Can the Zoom H6 substitute having mixer for doing podcast recordings with Skype calls?

Although I have not used the Zoom H6 in this type of situation, I believe it will work according to the settings in the manual. However to be absolutely sure, please contact Zoom support.

I have the same microphone and used my iphone4 to record and only got the recording through the onboard mic. The lapel is great but I think it is set up for use with recorders. I use it with the ZoomH1 but you could use a cheaper recorder Olympus VN-7200 Digital Voice Recorder (V404130BU000)

i believe so. i use it in podcasting and will often times have it in record ready mode - my words not theirs - you can depress the record button one and it flashes red which enables the audio feed to pass through the line out or headphones jack. good luck

I essentially have the same question with this variation: Can I plug a mic into it to work with the ZOIPER voip program

Sorry but no. Like most similar recorders, plugging onto one of the connectors from an external source disables the built-in mics. To do what you are asking requires an external mixer.

No there's a mic already built in and it works with Skype, chatroulette, and the Lenovo video capture thing.

Depending on OS, you would need to select audio source. Skype has Audio settings where you can select where audio is coming from and where it is going to. Both MacOs and Windows recognize this mixer perfectly fine.

Have no idea about the Zoom H2N... It works well with the Sennheiser remote microphone system.

It works with standard windows drivers, so you don't need software to use it with Skype. If you want to record then you will need to get some kind of recording software. Recording length will depend on the software you get.

I use it with my Zoom H6 all the time. Works beautifully. I'm currently using it with the Zoom and the Sennheiser e935 Mic to produce an audio book. Don't see any reason it wouldn't also work great with your Tascam.

It should work if google hangouts will let you choose which audio device to use. Just make sure you read the docs that come with the mixer carefully. It explains how to set the recording levels in windows. It's imperative that you follow the instructions. Once setup it does a nice job.

I use with the Zoom H4N. It has an XLR input, so you can use in any recorder that has xlr.

I did a lot of research on this before I bought it. It does do the job. It's really the only thing out there that does the job (for that matter). That said, you may want into looking into the app pluralEyes 3, It syncs audio files to video files like a dream. And in the end, may make for a much cleaner work flow. Just run the cheap mic on your DLSR for scratch audio, and pluralEyes, will use that to match the much better audio from your zoom.

This is Star's husband. I use a Zoom H4N and change the settings to dual channel. You have to change the audio when your editing it to dual. I had the same problem. I don't know of any way to change the settings on the unit.

It depends on two things - 1: what kind of mics you have and 2: if you need all of the audio recorded into separate channels on the computer. If you have 6 mics that are XLR or need phantom power, then this will not suit your needs - this can only power 4 XLR mics. (If you have what are called dynamic mics with 1/4" plugs - or self powered condensor mics that can use 1/4" jacks - then you are fine). For the second part (about separate channels) it really depends what you want to be able to do. The USB part of this mixer records just two separate channels into the computer - the same as the left and right main output of the mixer. So if you were to use 6 mics you would have them all recorded, but all together. (Thus, if someone was too quiet, you could not just turn them up after the fact.) You can use the panning to get two completely separate tracks, but that's clearly not enough for what you're trying to do. If you want to record all 6 tracks independently you will need something more expensive. I hope this helps!

Yes, it works just like that. Plug it in and you'll be ready to speak. For my zoom recorder (H2), I needed to go into settings and turn "Plug-in" on before I could get it to work. I was so bothered that something was wrong before I learned about this. Hope this is helpful

That depends on your camera. My XA10 will allow me to mix from the onboard mic and to isolate the WM-V1 when needed. I don't know if all cameras allow this or not.
