The Zoom F2 marks a new frontier in audio capabilities. It was only a matter of time until one of the major players in audio took the power of 32-bit float recording and shrunk it down in size. Zoom has done just that with the F2, a ridiculously small field recorder that can also be used with a lav, making it one of the most versatile recording devices of such size. What makes the F2 so unique, especially over the Tascam DR-10L, is that it includes 32-bit float recording. The latter is freaking amazing when it comes to audio. We talked about the benefits of 32-bit float recording when we reviewed the Sound Devices MixPre II recorders, and it's a feature found in the affordably priced Zoom F6. The Zoom F2 takes that dope tech and shrinks it down to a pocketable size. With 32-bit float recording, you don't have to worry about the level being too high or too low when it comes to capturing sound. You can literally set the level to whatever you want (besides 0 db) and you'll be able to recover and normalize the audio with compatible DAWs like Adobe Audition, Audacity, or iZotope. Read More...
