This is one of my favorite videos on the zoom h1n! I purchased it last year and it’s just sitting in my desk. You’ve given me some great ideas!! Thank you!!

I can’t believe you posted this only a few days ago! I just randomly found your channel while looking at camera reviews and my biggest issue with starting a KZread channel was figuring out how to get better audio! I was trying to use my phone but every external phone mic I looked up just didn’t seem good enough so I assumed it wouldn’t be possible. And while I was watching your videos I was just thinking about how good your audio sounded and how badly I wanted that!! I had never thought of a gadget like this. You just mentioned it briefly in your Osmo pocket video and I said to myself “wow I really hope he has a video on that zoom thing!” And here we are!! I CANNOT wait to buy this and finally get started. I’ll invest in a better camera next :)

I have 4 of these and love them! This way I can mic each of my talent, and have great sound!!

Booming it from above using its own mics works really well. I felt that your levels were just a bit low when you showed it on screen. I set it to ‘hover’ around -12 not ‘peak’. Means a little less headroom but you’re not going to suddenly shout in your video and then some peaks might hit -3 to -6dB. Result is an even lower noise floor. More expensive recorders are quieter so you do actually have the luxury of masses of headroom with very little noise because the preamps are really good. Recording very low with those recorders is easier with regards to noise. With the H1, the preamp is a bit more noisy so the more you can get in without peaking, the better the signal to noise.

At least a video that shows that mic on a practical way for a complete beginner. Thank you so much!

This was really an excellent video. I was curious about what a digital audio recorder is/does and found your video. You answered all my questions and had really great explanations and samples. I think I got 100% of what I need! Thank you so much!!!

This was the best video for this mic. Definitely going to buy one now! Great job!

This is one of my favorite videos you've done.

You're in my top 3 tech reviews online. No particular slot. But I always click you when I see you doing a review on the topic I'm searching!!

Just purchased one of these! Great review and picked up some insights here. Thanks a lot!

I used the H1 as my external mic for my Sony a5100 for years. No mic jack? No problem!

This has been on my list for some time. Congrats on the 80k

I was already planning to buy two of these next month after I get paid. Nice to see your review. I'll be using it for my youtube videos and for other productions.

I have a Zoom H1n, I love it. I will continue buying products of Zoom. Great video! Greetings from Spain.

The self interview was awesome man

This was great, exactly what I needed. I have one sitting on my desk, cant wait to use it! Thanks!

Thanks Gary been looking for something like this. Thanks for sharing.

It’s got a micro USB port for external power. Awesome feature. Great video bro!

glad i watch this video. My H1N just got delivered today

I'm new to the technical side of things but I finally understand why people are in to the h1n. Thanks for the review Ted, now I'm going to invest in one of these bad boys

I use the H1n for 3 months now and I like it a lot

Great video, Gary. I'm so glad that you shared this with everybody because it is a wonderful budget microphone digital recorder that lets people get great audio. I use it for every single video and I use the little dead cat wind muff. I personally like the built-in stereo microphones better than using the lav mic on it. I also love the auto leveler for my situation of cooking because I use various types of appliances in the kitchen and it keeps it from blowing out the audio.

Great review. Just got mine the other day, however yours seems to come with a much nicer bag.

Thank you for uploading Ordering one for me now✌️

I have the original Zoom H1 and it is great -- the controls are little more cumbersome and "fiddly" than the H1N, but the audio is great. My two younger daughters did their own "Two Woman Show" production of MacBeth and I recorded it with three video cameras and used the H1, aimed into the room, as the main audio track. I did record audio on the three cameras, and then in my video editing software I could sync all of the video tracks together based on the audio, I muted the camera audio and used the H1 audio -- and it came out fantastic -- even in a living room, inside. Thanks!

That lav is not doing that H1n any favors. With that said, this was another great video. Thanks, Everyday dad.

Great review! You helped me a lot!

Perfect timing as I'm shopping for an audio companion for my osmo pocket, this sounds like a great next step!

I have the H1 (not the N) , great value and sound. I have my lav mics attached to the straps on my bags, in my helmet etc and use the H1 for all of them, so flexible and the batteries last for days and days.

good video, going to buy this! :)

Such positivie energy

I love the H4n Pro because of ability to recorded 4 tracks at a time and the built in x-y mics are a little better. The dead cat I purchased for the 4n fits the 2n so for out door it will save your shot. Monitor mode to the cam with wav recorded as the synchronized audio

I actually did a review of that dirt cheap lavelier mic! Great mic even without any extras needed!

I've been using H1s (need to get the N version) for years with lavs on talent when recording. Number of times they've let me down? ZERO! Great devices!!

I use the Zoom H6, F8, and the H1. Actually I have four H1’s. There are times when multiple inputs require the bigger units, but the H1 is the most used of the three. I carry one in a pocket 24/7 (and these days the Osmo Pocket in another pocket) and thus have the basics to record virtually anything that happens in life. Gone are the days of kicking myself for missing unexpected things because I didn’t have any gear with me. The gain dial on the front of the H1n is a great improvement in some circumstances, but I prefer the input level buttons on the side of the older model because the side buttons were exactly where the thumb rests on the dice and easier to use one handed, plus I can use manual input levels but put the H1 in the pocket without any concern that the input levels might change as with a gain dial. The H1 or H1n are both the best investment any videographer can make. They are worth their weight in gold.

You can even use it as a shotgun on top. If you don't want to use it as a pr amp and connect a lav mic to it, just hook it up to the camera and use it as a shotgun. :) Great video.

Directly recording via the inbuilt stereo mics with the pop filter and adjusting the bass and treble in post make it the best cheapest option for voice overs!

