Product Information

About

FIELD-RECORDING KIT — H2essential RECORDER, STAND ADAPTER, BOOM STAND, WINDSCREEN, AND AC POWER: The retail H2essential ships with batteries and a USB-C cable — nothing to mount it, nothing to power it, nothing to block wind. This bundle pairs the Zoom H2essential with the MA-2 mic-stand adapter, the On-Stage MS7701B 36-64 in boom stand, the APH-2e accessory pack, and a Gator standard mic clip. Podcasters, journalists, musicians, and sermon recorders — hit record today.
MULTI-MIC HANDY RECORDER WITH UNCLIPPABLE 32-BIT FLOAT AUDIO: Built for podcasters, mobile journalists, field recordists, and content creators who can't always set input gain, the H2essential captures with floating-point math that resolves peaks above 0 dBFS and normalizes quiet takes in post. Three internal microphones — two cardioid plus one bi-directional — deliver nine pickup patterns from a single body. Never miss a take.
THREE INTERNAL MICROPHONES + NINE PICKUP PATTERNS FOR PODCASTING, INTERVIEWING, AND FIELD RECORDING: Two cardioid capsules face front and rear, one bi-directional capsule faces side-to-side. Dual-cardioid mode handles two-host podcasts on one body. Mid-side mode captures dialogue with adjustable room ambience. Four-channel surround captures every direction at once for sound design and immersive recording.
USB-C CLASS-COMPLIANT AUDIO INTERFACE FOR STREAMING, CALLS, AND DAW RECORDING: Plug the H2essential into a Mac, Windows, iOS, or USB-C tablet and it shows up as the audio input — no drivers, no app, no setup. Use it for OBS, video calls, Riverside, podcasting apps, GarageBand, and every major DAW. The recorder captures to microSD and streams to the computer at the same time, so a live take has a local backup.
ON-STAGE MS7701B 36 TO 64 IN TRIPOD STAND WITH 30 IN REMOVABLE EURO BOOM: Single-handed steel Euro clutch locks angle without re-tightening every adjustment. 23 in base spread keeps the stand stable with the recorder boom-mounted overhead. The MA-2 adapter threads into the recorder's 1/4-20 base and drops into the stand's 5/8-27 mic clip. Center-stage, in front of a guitar amp, over a desk — exactly where a microphone would go.
WSH-2e HAIRY WINDSCREEN, AD-17 USB-C AC ADAPTER, PADDED SHELL CASE, AND USB-C CABLE: The APH-2e windscreen knocks down outdoor wind noise without altering the recorder's stereo image — cutouts in the cover keep every control accessible. The AD-17 USB-C wall adapter runs the H2essential off mains power for long podcast sessions, all-day field shoots, and fixed-position streaming setups. Padded case protects the recorder in the bag. USB-C cable handles data, USB audio, and charging.
COMPATIBLE WITH MAC, WINDOWS, iOS DEVICES, USB-C TABLETS, EVERY ZOOM HANDY RECORDER MOUNT, AND ANY 5/8-27 MIC STAND: The H2essential is class-compliant USB audio on every major desktop and mobile OS. The MA-2 adapter fits every Zoom Handy Recorder (H1essential, H2essential, H4essential, H6essential, M4, F2, H2n, H4n, H5, H6) so the stand setup carries forward if you upgrade. microSD up to 2TB stores days of continuous audio.
