H5 : Awesome for loud bands

I use this thing with my stoner/psych metal band. We're still experimenting how to get the best quality but honestly it sounds awesome as-is. Very life-like ADC and DAC. The mics' low-end could be just a bit better though, but easily fixed in editing.

The capsules can handle a lot of loudness, the interface is intuitive, love this thing. I had it clip on me once on a drum peak but you honestly can't even really tell. The XLR inputs on bottom do not lock, so can be a little loose depending on the cable.

Right now we are experimenting to get full recordings with this up to release quality and it has the potential. We are drums, guitar, bass.

Getting the low-end centered using the bass DI and just mixing it in until it sounds center. I'm thinking of also using a kick mic to fill it out. The cymbals sound really good and the 4x12 guitar cab very direct. The room itself is not ideal for recording but surprisingly good. I've recorded in much worse spaces for student projects.

If you really want you can even apply effects on this thing and edit on the go. Seems like the ultimate all-rounder but not seeing a lot of reports for band recording.
