ZOOM F8N PRO

ZOOM’S F8N PRO – NEW FLAGSHIP FIELD RECORDER

Filmmakers and sound professionals know the importance of sharp, cleanaudio in storytelling. From the click of a seatbelt to the roar of an engine, the Zoom F8n Pro has 8 inputs that captures full dynamic range using 32-bit float technology.

CREATE IMMERSIVE AUDIO

With 8 inputs and 10 tracks, the F8n Pro can capture the most complex audio, expanding your options so that you can create sonic magic in post.

EXPLOSIVE AUDIO

32-Bit Float is a game-changer. The F8n Pro uses dual A/D converters and professional-grade preamps to capture clip-free audio –without ever needing to adjust gain.

Formatting Options

The F8n Pro records in BWF-compatible WAV formats up to 32-bit resolution and at sample rates up to 192 kHz.

Built-In Processing

The F8n Pro features flexible signal routing from all inputs to all outputs, phase inversion and Mid-Side decoding. It also provides high-pass filtering to reduce the sound of wind and other noise. Input and output delays are also available.

State-of-the-Art Timecode

Keep your tracks perfectly synced even when you power down. On or off, the F8n Pro’s Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator (TCXO) generates time code at 0.2 ppm accuracy.

Stay Focused With Zoom Automix

Zoom AutoMix lets you keep your eyes on the action by automatically adjusting the levels of your mix to reduce ambient sound.

Full Metadata Entry

The track name, scene names, notes, and more can be entered directly from the unit or via the Zoom F8 Control App for iOS.

SIX SECOND OF AUDIO

The pre-record function allows you to check your environment and settings, capturing up to 6 seconds of audio before you hit the RECORD button

RECORD AND STREAM, TOGETHER

When connected to your computer, the F8n Pro can be used as a 8-in / 4-out audio interface. Record and stream in 32-bit float / 96khz while simultaneously recording to SD cards.

Go Mobile

The F8 Control App lets you monitor signals, adjust levels, trigger transport controls, enter metadata and more from your Android device, iPhone or iPad via Bluetooth.

EXPANDED CONTROL
