Product Information

The onboard stereo pair gives a very nice signal, but you want to be right on top of it. Shove it right up in their faces. Even a couple feet away and things drop off significantly. This is actually a big plus for an interview mic. Just don't be shy with it.

Control your M4 from up to 5 meters away with the Zoom RC4 (sold separately). 32-BIT FLOAT AUDIO INTERFACE When you’re on-set you can’t afford to come away with clipped or faint audio. The M4 records in 32-bit float, allowing you to capture perfect audio in any situation without the need to set gain.

The unit is of a tough polymer construction and looks to be robust enough and keeps the M4 lightweight, which is important for a handheld unit of this type. Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided. In a nutshell, 32-bit floating-point recording format is capable of capturing such a wide dynamic range, clipping is virtually impossible. This means that you do not have to set gain levels.

Other useful features include the ability to prerecord for up to 6 seconds and you can also remote control the M4 using the optional RC4.Serious videographers use timecode to keep their audio and video perfectly in sync. The M4’s built-in timecode generator has professional grade .2 ppm accuracy. THE INS AND OUTS For my particular project, I needed to record the sound of coins moving and sliding like they would in Smaug’s dragon hoard. I decided to treat the M4 with no mercy — just ‘point and shoot’, without any precautions to ensure the recording quality. I set up in the middle of my lounge room with the coins piled on a towel, and I didn’t even bother to switch off the heater fan, so I knew there was a risk of sound contamination.

Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty bit recording is an incredible format. In theory, it provides a far, far greater dynamic range than you’ll ever need, so peaking and digital ‘overs’ are a thing of the past — in fact, Zoom’s 32-bit products don’t even come with gain controls.If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered
