Portable 4-Track 32-Bit Float Recorder

The Zoom H4essential captures four tracks of 32-bit float audio, removing the need to set gain levels. Its onboard X/Y microphones handle sound pressure up to 130 dB. Two XLR-1/4" TRS combo inputs provide 48 V phantom power for condenser microphones. A 2-inch colour display shows real-time waveforms and mixer controls.

Musicians, podcasters

Suits creators who want distortion-free recording without manual level riding. The bundle adds a custom windbuster, 32 GB card and AC adapter for immediate use. Not for buyers who require more than four simultaneous tracks or built-in multi-channel Bluetooth streaming without the optional BTA-1 adapter.

32-bit float recording with 130 dB SPL handling

The defining specification is the 32-bit float engine paired with X/Y mics rated to 130 dB SPL, which together guarantee usable audio even when source levels jump unexpectedly. This combination decides whether the recorder matches your dynamic-range needs.

Questions about this item

What accessories are included in this bundle and what else is needed to start recording?

The bundle includes the H4essential recorder, Auray WRW-H4N Windbuster, 32 GB SDHC card and Zoom AD17 AC adapter. Only headphones or monitors are required separately.

How do I choose between the recorder's built-in X/Y mics and the two combo inputs for my session?

Use the onboard X/Y mics for ambient or solo capture up to 130 dB SPL; plug microphones or instruments into the two XLR-1/4" TRS combo inputs when you need external sources with 48 V phantom power.

What does 32-bit float recording actually do for me during a live take?

It captures the full dynamic range without setting gain, so clipped peaks and noisy floors are avoided even if levels jump unexpectedly.
