Filmmakers can use the two XLR inputs for dialogue, while using the X/Y mics to record ambience. In post, your recordings can easily be synced to video, thanks to the M4’s onboard timecode generator.
Make Great Sounding Music Videos

WAV Watching
Keep an eye on all four tracks of your recording using the M4’s color LCD with a real-time waveform display.
