Zoom’s LiveTrak mixers are lauded for their versatility, in addition to their multimode mixer and audio-interface operational capabilities. Also, these mixers feature a slew of onboard tools that make them as formidable in studio and live settings as a creative tool kit unto itself. Now, Zoom has distilled the voltaic formula into LiveTrak L6, a powerful, mobility-minded system that’s been optimized for synth-based and beat-production setups that require pliability and portability in equal doses. Like its series siblings, the 10-channel LiveTrak L6 is a digital mixer that supports high-fidelity capture with dual functionality as an audio interface — 12-in/4-out — that specifically utilizes 32-bit float multitrack recording of up to 12 tracks simultaneously. Its synth-focused appointments, however, are where this digital dark horse departs from the pack, impressing Sweetwater’s studio scholars with its versatile connectivity suite that doesn’t compromise quality for mobility. Onboard MIDI I/O and functionality as a USB MIDI interface are augmented by the L6’s four assignable sample pads and Eurorack compatibility, expanding its interoperative capabilities for both mixing and performance to encompass a vast array of instrumental-control configurations. Its pair of combination XLR and TRS inputs, alongside four stereo-paired inputs and two dedicated auxiliary sends, allow for immense interoperative integration with nearly any setup. What’s more, its 3-band EQ lets you adjust mid-frequency values for each channel, ensuring that your deployment of its pentacle of Send Effects is perfectly dialed in for sonic contouring of any physical, virtual, analog, or digital instrument in your synth or DJ dominion. Toss in four AA batteries, and you’re ready to LiveTrak on the road. Where will your synth sonics take you first?
