Excellent recorder overall.
Style: Recorder/Mixer
I bought this recorder after trying and returning a Sound Devices MixPre 6 ii as the MixPre had a few flaws that I couldn't get used to. Having used the F6 a few times now I find it to be every bit as good as the MixPre, except for the peerless preamps that Sound Devices have perfected over their many years as a top notch Pro Audio supplier. The F6 has a more sterile sound than the richness of the MixPre, but that suited me for my purposes. The F6 is easily set up to your liking using the clear and easy to follow menu system. And, if you choose 32-bit, the F6 will record everything from near-silence to deafening with no clipping. All you have to do is use compression in your editing program to bring both extremes out clearly and with no distortion. The F6 is much more efficient power-wise than the MixPre, and the AA battery option is actually viable, compared to the power hungry MixPre, which will demolish a set of AA's in less than a half-hour. There is a holder built in for the option to use a Sony L-type battery which will last for hours and hours. You can also power it via a Micro USB cable and a power pack if you wish. The F6 offers Timecode in and out. The only real downside to this recorder is the placement of the 1/4" screw hole for a tripod or to mount on a camera. It is at the very back of the unit to allow for the AA battery sled, and this means the connection bears a whole lot of the weight on it and can be wobbly. The menu offers a great many choices of recording modes and input options and is easily run through, although the small buttons means no gloves on when doing this. All in all a great little recorder, very powerful for its small size, and is a great choice for anyone trying to up their audio game from a camera's included audio.

Seriously impressive!
Style: Recorder/Mixer
I don't usually write reviews, but when I saw that this had only 1 rating and 1-star, I had to hop on here and share my experience. First of all, Kellard's was super quick with shipping, and they are a verified seller (I checked with Zoom's headquarters before ordering). Second, I did a "shootout" between this and my Apollo Twin Duo interface ($800-900), coupled with an AKG-414 microphone($900). I did a comparison between the two on my youtube channel - Josh Wright Piano TV - if you'd like to check it out. I was BLOWN AWAY at the capabilities of the zoom, and liked the audio every bit as much as the Apollo, perhaps even better. It's a much more capable device from a tech perspective as well, with 6 inputs, 32-bit float recording (which is why I purchased this in the first place), and Dual A/D converters. I originally bought an Zoom H6 and was not impressed at all, so I opted for the F6 and am more than satisfied with this purchase, and highly recommend it to anyone wanting an extremely compact setup with incredible sound quality and tech capabilities. I'm excited to use this to record my solo and orchestra performances. Thanks Zoom for making such an incredible product at an extremely affordable price!

Best equipment purchase of 2024
Style: Recorder/Mixer
As a low budget high quality videographer, sound is very important and this device paired with decent microphones is a god-send for this one man production team. The F6 fit perfectly into my workflow and has provided excellent audio improving my overall quality of production.

Great Field Recorder
Style: Recorder/Mixer
I primarily use this recorder for doing on-location video work. It is an excellent piece of professional-level gear. There are plenty of options for any recording.

32 Bit float is a game changer
Style: Recorder/Mixer
32 bit float is a game changer. I bought the Zoom F6 with the case. As a filmmaker, we all know that your movie is only as good as its sound/audio I don't know how I survived without the Zoom F6. My audio has NEVER sounded better. From the super loud dialogue to the whispers., this device pics it all up. Keep in mind that the Zoom F6 is not set to 32 bit float out of the box. You have to go into the settings and change it to 32 bit float. It also takes external timecode devices, such as The Deity TC1 device. I cannot say enough about the Zoom F6.

Not what I expected, problems right out the gate. . . .
Style: Recorder/Mixer
First time using, brand new F6 and cables. One of the XLR cables got stuck. It might as well been welded in there it was impossible to remove. I had a few other experienced tapers try to remove it and the sound engineer at the event we were at. No dice, I had to cut the brand new cable and dissect the XLR cable end to finally get it out but it's clear the input on the F6 is damaged/broken. Next time out using the F6, now one input down, everything went OK. Then the next day I go to remove the SD card and noticed one of my volume knobs is missing! Those things are practically glued on there, I can't imagine one just falling off. Brand new recorder, only used two times, and I've already got knobs falling off, this shouldn't be happening. I will be contacting Zoom this week for warranty and to send it in for repairs. I'm hoping Zoom just sends me a new unit considering all the issues I've been having with this one but one can only wish. It's already bad enough I lost a brand new cable and now have to send a brand new unit in for repairs. I guess we'll see what happens. I'll update this review afterwards based on the outcome. . . .
