A PodTrak Designed for the Modern, Mobile, and Connected Podcaster
The PodTrak P2 fits into the "quick creation" approach dedicated to podcasters and content creators who want clean results without multiplying devices. Where a traditional setup often requires an audio interface, a computer, plugins, and more complex management, the P2 concentrates the essentials in a compact format: voice processing, headphone monitoring, remote guest integration, and secure recording. The result: a coherent solution to produce faster, with consistent quality, both in the studio and on the go.Who It's For and What It's Used For
The Zoom PodTrak P2 is aimed at two-voice podcasts (interviews, co-hosting, duo segments), video creators who want to improve audio directly on their smartphone, and anyone streaming live on social networks while keeping a recorded copy. It also works very well for hybrid formats: one guest on-site and another remote via phone or computer. Thanks to physical volume and mute controls per microphone, you maintain control over the dynamics of a conversation without relying on software or a mouse.Processing and Features: Cleaner Sound Capture Without Complexity
Built-in Voice Processing: Tone, De-esser, Compressor
The P2 helps you achieve a more controlled timbre right from recording. The tone balances the overall color of the voice, the de-esser reduces harsh sibilance, and the compression stabilizes levels to avoid large differences between quiet passages and volume peaks. Ideal for more comfortable podcasts to listen to and to reduce post-production time.AI-Assisted Noise Reduction
Designed for real environments (untreated rooms, ventilation, computer noise, light background sounds), the P2 analyzes unwanted noise during conversation as well as during quiet moments. The goal is simple: preserve intelligibility and keep the voice centered in the mix. This is a key asset for creators who often record outside the studio or want an effective solution without endless adjustments.Remote Guest: Mix-Minus and Listening Comfort
Inviting a remote guest can quickly cause echo, feedback, or annoying returns. The P2 includes a Mix-Minus function that automatically blocks feedback and echo during calls, allowing the guest to be integrated as if they were in the room. You keep clear headphone monitoring, which helps better hosting and limits interruptions.Standalone Recorder and USB Audio Interface: Simultaneous Recording + Streaming
The PodTrak P2 can operate as a standalone recorder while serving as a USB audio interface (2 inputs / 2 outputs) with a smartphone or computer. You can thus stream live while recording an editable version for archiving or editing. The P2 records both a stereo mix for quick sharing and individual tracks to adjust levels or clean up a passage later.Secure Creation: Audio Alerts and Automatic Backup
During a session, small details can ruin everything: low batteries, full card, wrong settings. The P2 offers audio notifications in the headphone output to guide you without interrupting your recording. And to reduce risks related to power cuts, it performs an automatic backup of files every 10 seconds, a real plus when recording on the go.Technical specifications
