Rated 5 out of 5

Quality build and quality sound

I'm a high school cinema studies instructor and purchased these for my juniors who are just learning to record sound. These things are AMAZING! Student-proof recording for amazing quality. If you don't have the money to hire a professional sound engineer to record on set, or you're more of a one-person band with video production, do yourself a favor and grab one!

Quality build and quality sound

By ACCOUNTS P.

I'm a high school cinema studies instructor and purchased these for my juniors who are just learning to record sound. These things are AMAZING! Student-proof recording for amazing quality. If you don't have the money to hire a professional sound engineer to record on set, or you're more of a one-person band with video production, do yourself a favor and grab one!

Take your audio recording to the next level with the Zoom F3 2-Channel/2-Track Field Recorder, bundled with a Bluetooth Adapter. This compact yet powerful device is engineered to capture the full dynamic range of sound, from the faintest whispers to the most thunderous explosions, thanks to its advanced 32-bit float recording capability. Its compact design ensures that the F3 can be discreetly positioned in any setting, while still delivering up to 192 kHz of pristine audio quality.

Designed for dynamic environments, the Zoom F3 eliminates the need for manual gain adjustments, allowing you to focus entirely on capturing the scene. Whether you're dealing with fluctuating sound levels on set or in the field, this recorder ensures your audio remains free from clipping, providing you with flexible post-production options for both extremely low and high sound levels.

The F3 is equipped with dual A/D converters and low-noise preamps, a hallmark of Zoom's professional F-Series recorders, guaranteeing exceptional audio fidelity in any situation. Built to withstand the rigors of fieldwork, the F3 features durable side bars, a standard tripod mount, and slide-resistant rubber feet, making it easy to integrate into your gear setup or conceal within a scene. Its robust metal casing and locking XLR connectors are designed to endure a variety of challenging environments.

Monitor your recordings with precision using the F3's real-time waveform display. The recorder's headphone output allows for direct audio monitoring, while the line output can be connected to your camera or other equipment for seamless integration. The F3 is designed for extended use, offering multiple power options to suit long shoots or remote fieldwork. With two alkaline AA batteries, enjoy over eight hours of continuous operation, or opt for unlimited power via the AD-17 AC adapter or USB power supply.

Store your recordings on a micro SD card with a capacity of up to 1TB, enabling you to capture over 180 hours of audio at the highest sample rate and bit-depth. The F3 also offers versatile control options, allowing you to manage recordings from up to 30 feet away using the F3 control app available for iOS and Android devices.

As an audio interface, the Zoom F3 connects to your computer or iOS device via USB, supporting recording or streaming of up to two channels in crystal-clear 24-bit/96 kHz resolution. The loopback function enhances your streaming capabilities by combining your computer's audio with the F3's inputs, ensuring a complete and professional sound for your broadcasts.
