Professional audio recording demands precision that leaves no room for compromise, and the F8n Pro delivers exactly that with its revolutionary 32-bit float technology. This 8-channel, 10-track field recorder captures every nuance from the subtlest dialogue whisper to thunderous engine roars without ever clipping, thanks to dual A/D converters and professional-grade preamps that eliminate the need for constant gain adjustments. The unit records in BWF-compatible WAV formats up to 192kHz/32-bit resolution, whilst offering comprehensive signal routing, phase inversion, mid-side decoding, and high-pass filtering to tackle wind noise and unwanted frequencies.
Built for demanding field work, the F8n Pro excels in complex recording scenarios with its 8 discrete inputs featuring locking Neutrik XLR/TRS combo connectors and high-quality mic preamps delivering up to 75dB gain. The Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator maintains perfect sync with 0.2ppm accuracy even when powered down, whilst Zoom AutoMix automatically balances levels to reduce ambient sound. Three output options cater to external devices, headphones, and camera connections, with flexible pre and post-fader monitoring capabilities.
Extended location shoots become manageable with multiple power options including 8 AA batteries for 5-hour operation, external 9-18V DC battery packs via 4-pin Hirose connector, or the included AD-19 AC adaptor. Dual SD card slots support up to 1TB each for redundant recording security, whilst the 2.4" full-colour LCD provides clear visual feedback. The F8n Pro doubles as an 8-in/4-out USB audio interface for studio integration, and pairs with the free F8 Control App for iOS and Android devices, offering wireless remote control and metadata entry via Bluetooth connectivity.
