Questions & Answers

Is there Bluetooth audio (in or out) on the device?

The device seems to lack Bluetooth connectivity, either inward or outward.

Is it possible to record and stream at the same time with this?

It seems to me that you can stream, although I don't have any experience with it. In addition to recording live, I sing and play with my PA system at the same time. Along with the Master Output, L-outputs are also available Monitor outputs can be individually set for each of the six outputs on the 20. I desired to be able to record my band video and audio simultaneously with two singers, three instruments, and my drum machine on my L-80 with my Sony video cam and record my drum machine via my L-80 with my Sony video cam Having imported my camera's video and audio tracks to my Vegas Video System computer, I played them through the program. My SD card was out of my L-shaped case when I was done As soon as I put it in my Vegas Video computer, I could see all of my L-frames A total of 20 tracks. There were wav files numbered track_1, track_2, etc. There was no problem importing them or synchronizing them. There is nothing I like better than this.

The EQ has a pre / post fader, does it not?

All of the above is in this book.

Can you tell me if the channels on this board are controlled by motorized sliders. Is it easy for you to save and re-save What is a preset?

There are no motorized faders on this board. Since I do not use scene presets, I do not know what they are like. main reason I bought this board was to expand my monitor outputs to more than four. It would be nice if it had the EQ presets found on the Mackie DL-1608.

The mixer is a great value for the price
5/5

It's the first thing I've bought that I feel so confident in recommending to other people in a long time. I have the good fortune of being able to upgrade my equipment to suit the 21st century due to my home studio being destroyed during hurricane Mike. My preference was something that allowed me to monitor at least five different mixes independently and that had the ability to record as well. During the last year, I had to replace my Yamaha AW16 digital recorder and Mackie VLZ mixer, as well as my Behringer headphone amplifier. Since the band is all electronic now, and we have a brand new electronic drum kit, I wanted something similar to the now defunct Jamhub for silent rehearsals. There are no trees or fences anymore, so it is now possible to hear everything that goes on around Zoom products are some of my favorites I have a handheld recorder, USB interface, and bass pedal. The sound quality of this mixer is the same as the other mixers. It's my day job to be the house soundman for a small 450 seat movie It would be easy for me to use this mixer for The plays, the dance groups, the speakers, even the smaller music groups. Having our own mix and being able to record like this is an invaluable tool for my band. It is recommended that you add a dual 31 band EQ and/or a speaker management rack unit inline for your main outputs if you intend to use this for live gigs as it does not come with built-in EQ, feedback destroyer, limiting, or gates. Reply to this message if you wish In monitor mixes, it can EQ each channel but it does not have a parametric eq, which would enable it to squash feedback. My mixer isn't ready for the road, but I won't be taking it anywhere. It would be great if you could control your iPad with an Android tablet but hopefully they will update it in the future. In recent years, I have made some excellent gear purchases.

The manufacturer did not take into consideration the production of live music
3/5

Channel EQ is located in the Global section of the console. A channel's EQ will affect the monitor mix and vice versa if you do it in the mains. A mix console of this size, with so many options, would be incomplete without at least one EQ/pre fader A tech support representative could care less about anything and knows nothing about anything. I'm sending you back a reply. It's too bad because this would have been perfect, but, when FOH is mixing, that also affects the monitor mix, and that's just asking for trouble.

A perfect match in every aspect
5/5

The L-word stuck out in my mind There is no better console than the 20. Throughout my 30 years of recording and playing shows, I have developed a love for sound. As a recording engineer, I have used Roland VS series, Korgs, and Tascams. Just about any brand can be used in a live situation. As of now, I use cubase as my DAW. There's a blast from the past with this livetrak, which is well-equipped with features of the present. I liked how easy it was to use, but the main point is the ease of learning. There is one thing I would like to warn anyone who has come from multitracking you cannot bounce tracks, so if you get the lame, that's the end of your session With 8 tracks, you'll get eight It is why I went with the L-style 12 12 tracks, etc. Then I mix everything on cubase. I record everything on the console and mix it on cubase. On the other hand, everything can be handled on the L- With a single press of the button, even matter is mixed. There is no idea that Zoom did not come up with ahead of time. Kudos to Zoom for improving my life.

This works well both as a live mixer and as a In case you need a board that can mix a live show and record it in multiple formats Keeping track at the same time, this is your board
5/5

It was an absolute pleasure to hear the amps, the recording was flawless, and the live sound was outstanding.

This mixer is great
5/5

This is what we use in our jam band, and it is We discarded the Xair 18 mixer (which worked as a DAW, but needed to be connected to a PC to record), adding another failure point to the loop. We replaced it with the Zoom L-57 mixer. As a result, tracks can now be recorded to an SD card, and a master mix can be generated for listeners to grab and enjoy on the move. The overdub and the on-the-fly Despite the fact that the bluetooth range isn't as good as some, board remixing is one of the best features.

All the best in one place
5/5

DJ, 20 years old An interface for recording tracks, as well as a track recorder. Various tasks in our home studio require the three items and they are great for doing so. My favorite aspect of the app is the immediate access to recording without having to set up anything or deal with software to write songs. You can copy, overdub, and mix your music on a The quality of sound is acceptable for the most part. I love it!.

There is a lot of noise
3/5

There is a lot of noise coming from this unit. Between channels, there will be bleeding. I even have to turn it all the way down in my PA to hear it. The sound of my guitar when plugged into other equipment is never audible, but plugged into this mixer is a constant 60-cycle Having returned home.
