ZOOM F6 Multi-track Field Recorder FXR106

The Zoom F6 breaks new ground as the first professional field recorder to combine 32-bit float recording with dual AD converters, delivering unmatched dynamic range for location sound professionals. This innovative approach eliminates the constant battle with gain staging, allowing you to capture everything from explosive sound effects to whispered dialogue without clipping or losing detail in the noise floor. The F6’s six professional-grade preamps feature an exceptionally low noise floor of -127 dBu EIN and provide up to 75 dB of gain, making it perfectly suited for demanding field recording scenarios.

Built for reliability in challenging environments, the F6 maintains precision timecode accuracy at 0.2 ppm even when powered down, thanks to its Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator. The recorder offers flexible recording options including simultaneous 24-bit and 32-bit float capture up to 96 kHz, advanced look-ahead hybrid limiters for overload protection, and Zoom’s AutoMix technology for automatic level management. Professional workflow features include comprehensive metadata entry in BWF and iXML formats, plus dedicated Ambisonics mode for spatial audio applications.

The F6 provides exceptional versatility with multiple power options including AA batteries, Sony L-Series batteries, or AC adapter, plus wireless control via the F Control app for iOS devices. Additional functionality includes USB audio interface capability with simultaneous SD card recording, dedicated headphone monitoring, and support for SD cards up to 512 GB. This compact yet rugged recorder delivers professional results whether you’re working in tight spaces or harsh conditions.
