The Zoom R4 Multi-Track 4-Track Mixer/Recorder features 32-bit float recording which captures perfect audio with every take, without the need to set the gain. It records up to 4 tracks which you can mix and then bounce to the dedicated ‘bounce track.’ This lets you free up additional tracks to keep adding layers. With a fader for each track and dedicated hardware buttons for the most used functions, you won’t need to menu dive to record your music.
Each track features a 3-band EQ, pan, echo, and reverb to refine your mix. You can also apply effects to input-A such as amp simulations, delays, distortions and more. It also 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.
The R4 has a high-quality built-in microphone, perfect for acoustic guitars, vocals, or capturing a quick reference recording. It has 2 XLR/TS combo inputs with legendary Zoom preamps. You can plug in microphones, instruments, keyboards, and more.
It is also a powerful 2-in/ 2-out USB audio interface so you can connect it to either your computer or smartphone.
