Can I plug this directly into a Zoom h4n recorder, or do I need a cord or adapter that's not included?

Jandy, you will need an XLR cable to plug into the Zoom. The microphone does not come with one, but it's great. I own two of them.

It is a 1/8" stereo plug, so you won't need an adapter to record into a stereo jack. However, as SlateEd mentioned, the left and right channels will be the same.

Yep it sure can. I have used mine on a boom connected to a zoom h4n for filming. This product comes with a stereo jack as well so you can record both channels instead of just one as well. Short answer, it works great with a digital recorder. Enjoy.

I have a big can with XLR inputs. it is easy to get an adapter for it. what kind of input socket does your cam have? if its a 1/8' or 1/4' you should not need an adapter.also make sure your battery is fresh every time you use it. it has good sound and a long cord. I find it very handy.

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

I ended up getting a extension cord for my mic, I think I picked it up from Radio Shack. The extension cord I got will not get you out 5m tho, maybe you can find a longer one or make your own. What I do for longer distance videos is to use a remote voice recorder on my person using this mic and then sync the tracks back together during editing. Works great.

The boom mic stand comes with an xlr to xlr mic cable pre-installed. That should connect directly to your microphone no adapter necessary. Jamal Whited nworcsradio@gmail.com djck@atlwebradio.com

As long as your camcorder has a 1/8" stereo mini plug jack for an external mic, yes. I havent tried it myself, but it should work just fine. If you have video/audio editing software, you could just let the h2n record live during your video, the mix in the wave or mp3 sound file in at that time...it really has a lot of flexibility. Hope that helps. :)

I purchased the 6ft cord and tried it out with a Movo VXR300 mic and it worked fine. Of course I also wasn't doing anything action oriented like running through a field. I just wanted to extend the microphone closer to the person I was recording with my camcorder to get better sound quality. I don't know what model of shotgun mic you have or are planning to purchase but take a look at the male end in the picture and check to see if it's the same. The cord is a 3.5mm mini jack with the 2 separators exactly as in the picture and if yours is the same it should be fine. If your mic is mono I am not sure it will work and of course the jack size/type is different you should just look for a cord that will accommodate the size and type of jack. Might also depend on what you are plugging into. It worked perfectly well with the camcorder I have, a Canon MF50, but if you are using a DSLR or some other type of equipment to record you should check to see if the cord will match up with your equipment. If not you may need another cord or an adapter to make everything work together.

If your video camera has an USB input (USB line in) then H2n should work for simultaneous sound/video recording. However, if you are only using it as a microphone that connects to your video camera then there are cheaper alternatives. If your plan is to hold the video camera and the mic (H2n) then don't! H2n is top heavy and has poor balance when connected to the adapter or tripod.

I checked the manual and the record player and there did not seem to be any reference to an adapter.

You don't need any adapter, just connect it to headlignt line power. I added a switch to turnning on/off any time i want ;)

It came with a micro-usb to usb cord. You would need a proprietary adapter.

I believe all you need is a microphone port on your device. Do remember that this mic only works with one unit...buying two and trying to record two sources renders one of them useless (cancels the other out).

You dont need the XLR adapter. You can always buy one later. I just bought one for $77.00. I advise recording your sound to a SEPARATE digital recorder, then synching it up in post later. Dont depend on the camera to record your sound. For quick interviews, use a wired lapel to camera. Shotgun on top of camera is OK for a general recording. Another option is a XLR to miniplug adapter for about $12.00, then use any decent XLR microphone. If you are doing the important documentary, I would surely record separate sound. Then synch in post Several options there for you. Good luck

No, you shouldn't need an adapter if you're plugging it into a mic jack. But do be aware that this is a lav mic, so it's not meant to pick up sounds that are far away. The idea range is about 6" since that's how far it'd be from your mouth when clipped to your shirt.

Yes this is the perfect tool for the Zoom h4n . the right and left are male adapters leading to 1 female XLR out, plug into Mic and Action
