RECORDERS CAPTURE AUDIO H3-VR CAPTURES REALITY
Whether you’re a game developer, filmmaker or musician, virtual reality is the undeniable future of content creation. While 360-video is exploding in popularity, the ability to easily create 360-audio has lagged behind…until now.

This product listing is for just the Zoom H3-VR. Please see the included tab for what this product comes with. Stand, camera etc, are not included.

OUTPUT VOLUME CONTROLS (A)
The H3-VR’s line out volume control lets you adjust the output volume to a DSLR camera, additional headphone, etc.

HEADPHONE JACK (B)
A dedicated headphone jack allows for stereo binaural monitoring of your audio while recording. 

DYNAMIC DISPLAY (C)
A directionally-responsive LCD screen provides a bright, clear display even when upside-down.

TRANSPORT CONTROLS (D)
The Home, Play/Pause, Forward, Reverse and Menu buttons are positioned for quick access.

POWER/HOLD BUTTON (E)
Lock your settings on the H3-VR while recording using the unit’s Hold function.

PRECISE INTERNAL CLOCK (F)
The H3-VR’s highly accurate internal clock with 0.5 ppm discrepancy reduces audio/visual drift.

SLATE TONE/SOUND MARKER (G)
Using the slate tone enables you to easily calibrate the H3-VR and camera audio levels. Use the sound marker to output a tone when recording starts to make syncing audio and video easy.

BUILT-IN LIMITER (H)
The H3-VR’s advanced onboard limiter offers distortion-free signal at high volumes.

LOW CUT FILTER (I)
The H3-VR’s adjustable low cut filter removes unwanted low-end frequencies.

INPUT VOLUME GAIN (J)
With the single-knob gain control, you can easily adjust the gains of all four mic capsules simultaneously for accurate, balanced 360-degree audio.

POWER OPTIONS (K)
Two AA batteries can power the H3-VR for over 11 hours. For longer shoots, the H3-VR can also use portable USB batteries or be plugged in via an AC adapter.

3.5MM LINE OUT (L)
The H3-VR fits right in with your existing gear, featuring a dedicated line out for a wide range of 360 cameras or other external devices.

LIGHTWEIGHT/PORTABLE DESIGN (M)
Weighing less 5 ounces (120g), the H3-VR is the perfect Ambisonics recorder to take on the go. And since H3-VR records directly to an SD card, there’s no need for external gear.
