The R12 sports a large, colorful 2.4" LCD touchscreen with intuitive control functions like swipe editing, two XLR-1/4" TRS combo inputs, with Hi-Z on input 1 and selectable phantom power on both, balanced 1/4" monitor outputs, a 3.5mm output with support for high-powered headphones, and a USB-C terminal for audio interface and bus power duties (cable included). Powering the R12 is as simple as loading in four AA batteries for up to 5 hours of continuous use, and you can also power the unit with the included AD-17 AC adapter, providing three methods of powering your recorder.
