    Zoom F6 Field Recorder

    Capture The Calm And The Storm

    The Zoom F6 is a professional field recorder to featuring 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.

    Features

    • 6-channel/14-track field audio recorder/mixer
    • High quality mic preamps with up to 75 dB gain and less than -127 dBu EIN

    • Switchable +4dB inputs with mic/line options
    zoom,f6

    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!

    zoom,f6

    For Those Hard to Reach Places

    Rugged enough to withstand the most demanding scenarios and small enough to fit into the tightest spaces, the F6 will become your go-to recorder.

    Mic Preamps

    The F6 is equipped with six professional-grade preamps. Featuring a super-low noise floor (-127 dBu EIN), high gain (up to 75 dB), and selectable mic/line levels for each input, the F6 is built for location sound.

    Precision Time Code

    Keep your tracks perfectly synced even when you power down for lunch. On or off, the F6’s Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator (TCXO) generates time code at 0.2 ppm accuracy.

    Advanced Look-Ahead Hybrid Limiters

    When recording in 24-bit, the F6 uses advanced look-ahead hybrid limiters to provide overload protection. By adding a 1-millisecond delay, the limiters “look ahead” anticipating clipping before it’s recorded.

    Zoom AutoMix

    Zoom AutoMix lets you keep your eyes on the action by automatically adjusting the levels of your mix to reduce ambient sound.

    The F6’s F Control APP lets you monitor signals, adjust levels, trigger transport controls, enter metadata and more from your iPhone or iPad via Bluetooth.*

    The F6’s Ambisonics mode offers precision A-to-B decoding and balanced gain linking, enabling you to capture spatial audio for VR, AR and more. Download the FREE Zoom Ambisonics Player software to decode and edit your 360-audio with ease.

    Monitor What Matters

    Use the F6 and your headphones to keep tabs on your tracks pre- or post-fader. Check levels, route signals to the left or right and set alert tones for battery and recording status.

    This is my first recording device as I have been doing our podcast and videos with the onboard mic. So I broke down and made this purchase, and I’m very pleased with how well it performs. Certainly does a lot of things that I am not trained on. However, the documentation is easy to read, and there are plenty of online videos to answer questions that you might have. I ran multiple Mics and had actually no problems. One thing I’ve learned is that if you lose audio did you have a real problem. So this provided me with the ability to do redundancy which I learn is important fortunately, the easy way.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Seriously impressive!
    Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2019
    I don't usually write reviews, but when I saw that this had only 1 rating and 1-star, I had to hop on here and share my experience. First of all, Kellard's was super quick with shipping, and they are a verified seller (I checked with Zoom's headquarters before ordering). Second, I did a "shootout" between this and my Apollo Twin Duo interface ($800-900), coupled with an AKG-414 microphone($900). I did a comparison between the two on my youtube channel - Josh Wright Piano TV - if you'd like to check it out. I was BLOWN AWAY at the capabilities of the zoom, and liked the audio every bit as much as the Apollo, perhaps even better. It's a much more capable device from a tech perspective as well, with 6 inputs, 32-bit float recording (which is why I purchased this in the first place), and Dual A/D converters. I originally bought an Zoom H6 and was not impressed at all, so I opted for the F6 and am more than satisfied with this purchase, and highly recommend it to anyone wanting an extremely compact setup with incredible sound quality and tech capabilities. I'm excited to use this to record my solo and orchestra performances. Thanks Zoom for making such an incredible product at an extremely affordable price!
