Need a Tiny Affordable Multitrack USB Mixer Recorder? Zoom LiveTrak L6 Review | Tutorial
@ZoomSoundLab @ZOOMcorporation
The latest LiveTrak from Zoom has impressive features and a cool UI. In this video learn all the features with a strong focus on how to use it as a USB audio interface. I also go over firmware, the LiveTrakL6 Editor app for Mac and Windows. Even take look inside at the circuits to see what makes this impressive technology work. Designed for 32-bit operation there are some considerations you need to make for compatibility.
Released late 2024. I saw this as one of the featured items at the Zoom booth at Winter NAMM 2025!

For an alternative mixer than can do multitrack recording over USB or to SD card, check out my recent review of the Mackie Onyx 8! https://youtu.be/og3pk6YYhF0?si=pjPGMAkSF-Dd9uy5
Where do the 4 channel outs come out ? Mix and ?
Recently bought one of these. Great little mixer for the price. My only complaint is I wish I could change the sample rate to 44.1khz so i could use it as an audio interface for my MPC. It would be absolutely perfect for the added inputs.
Great video, by the way.
Excellent overview
