Zoom F6 Multitrack Field Recorder

Introducing the Zoom F6 Multitrack Field Recorder which features the pairing of 32-bit float recording and dual A/D converters which delivers pure dynamic range. The F6 arrives with 6 inputs, Zoom’s solid time code, multiple power options and wireless control. The Zoom F6 is the field recorder you've been looking for.

Mic Preamps

Installed in the Zoom F6 are six pro-grade preamps. With high gain to 75 dB, a low-floor of -127 dBu EIN, plus a selectable set of mic/line levels for each input.

Advanced Look-Ahead Hybrid Limiters

The F6 uses advanced look-ahead hybrid limiters. These limiters provide overload protection while the F6 is recording in 24-bit. This works by adding a 1-millisecond delay while the limiters "look ahead" for clipping before it's been recorded.

Precision Time Code

F6’s Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator (TCXO) generates a time code at 0.2 ppm whether the unit is on or off.

Zoom AutoMix

Auto adjustment of the levels by the Zoom AutoMix function allows you concentrate on the business of recording.

iOS Wireless Control

Need to step back? The F6's F Control APP allows you to monitor signals, adjust levels, trigger transport controls, enter metadata plus more using your iPhone or iPad via Bluetooth.
