Great sound in one take

The Zoom M2 MicTrak is a compact field recorder designed to deliver impressive recording quality with minimal effort, combining portability with a surprisingly versatile feature set. Its innovative X/Y microphone capsule captures stereo audio with clarity, while support for up to 32-bit float recording helps preserve detail even in demanding recording situations. A specially finished housing reduces unwanted handling noise during operation, and the built-in LCD screen provides clear visual feedback with live waveforms while recording. For interviews and spoken content, the recorder can be switched to mono mode to focus more directly on the speaker, making it suitable for a wide range of content creation tasks. Powered by two AA batteries, for up to 11 hours of operation, the recorder is immensely practical for mobile use and offers a simple way to achieve clean, studio-quality recordings almost anywhere.

32-bit float for finest quality

With 32-bit float recording on the Zoom M2 MicTrak, highly detailed captures can be made while effectively eliminating issues caused by clipping; overall gain can be adjusted afterwards, removing the need for precise level setting before recording. The interface has been kept intentionally minimalistic, with a single control on the far left for switching between stereo and mono modes, supporting both ambient and focused voice recording. In the central section, two buttons control headphone volume, while the headphone jack is positioned on the left side for direct monitoring during use. A dedicated low cut function adds a low-cut filter to reduce unwanted low-frequency noise such as footfall, improving recording clarity in mobile environments. Below this, the transport section provides straightforward control over recording and playback, ensuring efficient and accessible operation in the field.

Zoom M2 MicTrak with mount

A true all-rounder

The Zoom M2 MicTrak is designed as a versatile all-round field recorder, suitable for a wide range of recording situations, from capturing instrumental performances to recording interviews with clarity and precision. Its stereo mode is particularly well suited for podcast interviews, while the microphone-style body allows secure mounting on standard microphone stands and precise positioning toward the sound source. This flexibility also makes it useful for musicians, as stereo recording can capture both the direct performance and the surrounding ambience, while mono mode can later be used for focused speech or presentations. Weighing just 204 grams with batteries, it remains very lightweight and easy to handle, and the included windscreen helps ensure cleaner outdoor recordings by reducing wind noise.

About Zoom

Founded in 1983, the Japanese company Zoom manufactures a variety of audio equipment, including a range of portable "handy" recorders as well as multi-effects processors, effects pedals, drum machines, and samplers. Over the past thirty years, the company has built a reputation for producing innovative yet affordable products based on original microchip designs. Since the Zoom-9002 (an ultra-compact multi-effects processor that can be attached to a guitar strap) was introduced in 1990, Zoom has become one of the leaders in digital audio processing.

Flexible recording conversion

All recorded data on the Zoom M2 MicTrak is stored on a microSD card (sold separately), providing a simple and flexible storage solution for field recordings. Recordings can be normalised directly on the device's menu, allowing levels to be optimised afterwards for clearer and more usable results without requiring precise gain adjustment during capture. In addition, 32-bit float recordings can be converted internally to 16-bit or 24-bit formats, ensuring broad compatibility with a wide range of audio software and workflows. The device also functions as a USB audio interface when connected to a computer, enabling direct transfer or live recording of audio captured through its internal X/Y capsule, streamlining both mobile and studio-based production setups.

An almost perfect carry everywhere, do anything recorder.
Rixy 18.06.2023
We bought this for recording quick, off-the-cuff podcasts and interviews and it does that job very well. The sound quality is excellent for the price, the stereo separation is really nice and not having to worry about recording levels makes it super quick and easy to use.
The old issue of RF interference in the early versions seems to have been fixed. Handling noise is perfectly reasonable for a recorder of this design.
I think we'll be using it for a lot more than quick podcasts.
Two things I don't like about it -
1, the main material it's made of looks a bit cheap and fragile. Time will tell.
2, I would have preferred a metal grille over the mics. Again it looks a bit cheap and fragile.
For the money it's a really nice, versatile recorder capable of some great-sounding results but I'd happily pay a bit more for a version made of better materials and with a metal grille.

