Overview

Innovative field recorder design with high resolution 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 multitrack field recorder 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.

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. It's equipped with six high-quality preamps and features a super-low noise floor (-127dBu EIN), high gain (up to 75dB) and selectable mic/line levels for each input, making it great for professional sound.

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.

Files and Formats

The F6 can record in 32-bit float up to 96kHz, 24-bit up to 192kHz or both simultaneously in BWF-compatible WAV formats.

Metadata

Cataloging files with the F6 is quick and easy. Enter track name, scene names, notes, and more in both BWF and iXML.

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.

iOS Wireless App

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. An optional BTA-1 is required (sold separately).

Fine-Tune Your Mix

The Zoom F-Control (FRC-8) gives you more flexibility in the field. With 60 mm faders and controls for trim, pan and track-arming, the FRC-8 is a must-have for any professional filmmaker.

Ambisonics Audio

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