Zoom F8n Multitrack Field Recorder Audio for Video

The Zoom F8n Multitrack Field Recorder is built for professional audio capture in demanding production environments. It features eight XLR/TRS combination inputs, each powered by super low-noise mic preamps delivering up to 75 dB of gain with an exceptionally low equivalent input noise of less than -127 dBu. Recording at up to 24-bit/192 kHz across 10 tracks simultaneously, the F8n captures every nuance with studio-level fidelity. Advanced look-ahead hybrid limiters on each channel provide 10–20 dB of headroom, protecting recordings from unexpected volume spikes without audible artifacts.

Timecode is a standout feature of the F8n, with accuracy rated at 0.2 ppm whether the unit is powered on or off. Standard BNC connectors and support for drop frame, non-drop frame, and jam sync make it straightforward to integrate into multi-camera and multi-recorder workflows. Dual SD card slots enable simultaneous recording for backup or extended session length. The F8n also supports ambisonics mode and mid-side decoding, expanding its usefulness for immersive audio and advanced stereo techniques. Combined with the free Zoom F8 Control iOS app for wireless remote operation, the F8n provides a comprehensive, field-ready recording solution for film, broadcast, and music production professionals.
