32 Channel H.264 Digital Video Recorder

[17 μm] Excellent camera, lens, and gimbal. Have only used h.264 codec even so the images are quite nice. Here is a link to some video of the bear mountain bridge i shot with no post color manipulation. https://youtu.be/_vV2VKpMios

[Dual Channel] Been a while since I have run AMD but I am not disappointed. In Davinci resolve it can encode 1080p30 h.264 video at 3x realtime speed. It can encode 4k30 h.264 in realtime or sometimes a little faster. I didn't use the stock cooler and opted for an overkill Noctua one instead.

[23] This little thing is super awesome! its not very bright, and i wish it had a lower codec like h.264. but it does its job and is simple and cheap! Also I hope they come out with a p-tap power option, that would be nice..

[Standard] I use this cable to connect a Midas 32 channel digital stage box with a mixer, in a variety of venues, for recording gigs that generally last one evening. That makes for a lot of setup and tear-down. ProCat-5 cable is expensive, and takes a week or so for delivery, but it's worth every bit. This cable has a rubber jacket that is very tough. Best of all, it lays dead flat, making it easy to keep out of the way or tape down in traffic areas. I keep 100' to 300' on reels, but small stuff (25', 50') is easier to carry in taped coils. I keep a few Neutrik Ethercon unions on hand to combine lengths. I have some hard jacket cable, which is supposed to have better transmission. However I have no data issues with Procat-5 cable at all.

[Black] The Zoom F6 digital audio recorder is a solid unit for field and studio usage with a computer. It has excellent dual analog-digital converters and 32 bit float as well as 32 bit dual - 24 bit record modes which can be adjusted in most Digital audio workstations. This gives this recorder incredible dynamic range for audio. It can record at 192khz/24 bit or 32 bit float or 96khz 32 bit and 24 bit stereo mix. It also has a timecode input and I have successfully jam-synced a hardwired Tentacle Sync to keep sync with the other Tentacle sync units. Since it is so small, it is a great portable field recorder unit with the ability to be powered via three different ways! Four AA alkaline/NiCad batteries, Sony NP-F liIons (have used F770s and F970) and power banks with USB-C. This is great as a portable field recorder and since it is so light and I purchased it with the Zoom PCF-F6 carry case, which it can be worn as a belt or over the shoulder. Six XLR inputs make this an excellent value as a portable digital field recorder. I have used this for narration and voice-over recordings and am very happy with the results and workflow.

[Stand Adapter] I'm using this recorder as part of a single-shooter video rig shooting gymnastics events for a YouTube channel called Grips. Chalk. Flip. This recorder works well with my setup, which includes a Nikon Z6 connected via HDMI to a BlackMagic Video Assist 12g shooting in 10-bit N-Log in ProRes HQ. I'm using 5-6 of the inputs on the Zoom, feeding the mix to the Z6 via one stereo channel and a free run clock timecode from the Zoom F6 to the other stereo channel. Both audio channels are then fed to the BMVA via HDMI. Feeding through the camera rather than direct to the BMVA helps with the HDMI latency from the Z6 by keeping the audio and video in sync. I sync my dailies using Tentacle Sync Studio, which is quick and exports easily into Final Cut Pro X. The 32-bit float is great, too, because in this setup, I can't pay much attention to the audio levels apart from what I hear in the mix, so I don't have to worry about clipping as I can fix it later.

[0.1 lb] The battery is for my son's digital video recorder. It was used extensively for only about 10 days and worked very well, no complains. What will happen later we don't know but hope for best.

[16 GB] This is the second mini stage box I have purchased (the first was the 32 channel installed at our church). We are a church plant who sets up and tears down every week. The mini stage box makes that process extremely simple and easy to use for brand new volunteers. All our gear is mounted into two racks (one front of house, the other sits on the stage). We simply pull one Cat5 cable between the two boxes, run xlr cables to powered speakers and we are ready to play. The the inputs/outputs are easy to program on an Si Expression board (or any other Soundcraft board). I would highly recommend this product. To purchase a high quality traditional snake, we would spend at least $700. So, the $1,000 price tag isn't too bad.

[≤ 4 pF] I bought this so I could hook my oscilloscope up to the output of my 32 channel analog mixer to set the maximum gain before distortion. Works like a charm. Highly recommended line of adapters.
