Zoom unveils the new LiveTrak L-8

23. October 2019| Zoom

Zoom is excited to introduce the new Zoom LiveTrak L-8; a portable digital mixer and recorder, ideal for podcast and music recording in the studio and on the go.

The L-8 combines a digital mixer with 8 input channels, and a multi-track recorder capable of recording up to 12 tracks simultaneously. It can be used as a 12-in / 4-out USB audio interface even while you are recording to the SD card.

Podcasters can connect up to 4 pairs of headphones which can be feeded by the L-8´s 3 independent monitor mixes and 1 master mix.

Sound effects are a necessity for podcasters. The L-8 has 6 sound pads that can be used to play intros, jingles, sound effects, a music bed, and more. You can trigger a pre-recorded ad or interview to give your hosts a break.

Remote podcast guests can be problematic, but not with the L-8. Equipped with a smartphone connection jack and an included TRRS cable, the L-8 is ideal for podcasting with call-in guests. The Mix-Minus function automatically prevents echo and feedback to and from your caller. You can also use the USB connection to route audio from Skype, Facetime, Hangouts, Slack, and more.

Powered with four AA batteries for up to 2 ½ hours, the L-8 is your anytime, anywhere recorder and mixer. For longer recording sessions, you can connect a portable USB battery, and if the USB battery dies, it will automatically switch to the AA battery power. You can always power the L-8 using wall power with the included power adapter. The new Zoom Livetrak L8 will be available October 2019 for 449,- Euro.
