The LiveTrak L6 is Zoom's most compact, portable digital mixing console with a built-in 10-track 32-bit float recorder.
With 2 XLR/jack combo inputs, 4 stereo line inputs (2 of which can be used as USB returns), 2 aux sends, internal effects, MIDI and sound/sampling pads, it's perfect for bands, synthesizers, live streaming and more. It can also be battery powered and mounted in a Eurorack with optional rack brackets.
Professional sound, compact form
The LiveTrak L-6 is a compact yet powerful digital mixer and multitrack recorder, designed to deliver high-quality audio in a portable format. Despite its small footprint, it offers 10 tracks of studio-grade recording, making it ideal for bands, solo performers, and streamers. Each track features its own channel strip, complete with pan control, effects, and a 3-band mid-sweepable EQ, giving you total flexibility for shaping your sound.
The ability to record up to 10 discrete tracks plus the full stereo mix means you’ll capture every detail. Save your work directly to a microSD card with up to 2TB of space, and transfer it to your favourite DAW for editing with ease.
32-bit float technology for flawless audio
The L-6 is equipped with advanced 32-bit float technology, allowing you to capture clear, high-resolution audio without worrying about clipping. This ensures that even if your levels change drastically during a performance, your recordings remain pristine. The technology also eliminates the need to adjust gain settings manually, saving you time and reducing the risk of errors during live recording sessions.
Flexible MIDI control
With integrated 3.5mm MIDI I/O, the LiveTrak L-6 opens up a world of connectivity for your outboard gear. You can map volume, EQ, and pan settings to external devices, allowing for more complex control of your sound. The MIDI functionality also supports triggering sound pads and scene switching, providing enhanced control during live performances or broadcasts. This makes the L-6 a great fit for electronic musicians or anyone looking to integrate synthesizers and other MIDI-enabled hardware into their setup. Sync your tempo-based effects like delay and echo with the rest of your gear, ensuring everything stays locked in and perfectly timed throughout your performance.
Optimised for streaming and live use
For creators who stream live audio or video, the L-6 is an ideal tool. It connects seamlessly to streaming software on Mac, PC, iOS, and Android, delivering broadcast-quality audio wherever you are. The built-in compressor on the main output ensures your audio levels stay balanced, while adding a natural saturation that enhances overall sound quality. For added convenience, the L-6 can run on four AA batteries for up to three hours, or on a USB power bank for longer sessions, making it perfect for field recording or mobile gigs.
