Very good review of the most challenging part of the F6. Your headphone routing explanation helped me to understand some issues, but one persists: Using a DAW ( Logic Pro), I can record directly to the audio track, using AIF and setting the headphone routing to USB1 Left and Right. But setting the headphone routing to the USB port automatically removed the routing of the headphones when I am speaking into the microphone. This is a simple setup, one cardioid mic, to the F6, connected to the iMac, audio ports on the mac and the Logic Pro setup all point to the F6,. If I remove the headphone routing from USB-1 to Port 1 Left-right, or the mix left right, I do not get playback from the app into my headphones. I am open to suggestions from the community. Thank you,
Perfect timing Chris!!! I need all the knowledge you can give me Production is ramping up and I need more hours with this tool and it shows, lol. Thank you for producing these.
I don’t have any specific brand for NPF batteries. I just look for good reviews / price on eBay and Amazon whenever I need a new one 😅. My best recommendation is to also get a dual USB-C based Charger. Makes life so much easier. 🤷
I have not. If you are building this elaborate of a setup, you might want to look into Riverside which is a remote podcast recording tool I use: crsp.li/Riverside
Hi there, as far as I can tell, that's something you can change on the operating system / audio recording program side? I don't think there is a specific setting on the Zoom F6 device itself. But I checked and was able to change the input Sample Rate in Audition and also in the SoundSource overview which I use to check and change my input / output routing on macOS.
Hi! Nice video! I am thinking about buying the zoom f6. Do you think it can be used on the audio interface mode for live streaming? Is the 2.0 usb gonna be able to deal with that? Which cable would I need? A usb-c to usb-a, right? Thanks a lot!
Can you please help? Why is the F6 not powering a Cloudlifter even on +48v… also why won’t it power a C100 Sony mic. However… it WILL power a sure SM7B without the Cloudlifter - please help and I’ll gladly drop a Thanks!
I will probably not get into this any time soon. But generally: you can setup the Zoom like described here and then find another tutorial which shows you how to use a Multi-Track-Interface with Reaper.
how do you change the gain of an input when you record on your laptop? the signal that I get is too hot and the knobs are not changing anything. thanks
No, with the current firmware version it is not possible to record 32bit float while using the F6 as a audio interface :( I'd love that but it's not possible.
@@ChrisSpiegl you actually can record to the F6 in 32-bit while using it as an interface in 24-bit. Setting it up for this is unintuitive, but I've done it. You need to set the recording mode to Dual (24bit+32bit), then you can enable AIF with Rec while in 32bit mode. Check out Gerald Undone's video "Zoom F6 - Can It Do Everything?" at the 5:57 mark.
@@AstroPancakes WOW that is incredible. I never thought about using the Dual 24+32 bit mode and AIF 🤯. I will 100% make sure to test this and see how it works for me. Thank you for sharing this insight.
@@ChrisSpiegl A coworker asked me today how to do it, but for the life of me, I couldn't remember how, even though I knew I had done it sometime in 2019. It's so unintuitive, I couldn't work out how to do it again! I had to search UA-cam to find out. Your video was the top result, so I figured I'd leave my findings here in case anyone is searching for the same answer. Hope you don't mind!
@@AstroPancakes I absolutely do not mind. i am actually glad you mentioned it and I will most likely feature this in a video coming up as I think it is super important to get out there that this is a possibility. I just never thought to use the Dual mode for it. I really appreciate that you left your comment 🌸.
Hi, Very helpful video; thanks! Are you able to save multiple simultaneous audio tracks as separate files to your SD card? Or you are only able to save multiple tracks when you interface it with your PC? Thanks for any information!
Meaning you'd like to have a stereo signal which is recorded by the F6. There are two ways I can think of. The easiest would be to get two crsp.li/RodeVXLR adapters (Mini Jack to XLR) and then a cable which splits your stereo Mini Jack to two Mono Mini Jacks. Then you can record two channels of your backup track. Alternatively and with less cables, you could connect the F6 to a computer in multi track mode and send the music out to the F6 over USB. Then on the device you can select two channels which should record the USB audio. Downside is that you can not use 32bit float mode in this case. Good luck and if you have more questions, you can also join us on Discord ( crsp.li/Discord ) 🌸.
I’m noticing in my headphones from the f6 that there is a lot of background noise introduced when I turn on the usb multitrack interface. It doesn’t seem to be there in the standard recording mode, and this happens whether I’m connected to my laptop or not. Any ideas why that would be happening?
Very helpful, thanks! So being in Multi Track recording mode I can only adjust the input gain of the mics but going into Input / PFL / Input 1 / and add +db to the TRIM, right? Love to use the know to fade in the gain and not the fader. So this cant be changed?
I also think that Zoom missed to add the ability to choose what the knob does (Trim/Gain) but it is what it is 🙈. At this time you have to go into the PFSL settings to set the Trim.
Thanks for the video Chris. I was wondering how to record separate files from each of the 6 inputs while only using the device without a computer. Is that possible?
The Zoom F6 - by default - records all active inputs (up to 6) onto the SD card. Additionally, you can activate the L/R mixdown recording as well. So yes, this is what it is designed for.
