Overview
Combining a workflow similar to classic portable 4 track recorders with 21st century digital features, the R4 offers musicians a compact and travel-ready miniature studio complete with two XLR/TRS combo inputs, a built-in microphone, volume faders, 2″ color LCD, stereo 3.5mm output for monitoring, effects, and even built-in rhythms to help you get ideas down. Audio is recorded to microSD, and cards of up to 1TB are supported. A 1/4″-20 thread allows you to easily mount it to a tripod or other accessory, while nonskid rubber feet help keep it from moving on flat surfaces.
Features
- Zoom designed the R4 MultiTrak to empower musicians to explore big ideas. With a unique dedicated bounce track and 32-bit float recording, the R4 is perfect for capturing you compositions.|
- With the R4, you can record up to four tracks, mix, and then bounce them to the dedicated bounce track. This lets you free up additional tracks to keep adding layers.
- Don’t worry about your audio signal clipping. The R4 captures perfect audio with every take, without the need to set gain.|
- Track effects: Each track features a 3-band EQ, pan, echo, and reverb to refine your mix.
- Input effects: Apply effects to input A such as amp simulations, delays, distortions and more.
- The R4 features a high-quality built-in microphone, perfect for acoustic guitars, vocals, or capturing a quick reference recording.
- The R4 has a rhythm section preloaded with over 80 different drum patterns to play along with featuring genres such as rock, hip hop, funk, heavy metal, and more.
- Tracks that you record are automatically saved individually, even after they have been bounced. These tracks or any other audio files can be loaded into a project on the R4.
- The R4 is also a powerful 2-in / 2-out USB audio interface with 32-bit float technology. Connect it to either your computer or smartphone.
