Zoom MRS-4 4-Track Digital Multitrack Recorder
With it's simple 4 track cassette-like interface, the MRS-4 is truly digital recording made easy. Just turn the power on and start recording. Saving recorded audio to smart media cards, the MRS-4 can bounce tracks without degradation, giving you a virtually unlimited number of tracks. Up to two tracks can be recorded simultaneously and with 8 virtual takes per track, a total of 32 tracks can be recorded. The long 45mm faders are perfect for critical mixing and the two-band parametric EQ and pan controls give each channel a wide range sound shaping.
The large back-lit LCD displays two input levels, tracks 1-4 and Master L/R output levels. Location can be displayed either as Measure/Beat or Min/Sec/mSec. Full digital editing tools such as Copy and Paste, Erase, Exchange and Bounce are all at your fingertips. Dynamic effects such as compression or Limiting, Cabinet Simulation for guitar, as well as mic preamp can be easily added to the tracks. Send effects such as Hall, Room, Doubling, Delay (Short and Long), Chorus (Mono and Stereo) are adjustable using the Track Parameter function. The Power, Boost and Vocal Mix Down effects can be used simultaneously with the send effects for a perfectly finished mix.
The MRS-4 also features Manual and Auto Punch In/Out, 50 marker points for transport position and A-B Repeat, from any point or any block. For managing your Smart Media, the free "MRS-4 Card Manager" downloadable software can convert audio files for each track to/from WAV files and can be used with your desktop DAW software. The MRS-4 links with the Zoom MRT-3 RhythmTrak. The MRS-4 receives signal directly from the outputs of the MRT-3 and it synchronizes via MIDI clock. The MRS-4's built in metronome and chromatic tuner aid in making accurate recordings. The unit runs on 4 "AA" batteries or an optional AC Power Supply.
