Zoom SSH-6E Stereo Shotgun Microphone

The Zoom SSH-6E Stereo Shotgun Microphone is an advanced mid-side shotgun mic designed to capture both direct sound and ambient noise in stunning detail. Whether you are working in a controlled studio or capturing outdoor recordings, the SSH-6E offers remarkable versatility. With its ability to record hyper-directional audio, this microphone enables precise control over the stereo image, allowing you to mix in only the environmental sounds you want, and leave unwanted noise behind. It’s ideal for filmmakers, podcasters, and content creators who need highly focused and immersive sound.

What makes the SSH-6E truly special is its use of the mid-side technique, an advanced method that lets you adjust the stereo width of your recordings after capturing the audio. The mid microphone features a supercardioid pattern, focusing on direct sound sources, while the side microphone captures a wide stereo image. This unique configuration gives you the freedom to fine-tune the balance between direct sound and surrounding ambiance in post-production, making it easier to create the perfect recording for your project. You can even record in RAW format, allowing you to adjust the stereo width after the fact with complete flexibility.

The SSH-6E is designed to work seamlessly with Zoom’s Capsule System 3.0, ensuring a stable and reliable connection. This new connector also supports 32-bit float recording, giving you the advantage of capturing audio with the highest possible dynamic range. Whether you're working in loud environments or need to capture subtle nuances, the SSH-6E guarantees pristine quality with minimal distortion, making it a must-have tool for anyone serious about high-quality audio recording.
