The Mixer for Creators!
Despite its extremely compact and portable size, the Zoom LiveTrak L-8 lets you mix, monitor, and record professional-sounding podcasts and music performances more easily than ever before.
All Power to the Podcasters
Podcasters are a very special clientele. They need selected audio functions but also the flexibility of a real mixing console. The LiveTrak L-8 combines Zoom's typically high audio quality with functionality optimized for podcasters.
Magic Sound Pads
With a single button press, you can trigger intros, outros, jingles, teasers, and sound effects. Thanks to the 6 easily configurable sound pads, you can control the perfect sound effects with fingertip precision.
Effortless Integration of External Callers
Interviews with external callers are a breeze with the L-8: simply connect your phone using the included TRRS cable. The mix-minus function easily prevents bidirectional feedback that can occur during communication with the caller. Or route audio signals from Skype, FaceTime, Hangouts, Slack, and more directly via the USB interface.
The Power of Free Speech
Zoom’s preamps are famous for good reasons: they sound transparent, are very powerful, and absolutely reliable. The L-8 integrates six separate Zoom preamps, giving you full control over every signal from a whisper to loud debates.
One Track – For Everyone
Professionals know it sounds better and offers more flexibility in post-production when you record each source on its own track. The L-8 records each track individually onto the SD card, so you can easily edit them later.
Hear Yourself.
If you can’t hear yourself, how can you make your point? The L-8 features four headphone outputs so every participant can hear exactly what’s going on at any time.
On Air Anywhere
The Zoom LiveTrak L-8 can run up to 1.5 hours on just four AA batteries or a portable USB power bank, so you can podcast anywhere.
Record Twice – In One Go
When used as an audio interface, the L-8 can simultaneously record full episodes on your computer and an SD card. Plus, you can live stream during recording. (The L-8 is class-compliant, allowing connection to iOS devices. Apple Lightning to USB Camera Adapter required.)
Save Settings – Save Time
Once you’ve created your mix... you should save it! The L-8 lets you save up to 7 “scenes” that you can store and recall at the push of a button.
The Console for Musicians
Compact Size. Huge Sound.
The L-8 is the ideal mixer for musicians from singer/songwriters to small bands who want to impress with big sound despite a small lineup.
Always Loud and Clear
The L-8 features six powerful preamps, each with switchable phantom power, high dynamic range (-121 dBU EIN), and a maximum input gain of +54 dB. Additionally, two inputs each offer high-impedance Hi-Z, line, and USB connections. You can shape each channel with an EQ and internal effects.
True Multitrack Recording
With the L-8, you can record up to 10 separate tracks plus a stereo mix at up to 24-bit/96 kHz* resolution directly to an SD card. Punch-in/out and overdub functions are available for editing, and you can transfer recordings to your preferred DAW for further post-production. (At 96 kHz operation, EQ, overdub, and audio interface mode are not available.)
Always On Air – Even On The Go
No power outlet? No problem. Power your mixer for up to 1.5 hours with just four AA batteries. Alternatively, use a USB power bank: thanks to the L-8’s unique USB connection, you don’t have to worry about accidental disconnections.
Individual Monitor Mixes
With this mixer, compromises in monitoring are a thing of the past. The L-8 allows up to three individual monitor mixes so you can hear exactly what you want anywhere on stage.
High-Quality Audio Interface
The L-8 can also be used as an audio interface with 12 inputs and 4 outputs. Record directly in your preferred DAW or play backing tracks via USB from your computer. (The L-8 is class-compliant, allowing connection to iOS devices. An Apple Lightning to USB Camera Adapter is required.)

However, there are some limitations when operating. Unfortunately, there is only one USB port. I can either connect my USB microphone or the Zoom to the computer.
On the positive side, a cell phone can be plugged in for phone interviews with no problem. However, it doesn't work for landline phones. That's a shame, because the sound quality is often better on landlines.
I was annoyed by the fact that the supplied quick start guide was not enough for me to start recording. I then printed out the detailed user manual. A lot of things are just not self-explanatory.
Despite everything, it is a good device that will be used often with me.

I am very satisfied with the mixer, especially because you can quickly adjust what without having to handle pad or mobile phone.
The sound is very good also the EQ and the effects are practical. I was able to start right away, without a manual, because it can be operated almost like an analog mixer.
I can highly recommend the device!

A little has helped me the experience with the other Zoom devices, but overall you are blown away by the possibilities of the L8.
The device is fantastic from its possibilities.
The only criticism is the lack of a paper manual and possibly a DVD with training videos.
Of course, these are made available on the Internet, but you still miss the paper manual when setting up and operating the device.
Conclusion: A great addition to my podcast equipment park with an unbeatable price / performance ratio.
