Make music on the go with a compact, mobile interface allowing you to record, edit and mix songs.
The Zoom R12 MultiTrack Recorder is made for musicians who want the freedom to make music wherever they go. Compact and mobile, you can record, edit and mix songs without a computer. Use the R12’s full-color LCD touchscreen to easily cut, copy, loop and edit your tracks. R12 has super-clean preamps, and you’ll love the way they sound. With two XLR/TRS inputs, and 8 tracks of audio, the R12 is ideal for recording everything from demos to release-ready songs. It includes a send effects channel offering reverb, chorus and delay with a dedicated effects return fader. For advanced tones, you can use presets and effects from Zooms’ Guitar Lab. The R12 also has pan and a 3-channel EQ for each track and a compressor on inputs 1 and 2. Use Sequence Play to create a playlist of your projects. Then use them as backing tracks, whether you’re playing live or rehearsing a set. With 150 preloaded drum loops in a variety of patterns and genres, the R12 provides a versatile rhythm section for any project. Add additional audio samples by importing files into your R12 via Micro SD card or USB thumb drive. The R12 provides up to 5 hours on four AA batteries allowing you to bring your production anywhere. Additionally, you can power the R12 with the optional AD-17 adapter, or a USB battery. The R12 includes an 1/8" stereo headphone jack as well as dedicated 1/4" monitor outputs. Musicians can also plug in their iOS devices to use the optional R12 Control App.
