the Reaper list. I've 
yet to finish that 1.

Hello Hamit,

No 36 is out.

Is 35 the newest 1? IF so no I've meant to just haven't gotten to it. Will do 
soon though. Thanks for the reminder.

Hello Hamit,

Out of interest do you listen to Mosen at large (specifically 35)? He is 
singing from the roof about the F6 as it has an iPhone app which is not perfect 
but gives access to functions we have never had access to before.

Actually Gena there's 1 place where I'll give it to ya. Dynamic mics. This is 
also true for the H5 but much much less oddly enough. Same for the H4N Pro. The 
H6 in this respect is again as noisy as the Olympus LS-100. Now can't say on 
the F6 as no one's demoed dynamics on that yet and Neal hasn't demoed dynamics 
on his 744-T so can't say nothing on that either.

Hello Aidan,

Well I am picky, there is nothing wrong in getting the best out of the 
equipment. The Zoom 6 pre-amps are renowned for their hiss. It would be useful 
to share your tips to get the most from the recorder.

If using something like h6 I cannot really imagine that you would need
to apply noise filters. Unless you very picky.

Hello Tim,

Interesting, if using a non destructive DAW like reaper, if it is
incorrectly applied simply undo it. I am not  familiar with using expanders.
But the noise comes from whatever equipment. Very few mics have a
undetectable noise floor and even the best pre-amps have some noise. So a
light touch of post processing is likely to be required. But as you rightly
point out it is down to the environment and what purpose the recording is to
serve.

Thanks,

I agree about most of theadvice here. However i would be careful about
using a noise gate. If set incorrectly, a noise gate can make things sound
worse than better. A downward expander would be better, but if you are
using a quality mic and have recording levels set properly, even a
downward expander probably isn't necessary, depending on what you are
recording.

Hello All,

Rather than making the current discussion on Zoom Microphones. very long
I thought I would ask the community  of their experiences and how they
undertake a recording? As I was not sure if Andy wanted tips on recording
techniques I thought such a thread would help him and those of us who
have a Zoom.

Firstly, I would record in wav. Then use reaper to apply a noise gate.
This removes hiss and other quiet unwanted noises.

I would not use a capsule on the recorder unless it was the only mic
available for that application. Using such a mic I would secure the
recorder and start the recording early so that I could discard the first
second as it will contain handling noise.

I would not wear noisy clothing or jewellery and try to get away from the
active recording space. It is surprising how  clothing, shoes and bangles
rustle and jangle when you are trying to be quiet.

Then it is about choosing the mic for the sound stage I am trying to
capture. Remembering that the wider stage means that I have to be that
much quieter. It could pick me up breathing and moving my feet.

Then there are practical considerations such as power for the Zoom and
protection from wind and rain.

Of the top of my head these are the considerations I would employ before
a recording. So what about your experiences and approach?
