can i record multiple microphones simultaneously? for example: if i were interviewing two people.....

You should. Though I haven't tried it I don't see why you couldn't run one mic into the xlr input and run another into the 1/4. But make sure you use phantom power. Great question though. I'll have to try it out myself

As long as the microphone cables are not ALL XLR. There's only one XLR channel so if the other mics are XLR you'll just need an adapter to plug them into the mixer.

No, while technically it can record four tracks, they are essentially two stereo tracks based on three inputs sources.The built in mics will create a single left and right stereo track, the external inputs will create a left and right stereo track also. You can use a software program to break them out into four mono tracks, but the built in mics will essentially be the same source.I hope this helps

Yes it should not be an issue, I have done each plug with multiple wireless mics before.

You can plug two microphones into the transmitter, but the second mic would be tethered to the transmitter. This would be fine if you were, say interviewing someone at a table and you wanted to record both people. If you wanted to have two people moving around separately and wirelessly recording them, you'd need two systems.

The microphone in this device is very sensitive. In fact it's too sensitive that you hear all background noise very clearly so it's almost impossible to use outside. Inside I still find a slight hiss and still hear background sounds even in the quietest of rooms. So.. For multiple person interviews the best bet is to use multiple lapel pins connected to one of its interface. In a pinch u can try to use it indoors but be prepared to do some cleanup of noise after u record

You can only use one microphone at a time, yes you can edit on Audacity or Adobe Audition CS/CC as WAV or MP3.

Never tried it but you should be able to, most recording software will recognise the input so you shouldn't have a problem. You can plug the other end of the 1/4 into the mix port and you should be able to use both mics.

Not directly. If you connect this to a mixer for studio recording, you can channel the two tracks. 1 microphone goes out on the right channel and the other goes out on the left channel. Then using your digital audio workstation, split the left and right channels into separate tracks. Boom, you can edit each voice separately.

yes you can record 2 shows at one time but then you can't watch live show, but you can watch a recorded one while recording 2

It works only with one. if you have two mics hooked on each it XLR will be the one active (the TRS signal is so low that is kind of useless). I guess the Y would also compromise the quality signal too. Better look for another solution that supports 2 mics

Technically you can't, but you might have issues with both trying to take over the same port, or the computer might read them as the same microphone. In theory I think you could with some tinkering. I've connected two microphones to my PC before but with two different microphones.

I haven't tried it, but since it can be plugged into other recording jacks that accept both mic. and line inputs I don't know why not. However a direct line from the mic to the computer would prevent any static interference so if you can do that it would probably be best.

I think you would want to run multiple mics through an external mixer. The H4n might be better suited to your needs. The H2n is a great little mic by the way. I use it both for location sound and narration.

You can use a mixer device or a "Y" cable, but it is not designed to it. If you do it, both mics will have the effect on then.

My answer is based on the assumption that the two units are identical. This would mean that the units would be using the same 4 frequencies for the mics. In this case you could not use them together because the mics which are on the same frequency will interfere with each other.

Not a silly question. I've heard stories that it can't be done or that it can only be done with certain sound cards, but nothing definitive. I'd ask the same question - can you listen while recording, either through the computer OR through the separate audio output simultaneously?

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!
