Zoom M3 MicTrak Stereo Shotgun Recorder

Perfect Sound With Every Picture. In One Take.

The M3 MicTrak offers filmmakers the ability to enhance their content with pristine sound quality. Designed to be mounted on a camera, the stereo microphone with built-in recorder records every sonic nuance with 32-bit float technology.

The First Shotgun Mic with 32-Bit Float Recording

The M3 records clipping-free audio at all times. Thanks to 32-bit float recording, no equalisation is necessary. Whether it's dialogue, sound effects, or ambience in outdoor recordings, you'll always get a perfect recording.

Absolutely ready at all times. The specially designed elastic mount keeps weight to a minimum and ensures minimal transmission of handheld noise.

Mono and stereo modes. Switch easily between mono and stereo modes. Mono mode is ideal for dialogue recording. 90º provides accurate, transparent stereo recording. 120º stands for a generous stereo pick-up, which is especially recommended for atmosphere or sound effects.

More Flexibility In Post-Production

The M3 saves a backup file in mid-side RAW format at any time, giving you the flexibility to adjust the stereo width of the recording in post-production.

Backup for your recordings. Use the 3.5mm stereo output to connect the M3 to your camera and record a backup there. This is especially useful for synchronising audio to a video.

Effectiveness in post-production. With the M3 Edit and Play software, you can adjust the stereo width of your recordings and normalise your files to prepare them for dubbing and post-production.

USB Mic - Connect the USB-C port to a PC or Mac to use the M3 as a USB microphone for streaming or recording.

Monitoring - Listen to your recordings via the 3.5mm headphone output.

Power Supply - Power the M3 on long production days with up to 12 hours of recording from two Type AA batteries.
