Description

The Zoom Instamic Pro Plus C Mono is an ultra-compact, waterproof 32-bit float recorder that lets you capture pristine audio practically anywhere. Small enough to hide on talent, mount on vehicles or clip to action cameras, it delivers broadcast-quality sound without worrying about clipping, cables or the weather.

With its rugged IP67-rated housing, powerful omnidirectional MEMS microphone and built-in timecode, Instamic Pro Plus C Mono is ideal for filmmakers, content creators, sound designers and vloggers who need reliable, high-quality audio in challenging environments. Use it as a standalone recorder, a Bluetooth microphone for your phone or computer, or wirelessly with supported action cameras for perfectly synced sound on the move.

Ultra-Compact 32-bit Float Recorder

Instamic Pro Plus C Mono packs professional 32-bit float recording into a body that measures only 1.5 x 1 x 0.5 inches. That means you can place it where traditional recorders and wireless packs simply will not go, from hiding it in clothing to mounting it on vehicles or props. The tiny footprint keeps it out of shot while still capturing full-range, detailed audio.

No-Clipping 32-bit Float Capture

Thanks to dual A/D converters and 32-bit float recording, Instamic Pro Plus C Mono can handle everything from quiet dialogue to screaming exhausts without clipping or distortion. You do not need to ride gain or worry about sudden level changes; the full dynamic range is captured, giving you maximum flexibility in post-production. This model records in mono mode, ideal for dialogue, effects and focused sound sources.

Waterproof and Adventure Ready

With an IP67 rating, Instamic Pro Plus C Mono is built to keep recording when conditions get tough. It withstands rain, splashes, snow and even full submersion in up to 1 metre of water for up to 30 minutes. Dust and dirt are kept at bay too, making it a powerful tool for outdoor shoots, sports, automotive work and any situation where conventional recorders would be at risk.

Timecode, Bluetooth and App Control

Instamic Pro Plus C Mono features an internal timecode clock with 2.5 ppm accuracy and supports Atomos and Tentacle Sync wireless timecode, so you can lock audio and video together without drift. It can also function as a Bluetooth microphone for your phone or computer, integrating with popular apps, and is fully controllable via the Instamic Remote app on iOS and Android. Power on, monitor, sync timecode and adjust a 3-band EQ for up to 10 units from a single device.
