ZOOM LiveTrack L8
ZOOM LiveTrack L8
Creators are evolving — and so are we. The Zoom LiveTrak L-8 makes it easier than ever to mix, monitor, and record professional-sounding podcasts and music performances in one portable, affordable package.
Power to the Podcast
Podcast creators are a special breed. They require a unique set of audio features, along with the flexibility of a proper mixing console. The LiveTrak L-8 combines Zoom's renowned audio performance with features made for podcasters.
Magic sound cushion
With the press of a button, you can play intros, outros, jingles, announcements, and sound effects. With 6 easily assignable sound pads, the right sound is at your fingertips.
Remote interviews are a breeze with the L-8
Simply connect your phone via the supplied TRRS cable. The Mix-Minus function automatically prevents echo and feedback to and from the caller. Or use the USB connection to route audio from Skype, Facetime, Hangouts, Slack, and more.
Freedom of expression
Zoom's preamps are famous for good reason: they're transparent, powerful, and ultra-reliable. The L-8 features six independent Zoom preamps, designed to handle anything from a whisper to a raucous debate.
A track for all
Professionals know that when you record each one on its own separate track, it sounds better and offers more flexibility in editing. The L-8 records separate tracks directly to your SD card, allowing you to edit them later.
Hear yourself speak
If you can't hear yourself, how are you going to say what you think? The L-8 is equipped with four headphone outputs, so that each participant can clearly hear what is happening.
In the air, on the move
The Zoom LiveTrak L-8 can run up to 1 1/2 hours on just four AA batteries or a USB battery pack, so you can podcast from anywhere.
Record twice, once
Used as an audio interface, the L-8 can record full episodes directly to your computer and to an SD card simultaneously. You can also do a live stream while recording.
* L-8 is class-compliant, allowing connection to iOS devices. An Apple Lightning to USB camera adapter is required.
Save settings. Save time.
Once you've marked your mix... save it! The L-8 allows you to save up to 7 show "scenes" that can be saved and recalled instantly at the push of a button
Small in size, big on sound
From singer-songwriters to small bands, the L-8 is the ideal mixer and recorder for musicians who may be small in number but big on sound.
Coming loud and clear
The L-8 features six high-performance preamps, each with phantom power, low noise level (-121dBU EIN), and a maximum input gain of +54dB. In addition, there are two Hi-Z inputs, line-level and USB. You can also adjust each channel with built-in EQ and effects.
True multitrack recording
The L-8 allows you to record up to 10 discrete tracks, as well as a stereo mix, directly to an SD card with resolutions up to 24-bit/96kHz*. You can punch-in and overdub with ease and then transfer your work to your favorite DAW for fine-tuning.
*Effects, EQ, overdub, and audio interface are not available at 96kHz.
Go Out & Play
Is there no way out? No problem. Get up to 1 1/2 hours of power with just four AA batteries. You can also use a USB battery pack, and with the L-8's unique USB connection design, you'll never have to worry about accidentally disconnecting.
Individual monitor mixes
Never settle for that "compromise" monitor mix again. The L-8 offers three custom monitor mixes, so no matter where you are on stage, you'll hear exactly what you need.
High-quality audio interface
The L-8 is also a 12-in/4-out audio interface. Record directly to your favourite DAW or use the USB return to play backing tracks from your computer.
