The XYH-5 X/Y microphone capsule provides two matched unidirectional condenser microphones set at a 90 degree angle. These mics are housed within an advanced rubberised shockmount for a maximum SPL of 140 dB SPL, making the microphone ideal for capturing loud sounds such as rock concerts.
Dual combo XLR/TRS inputs
The Zoom H5 features dual combo XLR/TRS inputs that can handle both mic- and line-level signals to allow you to connect external microphones, mixers, portable music players, effects processors, electronic keyboards, and even electric guitars equipped with active electronics. Each input has a dedicated gain control knob, which is located beneath a protective bar to prevent accidental movement during handling. The supplied XYH-5 X/Y capsule also provides a secondary input for connecting stereo mic- or line-level signal via a ⅛" mini phone jack. The H5 supports a +4 dB (professional) input level and utilizes the same preamps as the Zoom H6, ensuring great-sounding recordings in all environments.
Variety of output options
A Line Out with adjustable volume allows you to send a stereo audio output from the Zoom H5, to the mic input of a video camera, or other device, without the need for an attenuator cable. In addition, there's a separate headphone output with a dedicated volume control. You can use both outputs simultaneously to route audio to your DSLR while monitoring over headphones. There's also a built-in speaker for fast access playback, and a USB port which allows the H5 to be used as an audio interface for your computer, tablet or iPad.
