I am a retired videographer/soundman. I purchased the Zoom F6 & Tentacle Sync in October 2021 to be up-to-date on sound recording techniques. You should be familiar with the F6 and its production and post-production workflow if you want to use the timecode and 32-bit feature.

If you are in filmmaking havens such as the San Francisco Bay Area or Sacramento you must drive to Stockton. There is ample parking at my home if you need to take time to assess the equipment.
