Introduction
Thank you very much for purchasing a ZOOM Multitrack Field
Recorder. The has the following features:
• 8 analog input channels with super high-quality preamps
The 8 lockable XLR/TRS combo jacks provide high-quality analog
inputs with EIN of −127 dBu or less, +75dB maximum input gain and
support for +4dB input.
• PCM recording at up to 192kHz/24-bit resolution
• Recording of up to 10 tracks simultaneously
Inputs 1–8 and a stereo mix (left and right) can be recorded at the
same time (8 tracks when the sampling rate is 192 kHz).
• Dual channel recording of separate files at lower levels
simultaneously with ordinary recording (Inputs 1–4)
Using dual channel recording at a lower input level, you can create
backup recordings to use when unexpected loud noise causes regu-
lar recordings to distort, for example.
• Newly redesigned limiters for overload protection
With 10 dB of headroom, this limiter prevents distortion even more
than ordinary ones. The threshold can also be set to keep the signal
below that level.
• Time code with pinpoint accuracy
The utilizes a high-precision oscillator that generates time-
code with accuracy of 0.2ppm, ensuring rock-solid stability when
syncing audio and video.
• Outputs include a stereo headphone jack with a powerful
100mW amp as well as MAIN OUT 1/2 and SUB OUT 1/2 jacks
This allows you to send the audio signal to a video camera or other
device while monitoring with headphones.
• Built-in digital mixer with flexible signal routing
Prefader and postfader signals from inputs 1–8 can be freely routed
to any out puts.
• Phantom power (+24V/+48V) can be supplied
This can be turned on/off for each input separately.
• Three possible power sources—batteries, AC adapter and
an external DC power supply
In addition to AA batteries and an AC adapter, a 9-16V external DC
power supply can also be used.
• Double SDXC card slots
Simultaneous recording on 2 SD cards is possible, and support for
SDXC cards up to 512 GB enables long-duration recording. In addi-
tion, the can be used as a card reader by connecting to a
computer using USB.
• USB audio interface capabilities with up to 8 ins and 4 outs
The can be used not only as a 2-in/2-out audio interface, but
also as an 8-in/4-out audio interface (driver required for Windows).
• Other useful features
Other convenient functions include a built-in slate mic for voice
memos and a variable frequency slate tone generator to confirm lev-
els. There’s also both input and output delay, and pre-recording of up
to 6 seconds.
• ZOOM mic capsules can be connected
Use any ZOOM mic capsule instead of inputs 1/2.
Please read this manual carefully to fully understand the functions of
the so that you can make the most of it for many years. After
reading this manual, please keep it with the warranty in a safe place.

Mixer
The can record a total of 10 tracks simultaneously: 8 individual tracks with signals coming from Inputs 1–8 and a stereo
mix of these inputs on left and right tracks.
You can connect mics and the outputs of line-level devices such as keyboards, mixers, or instruments with active electronics
to Inputs 1–8 and record them to tracks 1–8. Alternatively, Inputs 1 and 2 can instead receive input from a ZOOM mic capsule
connected to the MIC IN connector.

Connecting mic capsules
A ZOOM mic capsule can be connected to the MIC IN connec-
tor on the back of the .
NOTE
• The mic capsule input is assigned to tracks 1/2.
• When a mic capsule is connected, Inputs 1/2 cannot be used.
Connecting and disconnecting mic capsules
1. Remove the protective caps from the and the
mic capsule or extension cable.
2. While pressing the side buttons on the mic capsule or
extension cable, connect it to the main unit, inserting
it completely.
3. To disconnect the mic capsule or extension cable, pull
it away from the main unit while simultaneously
pressing the buttons on its sides.
NOTE
• Do not use too much force when disconnecting. Doing so
could damage the mic capsule, extension cable or main
unit.
• Reattach the protective cap when a mic capsule is not
connected.
Stereo input
By enabling the stereo link for tracks 1/2, 3/4, 5/6 or 7/8, the
corresponding Inputs (1/2, 3/4, 5/6 or 7/8) can be handled as a
stereo pair. (→ P.24)
When linked, Input 1, 3, 5 or 7 becomes the left channel and
Input 2, 4, 6 or 8 becomes the right channel.
