F6 Multi Track Field Recorder 32-Bit Float Recording

Zoom F6 Multi Track Field Recorder 32-Bit Float Recording . The Zoom F6 is the first professional field recorder to feature both 32-bit float recording and dual AD converters, providing an unprecedented amount of dynamic range. With 6 inputs, Zoom’s solid time code, multiple power options and wireless control, the F6 is poised to be your new secret weapon.
32-Bit Float Recording
In the field, fluctuating dynamics can prove challenging. Loud sounds can cause clipping and quiet sounds can get lost in the noise. The F6 uses 32-bit float recording with dual A/D converters to capture both explosive and subtle sounds at full audio quality – without ever adjusting gain.

Features:

6-channel/14-track field audio recorder/mixer
6 discrete inputs with locking Neutrik XLR connectors
High quality mic preamps with up to 75 dB gain and less than -127 dBu
Switchable +4dB inputs with mic/line options
Advanced Look-Ahead Hybrid Limiters
Zoom AutoMix software
Accurate Time Code (0.2 ppm when on and when powered off) I/O on 3.5mm stereo mini; dropframe/non-drop formats with Jam Sync
Three different power supply options: 4x AA batteries, Sony L-Series batteries, or Zoom AD-17 12V AC Adapter (L-Series batteries not included)
3.5mm stereo mini unbalanced output jack
Dedicated headphone output (100 mW) with volume control SD/SDHC/SDXC card slot, up to 512 GB
Use as an 6-in/4-out USB audio interface (up to 96kHz)
Use as an audio interface and record to SD card simultaneously (up to 48kHz)
Free Zoom F Control App for iOS allows wireless remote control, file renaming, and metadata entry
