The included XYH-6 XY microphone module is made up of two matched unidirectional condenser microphones and is intended for capturing stereo audio. The module allows you to adjust the angle of the two mics to either 90 degrees, or a wider 120 degrees.

The MSH-6 Mid-side Omni Directional Capsule stereo microphone module has a unidirectional mic which faces forward (mid), and a bi-directional mic set perpendicular to it (side)

In addition to the included XY & Omni-directional mics, the H6 is equipped with four XLR/TRS combo inputs for connecting external mic/line sources such as microphones or mixers. All four inputs and each of the mic modules are equipped with their own preamps with dedicated gain knobs that are easily accessible whether you have the unit mounted to your camera, or strapped over your shoulder. Also, each of the four combo inputs has its own -20dB pad.

The recorder allows you to record up to six channels at once and stores them to SDXC memory cards up to 128GB in size. It also features a backup-record option that tracks a duplicate of the left and right channels with -12db input gain. This means that if you find that you have tracked your main audio too loud and that distortion has occurred in your audio, you will have a backup stereo mix with 12 db more headroom as a fail-safe.
