The Little Recorder for Big Ideas

Designed By Musicians

All of Zoom's engineers are musicians and they designed the R4 to empower musicians to explore big ideas. With a unique dedicated ‘bounce track’ and 32-bit float recording, the R4 is perfect for capturing your most ambitious compositions.

Record. Bounce. Repeat.

With the R4, you can record up to four tracks, mix and then bounce them to the dedicated ‘bounce track.’ This lets you free up additional tracks to keep adding layers. 

You can choose to do a ‘quick’ bounce or mix and bounce in real time.

The R4 also allows you to ‘undo’ your last bounce, if you’re not satisfied with the results.

21-Bit Float Recording

The R4 captures perfect audio with every take, without the need to set gain.

Combo Inputs

The R4 has 2 XLR/TS combo inputs with legendary Zoom preamps. You can plug in microphones, instruments, keyboards, and more.

Track Effects

Each track features a 3-band EQ, pan, echo, and reverb to refine your mix.

Input Effects

Apply effects to input A such as amp simulations, delays, distortions and more.

Built-In Microphone

The R4 features a high-quality built-in microphone, perfect for acoustic guitars, vocals, or capturing a quick reference recording.

Much More Than A Metronome

The R4 has a rhythm section preloaded with over 80 different drum patterns to play along with featuring genres such as rock, hip hop, funk, heavy metal, and more.

Every Take Is Saved

Tracks that you record are automatically saved individually, even after they have been bounced.

32-Bit Float Audio Interface

The R4 is also a powerful 2-in/ 2-out USB audio interface with 32-bit float technology. Connect it to either your computer or smartphone.

Control and Create

With a fader for each track and dedicated hardware buttons for the most used functions, you won’t need to menu dive to record your music.

Powered For Your Ideas

The R4 can be powered by 4 AA Batteries, or through its USB-C port.
