Designed By Musicians
All of our engineers are musicians and they designed the R4 to empower musicians to explore big ideas. With a unique dedicated ‘bounce track’ and 32-bit float recording, the R4 is perfect for capturing your most ambitious compositions.

Record. Bounce. Repeat.
With the R4, you can record up to four tracks, mix and then bounce them to the dedicated ‘bounce track.’ This lets you free up additional tracks to keep adding layers. You can choose to do a ‘quick’ bounce or mix and bounce in real time. The R4 also allows you to ‘undo’ your last bounce, if you’re not satisfied with the results.

32-Bit Float Recording
The R4 captures perfect audio with every take, without the need to set gain.

Track Effects
Each track features a 3-band EQ, pan, echo, and reverb to refine your mix.

Input Effects
Apply effects to input A such as amp simulations, delays, distortions and more.

Built-In Microphone
The R4 features a high-quality built-in microphone, perfect for acoustic guitars, vocals, or capturing a quick reference recording.

Much More Than A Metronome
The R4 has a rhythm section preloaded with over 80 different drum patterns to play along with featuring genres such as rock, hip hop, funk, heavy metal, and more.

Every Take Is Saved
Tracks that you record are automatically saved individually, even after they have been bounced.

32-Bit Float Audio Interface
The R4 is also a powerful 2-in/ 2-out USB audio interface with 32-bit float technology. Connect it to either your computer or smartphone.

Control and Create
With a fader for each track and dedicated hardware buttons for the most used functions, you won’t need to menu dive to record your music.

Powered For Your Ideas
The R4 can be powered by 4 AA Batteries, or through its USB-C port.
