Pocket-sized recording interface that's ready to travel

Few audio interfaces compare to Zoom's U-24 when it comes to sheer portability. With the U-24, USB bus power is only the beginning. For one thing, it can run on a pair of AA batteries when bus power isn't available, making it an excellent audio interface to keep with your iPad (Camera Connection Kit required). And since the U-24 is so compact, you can comfortably carry it in your jacket pocket and be ready to record whenever and wherever inspiration strikes.

All the connections you need, plus Zoom Capsule input

Despite its diminutive size, the U-24 includes the essential analog I/O you need. A pair of TRL/XLR combo jacks serve as your main inputs, accommodating line-level sources and microphones - even supplying phantom power to condenser mics. What's more, there's a DI input, so you can plug in your guitar. Stereo RCA connections accommodate DJ setups, and MIDI I/O is great for keyboards and controllers.

Loaded with Zoom's top-quality preamps and conversion

For years, Zoom has been a leader in the world of portable preamps and digital conversion, with products such as the H4N, F8, and H6 breaking new ground in affordable mobile recording quality. Onboard the U-24, you'll find the same ones from the H6 that Sweetwater customers and field recording pros love, so you know you'll get clean and clear sound. Likewise, a set of 24-bit/96kHz onboard converters delivers reliable digital audio, making it easy to record studio-ready tracks out in the field.
