Sound for Video Session: ZOOM F8n Pro Initial Look & Q&A

In this week's Sound for Video Session, we take our first look at the new ZOOM F8n Pro 32-bit float audio recorder. We'll get you some audio samples, take a look at the features, and cover the types of situations where it may be most useful. Then we answer your sound for video related questions. To learn more about 32-bit float wide dynamic range audio, please have a watch of our previous session on the topic: https://youtu.be/x4Kc_IFgRXo If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses at https://school.learnlightandsound.com including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F6, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders.
