Mobile recording at its best
The Zoom F8n Pro is a professional multitrack recorder for use in every conceivable mobile scenario. It impresses with shiny, field-ready workmanship, studio-quality electronics, an intuitive user interface, and fail-safes at the power supply and data recording levels. The ultra-low noise preamps combined with 32bit floating point sampling provide an exceptionally wide usable dynamic range, eliminating the need to re-level for volume fluctuations and allowing the system to be driven at significantly lower overall levels. Sudden sound events can thus also be captured in excellent quality and do not render the recording unusable due to clipping.
Made for professional work
Using industry-standard interfaces, the field recorder can be integrated into modern camera and mobile setups. It features a pair of time code I/O, a 4-pin Hirose connector for connection to external battery packs, and protruding handles for strap attachment. High-pass filters, phase inversion, and limiters can be applied to each individual channel, and a mid-side converter is available in the internal routing matrix. In addition, a microphone from the Zoom capsule series can be connected via Zoom's 10-pin connector. The prerecord function allows continuous recording of audio up to 6 seconds before the record button is pressed.
Excellent field recorder, beautiful audio when paired with Senni 416s. Equipment dropped one star as the unit came with no UK plug which was very annoying.
