Taylor here, I would love to know your settings on the Zoom F6 while using the SM7b, specifically when recording in 32-bit float. I have this exact set up and when I record in 24-bit it sounds great but when I switch to 32-bit float I can hardly hear myself and the recording sounds extremely quiet almost as if the mic is nearly picking up my voice. So what settings do you have on the F6 when recording 32-bit float?
In the video I just used it in 24 bit level set to -12 as I was in a controlled environment and its quicker to work with straight in Final Cut, which is or was only 24bit. If you record in 32 bit you don’t need to worry about the levels as this can be done later in a program like isotope rx and I think davinci resolve or adobe premiere and others it can also be done in fcpx but it takes a few more steps as you can only boost by 12db initially or using a addon like isotope which I do. You can set the output in your zoom f6 to correct levels L&R, record in 32bit float and have that as a backup in case you clip or need to boost more later
