This thing is amazing, just what I needed for my podcast. Not only is it awesome that u can connect 4 mics at a time but, the fact it has phantom power just makes it that much more awesome. Highly recommend good quality, lightweight, super portable. It’s a podcaster, journalist, or musicians dream.

This is THE go-to device for podcasters all the way through pro level. It has an amazing toolbox of features including 4 xlr inputs (seperately controllable), 4 headphone outputs (again volume adjustable for each individually), a 4-button clip players (e.g. intros, outros, laughter, or anything you want from your recordings). Stores in a useful package of files. But most importantly, you can record directly conversations you make on your cellphone, or on your computer. And it is portable. Can handle a huge SD card (i'm using a 128 GB). Simple learning curve. I highly recommend the Zoom PodTrak P4.

I got rid of my Zoom H6 recorder in favor of this PodTrak P4 which I got from Best Buy. Why? Cuz this P4 device is specifically designed for podcasting live in-person and is also able to bring on remote guests by smartphone and/or USB channels with its built in "mix minus" functionality so the other person on the phone won't hear his own voice echo which will spoil the audio. The Zoom H6 recorder does not have this important mix-minus feature. I should also mention that I also have the Rode Rodecaster Pro podcasting device which I like a lot. The PodTrak P4 is no Rodecaster killer, but the P4 has one overriding attribute which is its very compact lightweight form factor that you can tote around town easily. I recently made a YouTube video about the Zoom P4 for providing a quick startup guide, plus including useful tips and tricks and necessary accessories to get to maximize the usefulness of the PodTrak P4.

My son purchased this for his podcast he wants to start. He likes it so far, it sounds great!

First time using this type of device but it’s perfect, from mic ports to recording to saving to making effects and so forth, you will be glad when you use it.
