Four-Track Recording with Bounce

The Zoom R4 MultiTrak is a portable voice recorder that captures four simultaneous tracks plus a dedicated bounce track for layering additional parts. It records at 48 kHz using 32-Bit Float technology so gain staging is unnecessary. Two XLR/TS combo inputs accept microphones, instruments or line-level sources, and a built-in stereo microphone is also available. The unit runs on battery power for mobile sessions.

Check Inputs and Power Before Buying

Verify that your microphones or instruments use XLR or TS connectors compatible with the two combo jacks. Confirm you have a supply of AA batteries or a suitable USB power bank for extended portable use. The recorder includes a colour screen with metering and four physical faders for hands-on mixing. No computer connection is required for standalone recording.

Thermals Noise and Power in Use

The recorder operates silently with no moving parts, making it suitable for quiet environments. Battery operation eliminates mains hum and ground-loop noise during field recording. Power draw is low enough for long sessions on standard AA cells. The aluminium chassis dissipates the minimal heat generated by the preamps and processing.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the R4 and what must be purchased separately?

The recorder includes two XLR/TS combo inputs and a built-in microphone for immediate recording. Microphones, instruments, headphones and batteries are not included and must be bought separately.

Should I choose the 32-bit float or a lower bit-depth version for the R4?

The R4 records exclusively in 32-bit float at 48 kHz, so there is no lower bit-depth option to select; this format captures a massive dynamic range without setting gain.

What does 32-bit float at 48 kHz mean for my everyday recordings?

It records with enough headroom that clipped peaks are virtually impossible, letting you hit record without adjusting input levels and fix quiet or loud passages later in software.
