Zoom PodTrak P8 Portable Multitrack Podcast Recorder

The Zoom PodTrak P8 Portable Multitrack Podcast Recorder is user-friendly and designed to handle even the most ambitious podcasts. With all the essential functions for recording, editing, and mixing, the PodTrak P8 serves as your complete podcast studio in a portable form.

This portable multitrack podcast recorder lets you quickly record up to six mics, handle 2 echo-free remote call-ins simultaneously, trigger sound samples, and provide separate headphone feeds for all your guests, all at the same time and with refreshing simplicity, thanks to the large full-colour LCD touchscreen.

From the intuitive, tactile controls to the powerful audio processing and editing functions, the PodTrak P8 is well equipped to help you record, stream, and export pristine audio for complex panel podcasts. Dynamic and condenser mics, customisable sound pads, call-ins via your smartphone or computer, and independent headphone outs; the PodTrak P8 can manage everything you need a podcast production station to do.

Extra touches including per-channel tone controls, compression/de-essing, limiters, low-cut filters, and noise reduction-all stellar tools for achieving professional-sounding tracks, an integrated mix-minus function to prevent echo and feedback for remote guests, and multiple powering methods make the PodTrak P8 a truly powerful all-in-one solution for podcasting.
