Love it!

Jan 28, 2015

I purchased this product to allow students to simulate a radio broadcast. We use a decent mic plugged into the ZOOM with a line for music and we record into Adobe Audition. So far, it has been perfect. We plan to use this with Premiere to record into the timeline for voiceover and video narration, but haven't hooked that up yet. For the price, this was perfect.

zoom r24, 3.5 stars ..this is better than average rating.tascam and others make Multi Track Recorders,butthey seem to have even MORE problems on basic recording...use this as a recorder, it is ok,,,IF YOU NEEDall 8 tracks inputting at once, and if u need 6 of these ascondenser mics, yes...this is good for that,,,butbutbutthe Biggest prob for me is CONTINUOUS electronic noisefrom the mic preamps.if you use mics, ,,,ribbons, dynamics, or condensers...

A recorder that doesn't record!

Aug 10, 2014

Using this for on-set recording of short & feature films.. or so I thought. (Yes I know there were better-suited options in that price-range but I also needed a unit that could record live music as well.) . Although it takes quite some time (and skill, and just plain dumb luck from trial & error) to learn how to set it up as an INTERFACE, this unit WILL work flawlessly with the included Cubase LE software. However, it rarely works with other soft... Show More

RECORDED FILE DISAPPEARS!!

Aug 2, 2014

Well i've had my Zoom R24 for 3 years, but never really got the chance to use it more than maybe 3 times, during which it seemed to work as advertised. HOWEVER, recently, i've been needing to use it as a workhorse to record audio during 3 short films i'm making. After the first day, I was flabbergasted to discover NONE of the audio recorded, even though I followed the instructions to a tee. Yes, I have compatible & properly-formatted sd card, yes...

Useless

I regret buying this like you have no idea. To do anything you need to go through a dozen procedures and rituals and even then you dont end up satisfied with the result.

Bad clock is right....YAR!!!!!

Feb 3, 2012

That bad clock review was written days after I bought my R24 and I'm just discovering what they're talking about. I've now spent 4 months trying to figure out why when I'm at home just playing loops and recording nothing fits in my DAW. I loved this product at first, but now after trying to get it to just function properly I'm at an end. I replaced my Presonus Firestudio with this b/c it has more features and WOULD have been way better for what I... Show More

Easy to work - Great Bang for your Buck!

Jan 30, 2012

I found that the R24 is very easy to use as a stand alone recorder and to integrate with my computer. It would have been nicer to have a faster SD card. I did notice a difference once I purchased one. As for the price, I can't argue about the R24. I'm very happy with what it does for the price. I would recommend it to anyone on a budget.

Great features - too much noise!

Dec 3, 2011

I bought this unit based on many great reviews and because of personal recommendation. Actually the recommendation was for the Zoom R16, but the R24 had so many features I wanted that I opted for the R24. It all looked great! Then I started testing it and first thing I found was that the Gain knobs produced a lot of noise when adjusting gain. No biggy - for that kind of money I can live with noisy gain knobs. The dealbraker for me came when I tur... Show More

Bad Clock Generator?

Oct 15, 2011

There's so much potential in this product--it can do so much more than any other portable recorder at this price point--but it has a critical flaw that makes it absolutely useless to anyone recording audio for video (or anyone wanting to record accurate audio). By way of explanation, here's an email I wrote to Zoom's support department: Hello, I have a problem with my Zoom R24, and I'm hoping you can help me out. I bought the R24 to record audio ...

Ideal option for musicians w/ an ear

Oct 12, 2011

I've been recording and playing music for years, but this is my first stand alone multi track recorder. Within 2 days, I have recorded 3 new songs. This little box is great. EXCELLENT sound quality at 24 bit. As others have mentioned, it is not built like a tank, so I'd hesitate to treat it as truly portable, but the sound is excellent. A couple of factors that may be important to others... 1. effects only work in 44.1 khz, not 48 khz 2. all effects other than chorus and reverb only work on one channel at a time No more computers for me!

Excellent machine!

Jan 23, 2011

This is a fantastic deal for anyone who is setting up a home studio. It takes care of a whole bunch of stuff all at once. As an audio interface alone, with eight pre-amped inputs, is worth the $ it costs (I paid $400 on sale!). It's an easy to use multi-track recorder, the effects are OK, the pre-amps are OK, and as a control surface for the included Cubase,(an added bonus) it worked without a hitch. I dont care for drum-pads and such, but that's... Show More

Great value recorder

Oct 28, 2010

So far, I have used the R24 as a standalone recorder. The basic functions are easy to use, and the recording quality is quite good. I found the sampler a bit confusing. All in all, great unit, esp. given 24 channels, and would not hesitate to recommend it to a friend. The beauty of this unit is you can start standalone - take it anywhere - then interface to a DAW later. If you are coming from old school like a portastudio, this is a great transition product.

Eight Tracks

Aug 5, 2010

Having gone from the simple 4 track portastudio to a Yamaha AW16 (a fine sounding machine with an interface that drove me nuts) to the hassles of multitrack computer recording, this is a refreshingly easy to use device to get your ideas or backing tracks done fast. Similar products limit you to 2 tracks or a more expensive & complicated recorder. It is light & portable enough to use on its own or in the studio with several inputs connected. It so... Show More
