I have a Zoom f8n for sale, lightly used, in great condition. Comes with its original packaging and a CMF-8 mounting plate for mounting the field recorder onto a tripod. The Zoom F8n's best features include its hybrid limiters, Mid-Side decoding, high-pass filters, flexible routing, dual SD card recording, and the wireless F Control app for remote operation, all of which offer professional features. Comes with the upgraded Hirose power supply instead of the external DC input.
Key Strengths of the F8n:
Advanced Limiting: Features hybrid limiters for excellent dynamic range control, preventing clipping.
Built-in Processing: Offers Mid-Side decoding, phase inversion, and high-pass filtering to clean up audio in the field.
Flexible I/O: Selectable line/mic inputs on XLRs and switchable +4dBu/-10dB main outputs for camera compatibility.
Dual SD Card Recording: Records up to 24-bit/192kHz audio to two SD cards simultaneously for backup.
Wireless Control: The F Control App provides full remote control via Bluetooth LE from iOS/Android devices.
Versatile Power: Runs on 8 AAs, an external DC input, or a Hirose connector (supporting higher voltages than the original F8).
Timecode: Built-in timecode I/O (BNC) for easy sync with cameras.
Metadata: Includes metadata, slate mic, and tone generator for streamlined post-production.