Thanks, liked and subscribed

Ordered one today as a B-stock after hunting one for months for 80 euro's. Will attach it on the side of my Feiyutech G6 gimbal with the yi4k action cam and do some video's asap. That's a great compact high quality set imho.

Great vid! But for one thing: The lav mic sounded awful (yes I know it’s cheap) during your indoor example but sounded much better outside for some reason. Was it the same one? What’s your xlr indoor mic?

I use H1n as a boom mic setup over the head of the talent with a boom arm

Great video dude, how about some budget lighting setup, like a combination of the GVM RGB-10S (which i own) and the GVM P80s (which i hope to buy this year)

Excellent video, especially for non -tech savvy people like me. I recently bought the Zoom H1N and I have been using a Boya BY-M1 mic with my Nikon D5300. I want to connect the mic with the Zoom H1N and then connect the Zoom H1N to my camera, so that I have 2 audio files. 1. Which cable do I need? TRS to TRRS or some other one? 2. Please give some advice regarding an inexpensive lav mic, which is similar in quality and price as Boya BY m1, because the part of Boya BY-M1 with the battery makes it really fragile. Thank you very much for your time and effort.

I got it the other day in the mail. Also got the foam and dead cat. Have it set a MP3 320pbs. Not sure about the wav thing. There is a 4th use. As a stereo mic directly plugged into the camera. Just turn down the camera's preamps to 1 or 2 above 0 (aka the lowest) and adjust the gain dial and look at the audio of the camera. Plug the Zoom from the green to the camera's audio port. It works really well as a powered mic. Tested on the Nikon 5300 (horrible native audio preamps) and Sony AX53 (good IMO native preamps). It sounds really good.

Glad you made this video. I’ve had the H1n for a few months but only recently learned I can use it as a pre amp for my M50. It’s definitely is worth the small investment for a big return on audio quality. Do you think it would be useful to pair with my M50 when using the rode wireless go? I was thinking it would still record internal, but I wouldn’t have to be tethered to the camera via the wired lav microphone. I definitely would like to see more videos on budget audio solutions. Especially something entry level using an xlr microphone and pre amp.

Do you get better audio recording onto the camera using the H1N as a pre-amp or using it externally and then syncing later? Or does it not make a difference?

I know right? 🤯

Hey, thank you for the great video! I have a question about how to use the H1n between the mic and the camera (I use a Sony Alpha 6400). How should the gain be set in the camera if you use the H1n as pre-amp? And does the H1n have to record in this setup to or do you only record on the cam?

I have the H4N Pro. Plans changed and it barely gets used. For my needs, the H1N would have been a better choice and probably kept in a compact camera bag at all times instead of sitting in a drawer....hindsight....😂

Is it necessary to use a second microphone on a T-shirt when connecting the recorder with a jack cable to a Sony camera? Can I use the Zoom's main microphone then?

I think it will be really good to record ambient sounds .

Thanks a lot! Have you tried feeding audio via Zoom H1n into DJI Osmo Pocket (via the adaptor - no post production sync)? Is it any good? I’m considering buying Zoom H1n specifically for that purpose.

Audio is hands down the most important element, can rip your vid to the cutting room floor harder than anything else!

You can also miss the lavalier mic out of the set-up if your recording indoors, Zoom headphone out to camera mic in, well at least on my Canon 100D it records the audio direct to my camera and sounds great, [Canon pre-amp recording level set to +1. Zoom Recoring level @ +84 - Zoom headphone out level @ +68]

Get a rode wireless go instead i am IN LOVE with it

Hey there, thanks for the info. but since I'm very green about audio I have to ask. . .is your Lav connected to the zoom in this video at the end? I can see the Zoom is connected but don't see another cable for the Lav. I'm still unclear if these types of devices are supposed to be used as stand alone recorders or are to be connected to the camera?? If your Lav is connected to the zoom I guess there are plenty of ports on the Zoom? And can one use a wireless Lav with the Zoom?

Thanks Everyday Dad. I'm still trying to solve some autio issues and this might be the answer..

I record from a lav mic plugged to my Samsung Galaxy S8 phone, and it works great. Total cost = $10!

what lav mic do you use?

You might like to try the Zoom Q8 camera. 2 XLR combo jacks with phantom power, & interchangeable mic's to meet almost any need mount on top....records up to 4 channels of audio at once, & no need to sync in post. I have the H1 & the H1n & prefer the original H1 for lav mic use, because if the H1n's volume dial gets moved in your talents pocket, it can ruin the audio. Also, I prefer the Tascam line of DR series for a much better rugged build quality. My DR22wl is still going strong after 5 years, but both my original H1's literally fell apart.

I own a Osmo action. When DJI releases the 3.5mm adapter will you be able to plug the camera right into the recorder? This way I wouldn’t have to sync up the audio later?

I am undecided between H2N / H4NPro / Shure VP83 / Azden SMX30 / RODE Stereo VideoMic shotgun, I don't understand if H4NPro has the surround effect if other microphones are connected. With the H2N it is possible to have a 2 / 4CH surround with its integrated microphones. What do I need to do to use what advice? I register events, excursions, dialogues and film my children. Thank you

I bought the H6N about 6 years ago in college, and used it a total of twice, and I always intended to get out and make soundscapes, but excuses, you know?

I own one of those it’s a great little recorder, I use it all the time as it is very light and audio to me is awesome. Thank you for this review.

I wonder if it's worth to lav in to the H1 on your belt for pre amps, then line out to the rode go to transmit. Or would that be all kinds of redundancy?
