Don't sell your mixer, multichannel recorder, and phantom power supply
before you have time to work with the H6a for a few months. I
guarantee you'll miss the convenience of having all the controls
right in front of you.
I'm sure there are people for whom this is an ideal recorder.What do
you do that makes you believe it will replace most of what you're
using now? Are you doing surround recording on location? Or planning
to work on your next magnum opus at the beach?
Right, well, OK, I will keep the other equipment until I am sure about the
H6, but I see no reason to think it will be any less quality than my Tascam
or other Zoom recorders.
I just record the local wind band for free, trying to perfect my technique
and learn about recording. Doing recording really is a fast track to
understanding a lot about audio in general, and you get to compare your
results to the live sound etc.
