Re: [all-audio] To Dane and list
Ah cool. Yeah 8 tracks I think it was the 100 could do. But oops, only 2 XLRs. I never did understand the wind thing. I didn't realy mind that much as had I got 1 like I do with the H6 I'md mostly use my awesome Audio-Technica AT-8022. Yeah the line in thing. I remember you saying the line in on the LS-100 was awesome. I don't know how line in sounds on the 100 though but from Neal's demo of his keyboard the H6 Line-in audio especially if you use the 4th inth jacks in the XLRs is pure epicness.

The Zoom H6 is more practical with 6 inputs. Second I was never able to successfully navigate the multi track Interface of the LS-100 whereas using Multi track functionality of the Zoom H6 and F8 recorders is an absolute breeze in comparison. Yes I used the Olympus LS-100 for quite a few tasks as I've detailed on this list. These tasks included sampling Vinyl and I've also said that if you're into sampling vinyl then the LS-100 would be a great choice for that sort of thing rather than sampling directly to your computer. The microphones of the LS-100 sound very nice but as Neal and others have said - and I say -, recording outdoors is a real problem as wind gets through the sockets of the recorder so - even if you have a wind screen fitted - you will get interference from wind noise. -Original Message- From: all-audio@groups.io On Behalf Of Hamit Campos Sent: Sunday, 27 January 2019 4:55 AM To: all-audio@groups.io Subject: Re: [all-audio] To Dane and list Ah interesting. How so? Neal never touched the multitrack stuff. Well weather he tried it or not who actually knows. But at least on podcast he didn't say anything because it didn't talk there. So how did it go? If you're saying it was a dog's breakfast I can only assume not verry well. lol I haven't touched multi track and bouncing stuff on the H6 cause I'd have to use aira. I have some trouble with lighting in my room. Also for some reason the Iphone camera has a hard time with the screen. Go someware sunny enough though and it's okay. Na dude don't get me wrong. I love and wana complete my H6. It's just that the F8 and now as the F8N seems just so much closer to the dreem. Which would be 1 of them 7 recorders from Sound Devices. I see it this way. The F8N is an 8 channal XLR machine like the Sound-Devices 788-T but for way way much less. If the recording I heard made on an F4 is anything to judge buy boy these things are pretty dam realistic and movie like as you can get other than actually getting the 788-T. But yeah dude. I love my H6. It's actually too bad it's so cold and I can't go out doors. I love capturing things with it. I have plans of things to record with it.

Re: [all-audio] To Dane and list
Also once I've found out how SoundForge Pro or hell even the new Audio Studio treets it than it's just a matter of getting the EXH6. Because if SF Pro sees it as a 5.1 thing as I suspect it would than perfect. As a matter of another fact, even during the time boath the 100 and the H6 were boath arround and a choice I always considered sucking it up and getting it over with and just getting the H6. Because yes the 100 talks thus 1 can do things on the fly more easly. Yes it had switches for phantum so on the fly you can activate and deactivate at will. But like you said once Dain, what's more important? Quality or ease. Well I took it and added chanals. I decided 5.1 is more important to me. Also like I said before the H6 is quite a bit brighter than the 100. It's more closer to the 788-T dreem. On 1/26/2019 12:22 PM, Dane Trethowan wrote: Okay perhaps I didn’t explain myself correctly.
