Introduction

Thank you very much for purchasing a ZOOM P8 PodTrak.

The P8 is a multitrack recorder designed for podcasting. After connecting mics and headphones, high-quality audio recording can be started right away. The audio enhancement and episode editing in a single device, so we can recommend it to all podcasters from beginners to veterans. We hope you will enjoy recording and producing polished episodes in a variety of locations.

combines all the functions necessary to produce podcasts, including

P8

Main features of the

P8

Multitrack recording of up to six people at once

The sound qualities and levels of the 6 mic inputs can be adjusted for the voices of the participants. The 6 headphone outputs allow everyone participating to monitor the sound that is being recorded. In addition to a stereo le ready to be used for podcasting, separate les for the audio of each channel can also be recorded and utilized for editing after recording.

Mic sounds can be adjusted optimally

In addition to dynamic mics, the high-quality built-in mic preamps support condenser mics that require phantom power (+48 V). With a single switch, the level of an input can be set optimally according to the mic type. Moreover, in addition to a limiter and low-cut lter, tone adjustment, a compressor that evens out the volume, a de-esser that suppresses sibilance and noise reduction can be applied to the mic sound. All the signal processing is tailored for voices, and each feature is simply turned on/off or adjusted with a single parameter, enabling settings to be made easily even without previous expertise in sound mixing.

Every necessary editing function is built in

The P8 has every necessary editing function to complete episodes for distribution. These include deleting unnecessary parts of recorded data, optimizing levels automatically, and combining opening and ending les. Intuitive operation using the large 4.3-inch color touchscreen allows anyone to easily complete podcasts without using a computer.

Instant playback of jingles and recorded interviews

The SOUND PAD function includes nine pads with four banks that can be switched even during recording. These pads can be used to play built-in sounds and other audio les in real time. When creating multiple programs, different banks can be prepared for each program. In addition, since the colors that the SOUND PAD buttons light can be set, le assignments can be made easy to see. For example, they could be set blue for les with recorded interviews. Use these to enhance podcasting and live streaming.

Remote recording

If all the podcasters cannot gather in one place or you want to invite guests who are far away, you can use smartphones and computers to enable remote participation in recording. A Mix Minus function prevents echoes from occurring in the audio of remote participants. By connecting a BTA-2 specialized wireless adapter to the smartphone can also be connected to it wirelessly.

P8

, a

Live streaming

The 2-in/2-out USB audio interface functions of the P8 can be used for live streaming and recording with computers, smartphones and tablets. Since it supports class compliant mode, installation of a dedicated driver is not necessary.

Optional accessory pack

We have prepared an optional Podcast Mic Pack with a dynamic mic (ZDM-1), headphones (ZHP-1) and related accessories, along with software useful for editing on a computer after recording.

SOUND PAD buttons

Audio les can be assigned to these. Press one to play the assigned le. This is convenient for playing interviews that have been recorded in advance, opening and ending music and jingles. The 9 SOUND PAD buttons can have audio les assigned in 4 banks, for a total of 36 les.

USB Mix Minus

When using the P8 as an audio interface, signals input by USB can be set to not be output back to

USB. This can prevent feedback to the person at the other end when recording while calling through a computer, smartphone or tablet.

ON AIR button

When ON AIR buttons are turned off, input sounds are not output to the USB port (streaming audio) or SPEAKER OUT jacks, nor are they recorded to the podcast stereo le. This function is convenient, for example, when participants are discussing the next topic among themselves while music is playing.

Podcasting

This is one way to share audio les publicly on the Internet. Podcasters make content and distribute it via the Internet so people can listen easily on smartphones, computers and other devices.

Dynamic mic

This type of mic does not require phantom power and is strong and durable.

Condenser mic

This type of mic usually has high sensitivity and can capture audio with high quality. Phantom power supply is necessary for use.
