Post-production

Recording with 32-bit ﬂoat WAV ﬁle formats allows the same audio quality to be retained when editing.

Dual AD converter circuit overview

For each input circuit, the F3 has two AD converters with diﬀerent input gains. This design enables high-
quality audio recording without the need to adjust gain settings, a step that is normally indispensable.

Providing amazing dynamic range

By combining two AD converters, a wide dynamic range not possible with a single AD converter has been
realized.
