• A maximum of 99 marks can be added to a take.
• If the maximum file size is exceeded during recording

(→

Maximum file size (File Max Size)

), recording will

continue in a new take with a number that is one higher. No gap in sound will occur between the two
takes when this happens.

• When recording on 2 SD cards simultaneously, if recording should stop on one because it runs out of

space, recording will continue on the other SD card without interruption.

HINT:

• If the timecode function is enabled, recording will start from frame 00 (00 or 02 when using drop frame)

and files will always end exactly on a second. This makes synchronization easy when editing later.

playing it with the F8n Pro.
