Description

Serious videographers use timecode to keep their audio and video perfectly in sync. The M4’s built-in timecode generator has professional grade .2 ppm accuracy. THE INS AND OUTS In a nutshell, 32-bit floating-point recording format is capable of capturing such a wide dynamic range, clipping is virtually impossible. This means that you do not have to set gain levels. On set, you can’t risk working with audio that is overdriven or too quiet. The M4 records with 32-bit float, which allows you to record audio perfectly in any situation, even without clipping.

Beginners especially struggle with setting gain levels, often making recordings that are so quiet they are not usable, or so loud that the audio distorts.. For my particular project, I needed to record the sound of coins moving and sliding like they would in Smaug’s dragon hoard. I decided to treat the M4 with no mercy — just ‘point and shoot’, without any precautions to ensure the recording quality. I set up in the middle of my lounge room with the coins piled on a towel, and I didn’t even bother to switch off the heater fan, so I knew there was a risk of sound contamination. Control your M4 from up to 5 meters away with the Zoom RC4 (sold separately). 32-BIT FLOAT AUDIO INTERFACEZoom does not provide any specifications of the self-noise (typically a bad sign), and what specifications they do provide are disappointing. If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered

The PRERECORD function captures and saves six seconds of audio before you hit RECORD - perfect for unexpected starts. For field recording purposes, low sensitivity microphones are not ideal for recording quieter sounds and will accentuate the hissing self-noise of the device.

Zoom M4 MicTrak 4-channel 32-bit Portable Recorder Features:

bit recording is an incredible format. In theory, it provides a far, far greater dynamic range than you’ll ever need, so peaking and digital ‘overs’ are a thing of the past — in fact, Zoom’s 32-bit products don’t even come with gain controls. Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty When you’re on-set you can’t afford to come away with clipped or faint audio. The M4 records in 32-bit float, allowing you to capture perfect audio in any situation without the need to set gain.

You can also save time in post-production by using the onboard NORMALIZE function to automatically raise or lower the volume of your recording to the optimal level without compressing the audio. Price & Availability Elastically suspended microphones and attenuating housing coating to reduce handling noise during recordingFilmmakers can use the two XLR inputs for dialogue, while using the X/Y mics to record ambience. In post, your recordings can easily be synced to video, thanks to the M4’s onboard timecode generator. Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided. For 16 and 24-bit recordings, setting the optimal gain level that maximizes signal strength while staying below 0dBFS is a skill that can only be learned through practice (and even then is not foolproof). This means that in the studio or in a live environment, this compact unit can offer a range of setups to suit various situations. It can also be used as an audio interface when linked to your computer via the USB connection, so you can run directly to your DAW. That makes it a great option for podcasters who work from home, but also need to take their show out and about from time to time.
