Zoom P01PMC Instamic Pro Plus C Mono Recorder.
Compact, rugged, and extremely capable, the Zoom Instamic Pro Plus C Mono is a 32-bit float field recorder engineered to capture pristine audio across a broad dynamic range—eliminating clipping and preserving nuance even in challenging conditions.
With dual MEMS omni microphones built into its compact shell, this recorder faithfully captures full-spectrum audio from 40 Hz to 20 kHz. It tolerates sound peaks up to 135 dB SPL, making it ideal for both quiet ambient scenes and powerful live performances.
Designed for durability, the unit is rated IP67 waterproof and dustproof, allowing submersion up to 1 meter for 30 minutes, ideal for outdoor, travel, or adventurous recording scenarios. Timecode support with a precise 2.5 ppm internal clock enables seamless syncing with professional video and audio systems. Bluetooth connectivity and a companion app allow remote control, monitoring, and setup.
The recorder is powered via USB-C and delivers several hours of continuous operation on a full charge. A generous 16 GB of internal storage accommodates long mono recordings—up to ~22 hours in 32-bit float mode. Multiple mounting options, including magnetic clip, adhesive, and nano suction tape, give you flexibility in placement without cumbersome rigging.
Despite its diminutive size—just a few centimeters on each side—and 18 g weight, this recorder is a powerhouse. Whether you need an ultra-compact field recorder, a discreet backup recorder, or a timecode-sync solution for video shoots, the Instamic Pro Plus C Mono brings pro-level performance in a remarkably small package.
