The Zoom L-12 LiveTrak is a 12-channel digital mixer that brings those jobs together, with multitrack recording to an SD card and five independent headphone mixes. For a band playing live, it records the performance while you mix, so you can later revisit individual parts rather than being limited to the stereo mix. It also works for rehearsal: each player can have a tailored headphone balance, while backing tracks or a click from a computer can join the live mix. For a project that needs more work after the session, record in WAV at up to 24-bit\/96 kHz and move the tracks to a DAW for editing and mixing. The L-12 records up to 14 tracks simultaneously and plays back up to 12. At 96 kHz, some functions—including effects, EQ, overdubbing and the audio-interface mode—aren’t available, so that higher rate is best reserved for sessions where those features aren’t needed. For bands and small production setups that need a mixer and recorder in one unit, that’s a useful distinction to know up front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 data-section=\"features\"\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFive separate headphone mixes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Each of the five headphone outputs has its own adjustable mix.

The Hi-Z inputs on channels 1 and 2 are especially handy for plugging in instruments such as an electric guitar or bass directly, rather than needing a separate DI for those connections. For microphones that need phantom power, the 48V supply is available on channels 1–4 and 5–8. That covers a full set of eight mic inputs across the two channel groups. I’d recommend it to bands that want to capture rehearsals as well as run their live mix from one console. Just bear in mind that 96 kHz recording disables several features; for sessions that need effects or overdubbing, choose a lower recording rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 data-section=\"extra\"\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SD card slot supports SD, SDHC and SDXC cards up to 512 GB. Automatic recording start and stop can take care of transport control during a session, while project protection helps guard saved work against accidental changes. Projects can also be imported or exported over USB 2.0, which is useful when moving sessions between the recorder and a computer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZoom L-12 LiveTrak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrand: Zoom\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModel: L-12 LiveTrak\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType: Digital mixer and multitrack recorder\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInput channels: 12 — eight mono and two stereo\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSimultaneous recording: Up to 14 tracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlayback: Up to 12 tracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRecording format: WAV, up to 24-bit\/96 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStorage media: SD, SDHC or SDXC card, up to 512 GB\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUSB audio interface: 14 inputs and 4 outputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicrophone inputs: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Zoom","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57453535265108,"sku":"314580","price":475.01,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/2493\/3716\/files\/314580_01.jpg?v=1791321465","url":"https:\/\/www.htf-store.com\/products\/zoom-l-12-livetrak","provider":"Hard to Find Camera Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
