Zoom LiveTrak L-20 Digital Mixer

The Zoom LiveTrak L-20 mixer is the complete package for recording and mixing in the studio or at live shows. With 20 inputs, you can oversee huge arrangements with ease. 

Expect pristine quality audio from all channels thanks to a 24-bit SD card. A huge headroom of 60 dB of maximum input gain makes this their quietest and most advanced preamp ever. 

Inputs and EQ

Zoom have gone further than ever before to give you ultimate control, using a 3-band EQ, solo and mute buttons, and fader and compressor dial for all mono inputs. On top of that are 20 built-in chorus, delay and reverb effects to breathe life into the mix. Apply these to any channel using two dedicated EFX busses. 

Recall up to nine customisable presets of EQ settings, pans and faders. You never have to complain about forgetting the perfect mix ever again. Complete your mix with the L-20 or simply save and upload tracks to a DAW at any time. 

Brilliant for FOH and musicians 

Zoom has kept the performer in mind when creating the LiveTrak L-20. The six monitor outputs can each have their own custom mix and effects for easy listening through either headphones or stage monitors. A seventh output runs to front of house so they can oversee the bigger picture, while still adjust for individuals on the fly.

A built-in metronome has a dedicated tempo button for tight playing. The handy slate mic lets you record comments or talk-back so you can put down ideas for later use. Zoom have designed an intuitive layout with a full LCD screen to navigate projects and settings.   

Wireless control

Go wireless with the iOS mobile app! Offering almost all onboard functions, use the dynamic interface to control the mix from anywhere in the room. Get faders, EQ EFX and more with the flick of a finger.
