Description
The Zoom M3 MicTrak Stereo Shotgun Microphone and Recorder gives filmmakers the ability to elevate their content with pristine audio. This on-camera stereo microphone / recorder captures every sonic nuance with 32-bit float recording.
32-BIT Float Recording
The M3 captures clip-free audio, every time. With 32-bit float recording, there’s no need to set gain. Whether it’s dialogue, sound effects or outdoor ambience, you’ll always get the perfect take.
Run-and-Gun Ready
Quickly shift from scene to scene with the M3 attached to the camera of your choice. Its specially designed shock mount keeps your setup lightweight and ensures minimal handling noise.
Stereo and Mono Modes
Easily switch between mono and stereo modes. Mono mode is optimal for capturing dialogue. 90º gives an accurate, transparent stereo capture. 120º provides a generous stereo capture ideal for ambience or sound effects.
More Flexibility in Post
The M3 always saves a backup Mid-Side RAW file, giving you the flexibility to adjust the stereo width of your recording in post.
Backup your Recording
Use the M3’s 3.5mm stereo output to connect to your camera and record a backup. This is especially helpful when syncing your audio to video.
Streamlining Post Production
With the M3 Edit and Play software, you can adjust the stereo width of your recording and normalise your files to prepare them for syncing and editing.
