Zoom F8 Multi-Track Field Recorder.<\/p>\n

\n

The Zoom F8 Multi-Track Field Recorder<\/b> is designed for professional and enthusiast recording applications on set and in the field, including music, filmmaking, and electronics news gathering (ENG). Designed to be carried by a shoulder strap or in a bag, the unit features eight analog input channels with lockable XLR\/TRS combo jacks that provide +75 dB maximum input gain, and support for +4 dB inputs with an EIN of -127 dBu or less. It can record up to 10 tracks simultaneously (channels 1-8 plus a stereo mix), or up to eight channels when recording at the A\/D converter’s maximum 24-bit 192 kHz resolution.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, you can perform dual-channel recording of separate files at lower volume levels to ensure you have backup recordings to use when unexpected loud noises distort the primary recording. A newly designed limiter provides up to 10 dB of headroom. The unit supports SMPTE time code input and output. Included in the outputs is a powerful 100 mW + 100 mW headphone jacks as well as the MAIN OUT 1\/2 and SUB OUT 1\/2 jacks so you can send the audio signal to a video camera or other device while monitoring with headphones.<\/p>\n

The unit’s internal mixing capability enables flexible routing, and the inclusion of individually selectable +24V\/+48V phantom power ensures you can use your favorite condenser microphones.<\/p>\n

Power to the recorder can be supplied in one of three ways: via AA batteries, an AC adapter, or a 9 to 16V external DC power supply. Two SDXC card slots can be used simultaneously for recording even longer sessions, and can also be used as card readers when connected to a computer via USB.<\/p>\n

When operating via USB, the unit can be used in a 2-in\/2-out configuration as well as an 8-in\/4-out audio interface (driver required for windows). A built-in slate mic allows you to make voice memos and the unit’s slate tone can be used to confirm specific levels.<\/p>\n

Among the most innovative features of the recorder is support for the company’s interchangeable microphone capsules.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
