Zoom LiveTrak L-12 mixer and audio recorder

Zoom LiveTrak L-12 mixer/recorder

The Zoom LiveTrak L-12 is a mixer, recorder, and sound card all in one. The mixer also has a built-in metronome.

12 inputs allow you to connect multiple microphones or instruments to the mixer. 8 of the inputs are Combo XLR mono inputs with phantom power, which allow you to connect both XLR and 1/4" cables. The mixer also has two 1/4" & RCA mic/line inputs. Channels 1-2 also offer Hi-Z connections for guitars and basses, among other things.

Each channel has its own 12-segment LED meter for monitoring the sound. There are five 1/4" TRS outputs for connecting headphones, which can also be used to connect an audio monitor. The mixes of each headphone output can be adjusted separately.

When the L-12 is used as a recorder, audio is recorded to an SD card (max. 512Gb). This allows you to record each channel and the master, i.e. a total of 14 tracks at 44.1/48kHZ resolution. The recorder also allows for overdubbing, which allows you to record, for example, a narration over the music afterwards.

The Zoom L-12 also functions as a 14-in/4-out USB sound card when connected to a computer. A class compliant mode switch allows the device to work with iOS devices. All you need is a Lightning to USB adapter.
