Frequently Asked Questions

The XYH-6 is surprisingly good for its size, but a dedicated pair like Schoeps will offer more detail and nuance, especially in critical listening environments.
Absolutely. The XLR inputs with phantom power and gain controls make it a solid, portable interface, though latency might be a factor depending on your computer's processing power.
A fast, high-capacity SDXC card (at least 128GB) is crucial. Look for a card with a high write speed rating (U3 or V30) to avoid dropped frames or recording errors.