So if I understand, the Zoom f6 connot record multitrack if not working as an interface? No possibility to record 6 separate tracks on the field? Thanks 🙏
Have you ever taken a 1/4” feed(s) from a sound board? Since it only has XLR inputs instead of combo inputs like other devices, I’m curious if line level can be sent and received through a male 1/4” to male XLR from the sound board to the F6 input(s) or is a DI box is required?
The biggest issue i am having currently is that i cannot silence tracks temporarily without turning the gain all the way down losing where it was previously set. I was able to do this on the F4 and it makes checking on the positioning of radio mics on set too tedious. Hoping to find a solution otherwise i will be sending it back!
Ture, that is a limitation. One idea would be that on the home screen you can use the check mark button (below the menu button) to cycle through the different channels and by doing so listen to juts one at a time.
Hi Chris, do you mind if I ask you another F6-related question? I'm using a Shure SM7B, but I found out that I needed an additional preamp to boost the signal. I was under the impression that the F6 had enough power for the 7B, but even with the gain at 100%, it was very quiet. I bought a Fethead from Triton Audio, but when I plug it in, it completely cuts off the signal. Phantom power is on, at least I'm pretty sure it is. I don't see an option to turn it off, just toggle between voltage options. Do you think this is an issue with the Fethead? Or does the F6 not play well with others in this capacity?
Hi Joshua, I personally have not had a chance to play with the SM7B but I would assume that the F6 could handle it out of the box (specifically with 32bit float). But I would also say that a Fethead is probably a good investment non the less. In regards to Phantom Power: the setting to change the voltage is a global one in the settings if I remember correctly. What you are looking for is the PFL (input specific) settings. There you have to go to the "input type" setting which by default is probably set to "Mic" for your specific input that you select. But you can change it to I think it's called "Mic + Phantom Power" or something similar. So basically: you have to turn on Phantom power individually for the specific input you have the mic plugged into.
I am using the F6 in AIF mode to stream with guests. Unfortunately the USB sends all tracks back out including the computer track and the guest audio echoes. Is there a way to do a mix minus on the USB or can that only be done with line out and routing?
To do a mix minus with the USB you will have to do some routing on your computer. I have achieved this with the app Loopback by Rogue Amoeba (crsp.li/Loopback). There you can setup the Multi-Track Input of the Zoom F6 and only pull together the tracks you want to send to any given app and create a virtual device which only has the audio you want to send to your guests. I have a video about Loopback planed on my channel, but it's not filmed yet and will probably take another 3-4 weeks till I can publish it since I am currently traveling.
@@ChrisSpiegl Thank you. I did watch one of your videos in which Loopback is used along with Skype and I duplicated the input and output configurations on Loopback. I believe it is working but I still look forward to your Loopback video.
@@MicrobeTV That's awesome you found that video. Loopback is an incredible application for this type of stuff. Super useful and really powerful for audio routing on macOS.
Why audition can not read all 6 channels of zoom h6 it just read 2channels only. I do evry thing i updated the soft of zoom itself and install the driver and adjust all sitting but no way. It runs only when stereo mox mod but multi track 2channels working only. I use windows 10
That's interesting, what happens when you switch away from the Poly WAV and instead you record them into separate files? That should work? At least that is how I am using my F6 and I actually prefer this method as it is more flexible.
For some one who stuck in the same issue, you have to install ASIO drivers for windows from zoom drivers website, only after that you may use it without any problems on windows.
Everytime I search how to record my computer audio directly to the Zoom F6, Google sends me to your video. But I don't think the answer I'm looking for his in here...or perhaps I'm not smart enough to understand. How do I set up my Zoom F6 to capture audio coming from my computer? For instance, I want to record just the audio from a Zoom call either onto the Zoom F6 or run it through the F6 into a DAW.
Hi Joshua, I think I can help you here: 1) if you just want to run your computer audio into a DAW, then you do not need the F6. You can just use a programm called Loopback by Rogue Amoeba ( crsp.li/Loopback - it's a bit expensive but worth the money in reduced hassle) or Blackhole ( crsp.li/BlackHoleAudioDriver ). 2) but if you still want to send audio to your Zoom F6, then I think that is actually covered at the end of this video at 21:57 . There I talk about how you can send audio to your F6 via USB and also record and map it to an input. If you have additional questions, please feel free to let me know.
@@ChrisSpiegl - Thank you for the clarification. The second option is what I was asking for, now that I think of it. I'm new to all of this, so I don't want to spend too much more than I already have. Essentially, what I would like is to capture Zoom audio into its own track on the F6 and then upload the multitrack file to Audacity/GarageBand for further editing. (This is for a Podcast, by the way...) I've been reading about online programs like SquadCast and Zencastr, which I'm sure are great, but at a certain point you have to pay for those, and I don't want to. Plus, this way, I keep everything internal. My only question, though, is if there is only one USB port, how and why did you link two USB channels together? There's only one audio source coming from the computer, isn't there? I'll let you know if I have any more questions. 😁
@@joshuaglassman7558 About the 2 USB channels: That of course only really makes sense if you want to record either more than one signal or a stereo signal.
