Zoom H2e vs Tascam Portacapture X6 self-noise testing. Quality good enough?
How is the self-noise of these recorders. Zoom H2 essential and Tascam Portecapture X6. Is there a significant difference, that is big enough, to make it a factor when buying one of these for ambience recordings?
My own answer is yes. Tascam X6 is quieter and that matters for me when doing these kind of recordings.

Tascam Portacapture x6 - Testing low cut settings in field recording.
มุมมอง 7221 วันที่ผ่านมา
The Field recording app in the Portacapture X6 suggests that nature is recorded with low cut 120Hz. I have tested all the low cut settings the Tascam gives us. Off - 40Hz - 80Hz - 120Hz - 240Hz. Video starts with 20 sec. in each setting, so you quickly can get an idea of how or if the different settings affect the recording. Then some longer snippets with the different settings. The recording i...

Too high self noise? Clippy em272 in zoom f2. Ambient + passing bikes.
มุมมอง 1.5K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Testing this ultra portable setup. A clippy em272 microphone in the zoom f2 recorder. Recorded in 32bit float. I am surprised how much (self) noise I got from this. Both the microphone and the recorder should supposedly give me very low self noise. Or maybe I just misunderstood something and the noise is just as it could be expected. I had expected something else though.

Ya I hear the hiss. Maybe the gain is raised so high there is a noise floor
I think you are right. The gain was raised quite a bit. I got my self a portacapture x6, and i need to test it up against that.
@@DavidBondeDanmark another point , that your new test might help verify, is the Clippy takes 5v of plug-in power and the Zoom f2 only supplies 2.5. Someone was saying on Reddit that when they use their Dpa without enough power they need to crank the gain too high to get enough sound
@ will test and see / hear
Thank you for comparison. I own X6 but planning to buy H2e. What mode did you use on H2e? It has basically 4 mics vs. 2 mics on X6. So the noise is higher by default. Did you set X6 mics to XY or AB? Was H2e set to MS? It sounds a bit like MS that is not decoded? The way H2e mics are set, I think the good comparison would be: X6 mics to AB, 48/32bit vs. H2e to MS (front only), 48/32bit. Thanks! Have a good day
I tried to make it as close to each other as possible. Maybe I did it wrong. On the H2e I used the front mic only in 120 degrees. It was set to stereo and not MS. The X6 was in xy config. I see now that H2e was in 48/32 bit and X6 in 44/32. I dont fully understand MS recording so I left that out. Where I am at the moment in my recordings I dont want mess around too much in post. But let me do some recordings as you suggest.
low key flex. strong lad
That sounds great. What brand is that, Mike?
But em272 is stereo, and F2 is mono. That's no problem?
Seems like hum of distant sounds. I experienced similar feeling when I started recording. With microphones even quieter tham em272 I had this hum or noise. After a while I realised that this is just a mix of various distant and indistinctive sounds. Microphones are so much sensitive that the catch everything. Well, almost ;) With our ears we either do not hear it or our brains just filter out this ambient noise.
Nice sound and demo! These EM272 are very good! I have been there, is it at Fieberbrunn, Tirol Austria?
Any thoughts on the f2 vs f3 self noise, specifically when both work with em272? Do you think f3 is worth the extra price, assuming clippy is the only mic used?
great sound, I use my clippies all the time
The em272's have very low self-noise but are also very sensitive. The noise sounds like traffic, which can be heard from 5 miles away in some conditions. Would be interested to hear if you've done further testing and the results. Thanks!
I think you are right. Think it boils down to that I didn’t really completely understand what 32 bit can do and what it can’t do. I have tested the setup (clippy and f2) under a huge pile of blankets as suggested. When I amplify that recording I do get a lot different kind of hiss than I this video. So you are most likely right that in this video it’s traffic or something else environmental.
@@DavidBondeDanmark Glad you were able to figure it out. Noise can be introduced when boosting the gain too much. Looking forward to seeing/hearing some of your recordings.
Snap I just bought exactly the same setup. It sounds really good! Just bought the Zoom F3 as well so hopefully clippy stereo works well
Do you know how long a zoom F2 can record unattentioned? With proper power supply, would it be possible making a full week recording without the need to press a button? Numerous files would not be an issue.
Just using common aaa as they mostly come from the grocery store it won't be powered for long. But you can power it through usb c port and attach as big of a battery as you like.
@@DavidBondeDanmark Thanks a lot for this feedback. I am looking for a full week recording for sound indexes analysis. My fear is that there could be a cap on a single sound file size (example 4GB) and that the recording stops when a new file is created.
@@jweber2954 I dont think there is a cap on files. But I dont know. And if there is there a new file should be started without stopping the recording.
@@DavidBondeDanmark Thanks, for the kind feedback
To me the background sounds like distant traffic noise, not hiss from the mics. You can try to record indoor under a pile of blankets and see what noise is really from the mics.
You might be right. I tried to record in my silent living room and was not impressed. I will try what you suggest whit the blanket. That’s a good idea.
@@DavidBondeDanmark My silent living room, even at 2a.m. is definitely not silent (and I don't live in the middle of a city). But that's a good way of comparing different mics/recorders.
I thought em272 has incredible low self noise in this price region?
Me too. Are you impressed with the noice here?
@@DavidBondeDanmark my clippy EM272 have almost none noticable self noice
I am impressed, though this is coming from someone who's not into field recording. But to me it sounds like I'm actually there. Great little mics.
is it stereo pair of Clippy em272 ? How did you connect ?
No it’s mono and just one mic. I am just plying around with what I got. At some point I will get my self a proper stereo setup. But till then I will play with this 😊
The EM272 is noted for its' remarkable lack of noise!
That was my understanding as well. The f2 should also have low noice. So what do you think when you hear this?
@@DavidBondeDanmark I think this sounds like what the world sounds like! Well, what the world sounds like when I monitor on headphones, probably at too high a level for any sense of realism. It also sounds like my Clippys. Which sound pretty similiar to my more expensive mics (but not stupid expensive like any Schoeps mic for instance). The Clippys produce a little more level at very low frequencies than my other mics though, so they probably get a bit more bass roll off when I edit them than the other mics will. I reckon you can rest assured your mic and recorder are not faulty in any way!
Tooo high! What self-noise specs zoom f2?
I don’t know. But I thought this combo would do better. I have done some other recordings this summer I will try to put together and see what happens.

