Connecting mics/other devices to Inputs 1–8

The F8n Pro 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 F8n Pro MIC IN connector.
