Zoom M3 MicTrak Stereo Shotgun Microphone with Recorder

General

With the M3 MicTrak shotgun microphone, Zoom do something special. This lightweight camera microphone is able to capture and record distortion and noise-free sound in 32-bit float quality without the need for levelling or an external recorder. Besides stereo recordings, this shotgun supports X/Y setups, recording in mid-side (M/S) RAW and has a 90° or 120° mono polar pattern. The superior audio quality is incredibly detailed whether capturing immersive sound effects in 120° recording mode; focussed dialogue in mono mode; or transparent stereo audio in 90° mode.

Smart Post Production Features

To speed-up the post-production process, the M3 features an automatic back-up function that continuously saves your audio in mid-side RAW so the stereo image is easily adjusted at the point of editing, and the fitted 3.5mm stereo mini-jack output can be used to send the audio directly to the camera to record backup audio and make synchronising the sound and image that bit easier. A maximum recording quality of 96kHz is assured in standard mode, which switches to 48kHz in Audio Interface mode, and SDHC and SDXC MicroSD cards with a maximum capacity of 1 terabyte are supported. To keep things flexible, the M3 MicTrak can also be hooked up to a computer using the included USB-C cable.
