The Zoom PodTrak P4 gives you an easy-to-use yet professional tool for all your streaming and podcasting applications, with a range of features and sound quality that is second to none.
The PodTrak has 4 microphone inputs on the front panel, each with a gain control and mute switch. The preamps deliver up to 70dB of gain, which is exceptional for devices of this format: Their performance is therefore sufficient even for problematic candidates such as the popular Shure SM7B and guarantees a quick start without technical hassle. With the switchable phantom power, you are also well equipped for condenser microphones like the Rode NT1-A, which is also very popular.
Rarely are you alone during a stream. That's why Zoom has built separately adjustable headphone outputs into the Zoom PodTrak P4.
You can connect your mobile phone directly to the PodTrak using the TRRS cable to mix in phone calls. Alternatively, you can do this via the USB port and conference software of your choice. A mix-minus function reliably eliminates feedback and echoes in the telephone line, which are natural enemies of any broadcaster.
If you want to use audio clips, you can load them onto PodTrak in advance and assign them to the 4 trigger pads or create 11 preset sounds. Even entire conversations or songs can be played at the touch of a button.
While PodTrak is best enjoyed in direct combination with a computer, it can be used on the move and with an SD card just like a classic handheld recorder. Again, all tracks are recorded separately as high-quality .wav files. For the more modern user, PodTrak can also be used with an iOS or Android device and streamed on the go. So you can also delight your audience in the rehearsal room, in the city or at grandma's with high-quality sound recordings.
Zoom offers an optional Bluetooth transmitter/receiver for the Zoom PodTrak P4. Wireless connection of any mobile device becomes a breeze!