Unfassbar gut
Buenlimon 16.01.2024
Ich habe wirklich sehr viel aufgenommen und das mit Smartphone, mit Kondensatormikrofonen, mit Videokameras, mit Zoom H2, und aus dem Mischpult heraus und so weiter. Ich habe dieses winzige Teil gekauft, weil ich auf der Beschreibung verstanden habe, dass man nur auf dem roten Knopf drücken muss und das Gerät macht alles andere selbst. So richtig glauben konnte ich das nicht, aber ich habe die finanziellen Mittel um es zu probieren. Die Aufnahmen sind vollkommen frei von Nebengeräuschen, sind kristallklar. Was die Bedienung angeht, wundert man sich darüber, dass es nichts kann außer (1) aufnehmen, (2) die schlechten löschen (3) die guten in WAV-Format ggf normalisiert zu exportieren. Kein Schneiden, keine Effekte, kein MP3, kein Zusammenfügen. Aber genau das ist das gute. Das machen wir nächsten Tag in aller Seelenruhe auf dem Computer. Das Gerät kann genau, was es tun soll: Aufnehmen. Es sind die besten Aufnahmen, die ich jemals gehört habe. Ich weiß nicht, wie Zoom das hinbekommen hat, besondere Mikrofone, besondere Technik. Ist auch egal, wer dieses Ding hat, kann alles aufnehmen, was ihm in den Sinn kommt und es wird immer gut. Von mir aus eine 100%ige Empfehlung.

Top Handyrecorder ohne wirkliche Minuspunkte
Ebeso D. 20.03.2026
Zuerst fiel meine Auswahl auf den "Zoom H1essential" . EIn sehr zierliches Gerät das mich (obwohl ich schon Jahre vorher einen Zoom recorder hatte) etliche Stunden Nerven kostete weil das winzige Display voll mit Informationen war die ich als Brillenträger kaum lesen konnte. Ein Spazierganz in der Natur mit Vogelgezwitscher und Wasserrauschen zeigte, daß die Aufnahmequalität über jeden Zweifel erhaben war. Nach drei Tagen ging das Teil zurück und dann stach mir als Ersatz das Zoom M2 MicTrak ins Auge. Ich hatte das Teil erstmal für ein reines Mikrofon gehalten. Es ist aber sehr viel mehr: Wesentlich weniger Störgeräusche beim in der Hand halten, Sinnvolles Zubehör ohne Aufpreis, und - für mich von größter Bedeutung - ein größeres helles u. aufgeräumtes Display. Würde den Zoom M2 MicTrak Recorder jederzeit weiterempfehlen.
P.S. Ein kleiner Minuspunkt: Es scheint mir, daß die Datumseingabe u. Uhrzeit mach dem Ausschalten weg ist. ISt mir aber nicht so wichtig.

Bon micro enregistreur à très faible prix
Kiki-Derrien 23.12.2024
Tester à de nombreuses reprises, il est tres simple d'utilisation et sonne très bien.
Je l'utilise comme me bloc-note sonore pour mémoriser des creations. je l'utilise également pour enregistrer voix ou guitar ou piano, enregistrements que je met, grace à la carte SD, sur mon PC et que je traites avec Ableton 11. On peut faire de très bonnes démo sonores graces à ce micro. J'ai également un Shure Béta 87 pour la voix. Le Shure est sensiblement meilleur mais à un prix bien plus élevé.
- En conclusion il est parfait pour un chanteur pianiste ou guitariste ayant un faible budget pour enregistrer en nomade ou pour faire des enregistrements plus serieux. Un traitement sera necessaire sur un DAW (Ableton, Cubase etc.) pour réaliser une démo correcte mais comme pourn'importe quel micro même très cher. Je devrais mettre prochainement sur YT des clips vidéo avec voix et instrus uniquement enregistrés avec le Zoom M2
