The Zoom F8 is an 8-channel/10-track field audio recorder/mixer designed for professional filmmaking and sound design. The F8 supports 24-bit/192kHz audio and features dual-channel recording of separate files at different audio levels (for use as a backup when loud noises distort the primary recording). Record up to 10 tracks simultaneously, or up to 8 tracks when recording at 24-bit 192 kHz resolution. For longer recordings, the Zoom F8's two SDXC card slots can be used simultaneously. They also function as card readers when the Zoom F8 is connected to a computer via USB. This recorder supports Zoom's interchangeable microphone capsules.
