INPUT CONTROLS
Each input features a built-in preamp with a dedicated gain control knob and a 6-segment LED level meter.
USB PORT
A USB port enables firmware updates, file transfer, and allows the F8n Pro to be used as an 8-in/4-out USB audio interface operating at sample rates up to 32-bit float / 96kHz.
INPUTS
The F8n Pro provides 8 discrete inputs with locking Neutrik XLR/TRS combo connectors, allowing you to plug in any microphone, wireless pack, or line level device. Any input can also be used as a camera return.
SD CARD SLOTS
Record on two SD/SDHC/SDXC cards, up to 1 TB each, simultaneously, allowing you to instantly backup or split recordings.
HEADPHONE JACK
The unit’s 1/4" headphone jack also comes with dedicated volume control.
MAIN OUTPUTS
The F8n Pro provides four outputs: two Main Outs (on balanced TA3 mini-XLR jacks) for connection to external mixers and processing devices; and two Sub Outs (on a single unbalanced 1/8" stereo mini-jack) for connection to a camera. The F8n Pro also provides a selectable +4 dBu output.
DC POWER
The F8n Pro can be powered by a 9-18V external DC power supply.
TIME CODE IN/OUT
Timecode can be generated internally or transmitted from an external timecode generator.
10-PIN MIC CONNECTOR
Our proprietary 10-pin connector enables the use of interchangeable Zoom mic capsules, with optional extension cables that allow for remote positioning
