F6 : Pocket sized recorder that does it all

5 years ago

considering it's size it's quite versatile. Only The knobs are a bit fiddly, but there is an app or mix panel if you need more robust control. Love the fact that you can record at 32 bit recording in 192 khz, perfect for my foley recordings... and amazing fact for this price range. That with the dual preamps make it so clipping is really no more problem if you run into it at some unexpected moment. 6 inputs is more then enough for most of my cases. I love the fact that there is build in timecode generator, so i can sync it up perfectly with video if i need to. You can buy a jack to BNC cable to drive a professional GenLock system like we did in our studio. Plenty of battery options provided, incl usb C. Menu is easy enough. I did wish they put the full manual in, there was only a 'quick start' with very brief explanations of every function. For every semi-pro this is a no brainer for the cost in my opinion. Hope they bring out an android app as it's only Mac which honestly blows my mind.
