The Largest Microphones for Superior Audio Capture
This portable recorder features 19.4mm microphones, the largest ever on a handy recorder. These mics capture an impressive frequency range with exceptional accuracy, ensuring every detail of your audio is preserved. With a maximum SPL of 140dB, they can handle everything from the subtlest whispers to the loudest performances without distortion. The increased mic size also provides a richer, deeper sound with an expansive dynamic range, making your recordings feel more immersive and lifelike. This combination of size and performance ensures unmatched audio clarity and depth.
Studio-Grade Preamps
The H5Studio features F-series preamps renowned for their low noise and exceptional detail. With a -127dBu EIN (Equivalent Input Noise) and dual AD converters, this recorder captures every nuance of your performance with remarkable accuracy. The 32-bit float recording format ensures that your audio remains distortion-free, even during unexpected volume peaks. This dynamic range of 132dB allows you to record everything from delicate acoustic passages to thunderous live performances without compromise. These preamps provide a clean, professional-grade signal path for flawless recordings.