Thanks a lot for the video, it's perfect!!! I'm trying to get one ball with real anti-burst sistem here in Brazil, but all seems to be like the blue one that you show. I'm keeping looking for one quality ball here. Thanks for this test!
ofcourse the blue ball would explode this way you stabed gently the grey ball and even left the screw inside a little bit therefore the outcome
you deserve to get hurt, if you squat on a inflatable ball. the stupidity is strong with this guy.
Mange tak.

My girl loves my big Swiss ball
HOW BIG IS YOUR BALL
How big is your ball
Vibram five fingers there... I am not alone.
Hello dear Alun, Thank you for your very important and informative tests and video but please wear knee pads and safety glasses next time.
Thanks for the video. I'm pregnant and would hate for the ball to burst. I have heard of balls just popping at the gym while not in use, probably from over inflation. While I don't think I will be rolling it over a sharp object its good to get peace of mind.
That video is awesome. I considered it an infomercial on safe swiss ball training. I won't use my swiss ball in any of the following locations: - A crypt full of scopions with sharp tails - can you imagine what would happen? - A building site - I'd also want to ensure I'm not wearing womens shoes too. - Upon a bed of nails - unless I'd spent twice the money on one of the expensive ones.
thats my local bowl haha!
i went there today and when your standing onto of it it feels like your onto of a building. 1:53 !!!!!!!!
I think I bought the same one you show in this video (the blue one) a few days ago. At least it didn't make a loud explosion noise that could screw up ones ears, that's what I was most afraid of
0:34
if the Swiss Ball bursted when he was squating with dumbells his swiss balls would burst as well
Touch of Scotland in his accent.
if the ball exploded you hope you dont drop those dumbbells on your other balls so they dont explode
i guess it depends on the force of the puncture. you stabbed the gray one slow but put more force in the blue one.
if the ball did blow out and he hit the ground in less then a second, i would not be stabbing a screwdriver into it, for all he knows when he falls he will lose the screwdriver and it will go up is ass on impact :P
Can you imagine.. what would happen if the ball had exploded? No I can't why don't you show, it would probably make this video 100 times better but a nice review none the less :L
Pernille ????
You are lucky that you didn't jab your balls with the ice pick on the second balls
