Produce Great-sounding Recordings

With the Zoom L-12 LiveTrak, recording an entire band becomes very simple. It allows you to capture 12 individual tracks onto an SD card at resolutions up to 24-bit/96kHz. You can then transfer your entire project to your (digital audio workstation) DAW for editing and processing or you can also mix and overdub directly within the Zoom L-12 using its onboard effects. It also allows you to record and mix your live performance simultaneously. You can even set up the LiveTrak to record automatically when the master fader notices a certain decibel level, making it suitable for situations where both the performer and the engineer are the same.

Craft Professional-quality Live Mixes

Crafting professional-quality live mixes have now become easier, thanks to the Zoom L-12 LiveTrak. Each of its twelve discrete channels comes with sixteen built-in effects and a three-band mid-parametric EQ. It also features eight combo jacks that accommodate both XLR & ¼-inch connectors and are packed with dedicated compressors and great-sounding mic preamps. Channels 11/12 & 9/10 have RCA & TRS connectivity for keyboards and other audio devices while channels 1 and 2 provide hi-Z inputs for your basses and guitars. It is designed with 12-segment LED metering, so you can keep an eye on your levels.

Create Five Custom Headphone Mixes

You won't require a separate personal monitor mixer for monitoring if you own the Zoom L-12 LiveTrack. Each of its 5 discrete monitor outputs offers a custom mix, so all members of your band can produce and save their own mix. The headphone amplifier provides sufficient volume, so even drummers would not have a hard time hearing.

More Than Just a Digital Mixer
