About the Zoom EHX-6e External Input

The Zoom EHX-6e External Input (sold by Zoom as the EXH-6e) is a capsule that attaches to compatible Zoom portable recorders and adds two XLR/TRS combo inputs plus a 3.5 mm mic/line input. We offer Zoom EHX-6e External Input rental in Madrid and across Spain for anyone who needs to add microphones, instruments or line sources to their recorder without changing kit, just for the length of the recording or event.

What it is rented for

It is useful when a recorder runs short of inputs. According to Zoom, it lets you connect two more microphones, instruments or line-level sources, and the manufacturer recommends it for podcasters who need two extra XLR inputs. The 3.5 mm input takes lavalier mics or stereo feeds. It could suit podcasts, interviews or events where several sources have to be recorded at once. With condenser mics on phantom power, the capsule needs power through its USB-C port; ask what is included when you request a quote.
