Thank you for purchasing the ZOOM MultiTrak Recording
Studio MRS-4
(subsequently referred to as "the MRS-4").
The MRS-4 offers the following attractive features.
◆ Simultaneous 4-track playback/2-track recording
8 virtual takes per track add up to a total of 32 takes available
for recording.
◆ Flexible track parameter settings
Hi/Lo EQ, effect send, and other parameters can be set
individually for each track.
◆ Bounce feature supports recording from 4 tracks of
simultaneous playback
Even when there are no empty tracks, the MRS-4 allows you
to bounce existing material onto 2 tracks, while performing
simultaneous playback of 4 tracks.
◆ Versatile effects
The MRS-4 incorporates an insert effect for processing the
input signal, a send/return effect for use in a mixer loop, and a
mixdown effect for use on the master bus.
◆ Other sophisticated features
Metronome, MIDI output, AUX input, long-stroke faders, and
other exciting features make the MRS-4 a great all-round
package.
In order to take full advantage of the MRS-4's versatile
functionality and to ensure trouble-free enjoyment, please
read this manual carefully. Keep this manual in a safe
place together with the warranty card.
Operation Manual

Safety Precautions
In this manual, symbols are used to highlight warnings
and cautions for you to read so that accidents can be
prevented. The meanings of these symbols are as
follows:
This symbol indicates explanations
about extremely dangerous matters. If
users ignore this symbol and handle the
device the wrong way, serious injury or
death could result.
This symbol indicates explanations
about dangerous matters. If users ignore
this symbol and handle the device the
wrong way, bodily injury and damage to
the equipment could result.
Please observe the following safety tips and precautions
to ensure hazard-free use of the MRS-4.
About power
Since power consumption of this unit is fairly high, we
recommend the use of an AC adapter whenever
possible. When powering the unit from the batteries, use
only an alkaline type.
AC adapter operation
• Be sure to use only an AC adapter which supplies 9 V DC,
300 mA and is equipped with a "center minus" plug (Zoom
AD-0006).
The use of an adapter other than the specified type may
damage the unit and pose a safety hazard.
• Connect the AC adapter only to an AC outlet that supplies
the rated voltage required by the adapter.
• When disconnecting the AC adapter from the AC outlet,
always grasp the adapter itself and do not pull at the cable.
• If the unit is not to be used for a long time, disconnect the
AC adapter from the outlet.
Battery operation
•
Use four IEC R6 (size AA) batteries (alkaline or manganese).
• The MRS-4 cannot be used for recharging.
Pay close attention to the labelling of the battery to make
sure you choose the correct type.
• If the MRS-4 is not to be used for an extended period of
time, remove the battery from the unit.
• If batteries leakage has occurred, wipe the battery
compartment and the battery terminals carefully to remove
all remnants of battery fluid.
• While using the unit, the battery compartment cover should
be closed.
Environment
Avoid using your MRS-4 in environments where it will
be exposed to:
• Extreme temperature
• High humidity or moisture
• Excessive dust or sand
• Excessive vibration or shock
Handling
• Since the MRS-4 is a precision electronic device,
avoid applying excessive force to the controls. Do not
operate the keys or controls with your foot.
• Take care that no foreign objects (coins or pins etc.)
or liquids can enter the unit.
• Be sure to turn the power to all equipment off before
making connections.
• Before moving the unit, turn the power off, and
disconnect all cables and the AC adapter.
Alterations
Never open the case of the MRS-4 or attempt to
modify the product in any way since this can
result in damage to the unit.
In Case of Trouble
If there seems to be a defect or a problem with
the unit, immediately disconnect the AC adapter
or remove the batteries to shut off the power.
Then disconnect any other cables connected to
the unit.
Usage Precautions
• Electrical interference
For safety considerations, the MRS-4 has been designed
to provide maximum protection against the emission of
electromagnetic radiation from inside the device, and
protection from external interference. However,
equipment that is very susceptible to interference or that
emits powerful electromagnetic waves should not be
placed near the MRS-4, as the possibility of interference
cannot be ruled out entirely.
With any type of digital control device, the MRS-4
included, electromagnetic interference can cause
malfunctioning and can corrupt or destroy data. Care
should be taken to minimize the risk of damage.
• Cleaning
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the MRS-4. If necessary,
slightly moisten the cloth. Do not use abrasive cleanser,
wax, or solvents (such as paint thinner or cleaning
alcohol), since these may dull the finish or damage the
surface.
Please keep this manual at hand for future
reference.

The MRS-4 provides three types of effects:
insert effect, mixdown effect, and send/return
effect. These effects have different
characteristics, as described below.
■ Insert effect
This effect operates directly after the input
mixer. It is used to modify the input signal
before it is recorded.
■ Mixdown effect
This effect operates directly before the
MASTER faders of the track mixer. It is used
to modify the signal mixed from tracks 1 – 4.
■ Send/return effect
This effect is internally connected to the
send/return loop of the mixer section. The
effect can be adjusted individually for each
track by using the send level control. The
higher the setting, the stronger the effect.
The MRS-4 has two types of mixers.
■ Input mixer
Serves to adjust the instrument or mic signal
input to the MRS-4 and to assign the signal
to the desired track.
■ Track mixer
Serves to mix the playback signal of the
recorder before sending it to the stereo output
jacks. The signal from each of tracks 1 – 4 is
sent to the mixer channels 1 – 4 for
individual adjustment of EQ, effect send
level, panning (left/right playback position),
etc. These items are called track parameters.
SmartMedia
To use the MRS-4, a SmartMedia card is
required. Before turning the MRS-4 on, insert
the card into the front panel slot, as shown in
the illustration below.
◆ Caution ◆
●
If the card is inserted upside down or
with wrong orientation, it does not go all
the way in. Do not try to force the card
in, because this will damage the card.
●
Never insert or remove the SmartMedia
card while power to the unit is turned on.
Otherwise data may be lost.
●
Standard SmartMedia cards (designed
for 3.3V) with a capacity from 16 – 128
MB can be used.
●
When wishing to use a SmartMedia card
that has been formatted in other
equipment such as a computer or digital
camera, you must format the card again
in the MRS-4, as described on page 53.

Internal configuration
The MRS-4 is divided internally into the
following three sections.
■ Recorder section
The MRS-4 is a 4-track recorder that uses
SmartMedia cards for storing data. This
allows audio recording/playback on four
tracks.
■ Effect section
The audio signal can be processed in various
ways by the effect section. The MRS-4 offers
an insert effect for the input signal as well as
a send/return effect and mixdown effect for
use on the recorderd signal.
■ Mixer section
This section is used for mixing the various
signals and supplying them to the other
sections. There is an input mixer for
assigning the input signal to various tracks,
and a track mixer that adjusts level and sound
quality for each track before sending the
result to the left and right MASTER jacks.
The illustration below shows the signal flow
and how the sections fit together.
Now let's take a closer look at each section.
The recorder section of the MRS-4 has four
tracks (separate segments for recording audio
data). Up to two tracks can be recorded
simultaneously, and up to four tracks can be
played back simultaneously. Each of the
tracks 1 – 4 has eight virtual tracks (called
"V-takes"). In each track, one V-take can be
selected for recording/playback. For
example, you can record guitar solos onto
multiple V-takes, and then compare them
later to select the best take.
