Frequently Asked Questions
Which Zoom recorders are compatible with the SGH-6 capsule?
The SGH-6 is compatible with the Zoom H5, H6, Q8, U-44, F1, F4, F8n, and F8 recorders. It connects directly to the recorder's capsule input without any additional adapters.
How does the SGH-6 achieve its directional pickup in such a compact size?
The SGH-6 uses three internal microphones with digital signal processing to create a highly directional super-cardioid pickup pattern, allowing it to achieve shotgun-level directionality at roughly half the physical length of a traditional shotgun microphone.
Does this kit include a windscreen?
Yes. This is the windscreen kit version, which includes the SGH-6 capsule along with a foam windscreen for reducing wind noise during outdoor recording.
Can the SGH-6 be used as a standalone microphone without a Zoom recorder?
No. The SGH-6 is a capsule accessory that requires a compatible Zoom recorder to function. It cannot be used independently or connected to other brands of audio equipment.
