MUSICAL FREEDOM. BATTERY POWERED.

• LIVE TO MAKE MUSIC: The R12 is made for musicians who live to make music. And they want the freedom to make music wherever they go.
• ALL YOU NEED ON-BOARD: Compact and mobile, you can record and mix songs without a computer. Use the R12’s full-color LCD touchscreen to cut, copy, loop, and edit your tracks.
• AMAZING SOUND: The R12 has super-clean preamps and you’ll love the way they sound. With two XLR/TRS inputs, and 8 tracks of audio, the R12 is perfect for recording everything from demos to release-ready songs.
• FULLY LOADED: The R12 includes a send effects channel offering reverb, chorus and delay with a dedicated effects return fader. For advanced tones, you can use presets and effects from Zoom's Guitar Lab. The R12 also has pan and a 3-channel EQ for each track and a compressor on inputs 1 and 2.
• TAKE IT EVERYWHERE: The R12 provides up to 5 hours on four AA batteries allowing you to bring your production anywhere. Additionally, you can use the R12 with the included AD-17 power adapter, or a USB battery.
• PLAYBACK. PLAY ALONG: Use Sequence Play to create a playlist of your projects. Then use them as backing tracks, whether you’re playing live or rehearsing a set.
• IT STARTS WITH A GROOVE: With 150 preloaded drum loops in a variety of patterns and genres, the R12 provides a versatile rhythm section for any project.
• IMPORT AUDIO FILES: Add additional audio samples by importing files into your R12 via Micro SD card or USB thumb drive.
• FROM HEADPHONES TO MONITORS: The R12 includes an ⅛” stereo headphone jack as well as dedicated ¼” monitor outputs.
• INTERFACE + CONTROL SURFACE: Use the R12 as a stereo audio interface with your favorite DAW or streaming platform, via USB-C. As a control surface, the transport controls and faders make it easy to adjust and control your software during production.
• CONNECTIONS: Connect microphones, instruments or line level devices like keyboards, mixers and more.
• Hi-Z: Input 1 on the R12 has a Hi-Z switch, allowing you to plug your guitar directly into the recorder.
• PHANTOM POWER: Both inputs on the R12 offer 48V Phantom Power for condenser microphones.
• STAY IN TIME. EVERY TIME: Activate the fully customizable click track with the press of a button. Click balance blends the metronome with your playback audio and routes it to your headphones and/or the main outputs.
• ADD SOME SYNTH: The R12 has 18 FM synth instruments built in. They can be played by plugging in a MIDI keyboard via USB-C or programmed using the touchscreen.
