Zoom F8n Pro

As its name suggests, it is the successor to the Zoom F8n.
The most notable "innovation" is the "32-bit float" feature. Now, you can record with 32-bit float and not worry about your gains anymore. (within reasonable limits).

Aside from that, there is nothing really fancy or new in comparison to the Zoom F8n.

We're not 100% sure yet, but we have the impression that the Zoom F8n Pro uses slightly more power from the batteries, so they don't last as long as those in the Zoom F8n. However, the difference isn't significant.

Settings

Take a closer look at your SD cards and you will find a folder labeled "F8n Pro_SETTINGS." 
Yeah, big surprise. The folder used to be called "F8n_SETTINGS."
We double-checked, and you can use the settings for the F8n and the F8n Pro interchangeably.
For convenience, we keep both folders and copy every setting into both folders. The amount of bytes used is negligible, just a few kilobytes.

Every time you format your SD cards, make sure you copy the settings into both folders so that you always have them on hand.
