Musicians who refuse to be tied down to a studio will find their perfect companion in the R12 MultiTrak recorder. This portable powerhouse combines professional-grade recording capabilities with the freedom to create anywhere, featuring super-clean preamps and 8 tracks of audio recording that handles everything from quick demos to release-ready productions. The dual XLR/TRS inputs come equipped with phantom power and a Hi-Z switch on input 1 for direct guitar connection, whilst built-in compressors on both inputs ensure your recordings maintain professional polish. Creative flexibility comes standard with the R12's comprehensive effects suite, including reverb, chorus, and delay through a dedicated send channel with its own return fader. Advanced users can tap into Zoom's Guitar Lab presets for expanded tonal possibilities, and each track benefits from individual pan control and 3-band EQ. The unit's 150 preloaded drum loops span multiple genres, providing instant rhythm sections, whilst the Sequence Play function turns your projects into backing tracks for live performance or rehearsal sessions. Power and connectivity options make the R12 truly versatile - up to 5 hours of battery life from four AA batteries means you can record anywhere, and the included AD-17 adapter or USB battery provide alternative power solutions. The 2.4" full-colour LCD touchscreen simplifies navigation and editing, and USB-C connectivity transforms the unit into a stereo audio interface with control surface functionality for your favourite DAW. Additional features include 18 built-in FM synth instruments playable via USB-C MIDI keyboard, customisable click track, and the ability to import samples via microSD card or USB drive.
