13 October 2022
The R12 MultiTrak is Zoom’s portable project studio for recording and editing music tracks. Built on the features introduced by the R20, the R12 provides the same smartphone-friendly experience offered through the onboard touchscreen — which is fully integrated with a multi-channel mixer board and transport controls. In addition to this, the R12 has the ability to play out sequences (‘playlist’) for live performances requiring backing tracks.
Main Features
- 2 input (Combo Jacks with phantom power) / 8 track recorder
- 2.4-inch colour LCD touchscreen for full operation
- 8 channel mixer/fader board, with Effects Send and Master
- Click routing (Phones / Output) on panel for use during live performances
- 2 in / 4 out, USB audio interface, and MIDI host for connection to a MIDI keyboard
- Loop-based drum patterns (x150) for building rhythm tracks
- Onboard 8-voice FM music synthesizer
- Built-in multi-effects processor, compatible with Guitar Lab software
The R12 also provides up to 5 hours on four AA batteries allowing users to bring production anywhere. Additionally, the R12 can be powered with the included AD-17 power adapter, or a USB battery.
The market for musicians wanting to record music at home remains strong. By taking advantage of its portability and ease of operation, the new and improved features of the Zoom R12 MultiTrak provide a useful tool to hobbyists and professionals alike.
