A field recorder with redundancies and functions galore, the F8 is meant for pros and sound designers that need reliability and portability. The F8 is able to record at 24-bit/192 kHz while also holding built-in limiters for overload protection. If you’re concerned about matching up audio and video with this field recorder, don’t be. There’s some seriously impressive tech built in to the operation of the time code function which generates time code at 0.2ppm accuracy. Lastly, its 8 XLR combo preamps make this the smallest field recorder ever to have that many, so kudos.
