■Portable 8-Channel
From rock bands to singer-songwriters, the L-8 is the ideal live mixer and recorder for musicians seeking a big sound even with a small group.

■Clear & Loud
Equipped with six high-performance mic preamps with phantom power, a low noise floor, and a maximum input gain of +54dB. Hi-Z inputs allow direct connection of guitars and basses, and also supports line-level and USB inputs. Adjust the tone and resonance with the EQ and built-in effects on each channel.

■Multitrack Recording
Record up to 10 multitracks and a stereo master track (L/R) directly to an SD card at up to 24-bit/96kHz*. Punch-ins and overdubbing are easy, and you can transfer recorded data to a computer and finish it in a DAW.
*Effects, EQ, overdubbing, and audio interface functions are unavailable when operating at 96kHz.

■Play Anywhere
Even without a power outlet, the L-8 can run for approximately two and a half hours on four AA alkaline batteries. Commercially available USB mobile batteries can also be used. Enjoy high-quality recording and mixing anytime, anywhere.

■Uncompromising Monitor Mix
The L-8 can create three monitor mixes, allowing you to monitor with a comfortable balance not only during recording but also during live performances.

■USB Audio Interface
Also functions as a 12-in/4-out USB audio interface. You can record audio from the L-8 directly into your DAW, or input backing tracks from your computer via USB.
The L-8 supports class-compliant mode and can also connect to iOS devices. An Apple Lightning USB Camera Adapter is required (sold separately).

■Podcasting
The LiveTrak L-8 is a live mixer designed for podcasters, delivering not only the high-quality sound podcast creators demand, but also the flexibility to incorporate background music, jingles, and call-in guests.

■Sound Pads
Six sound pads allow you to play intros, outros, jingles, commercials, sound effects, and more with the touch of a button. Easily assign sounds and instantly play them at any time.

■Inviting Phone Guests
Inviting phone guests to join a conversation is easy. Simply connect your smartphone to the L-8 with the included TRRS cable. The mix-minus function prevents feedback, which is when the caller's voice is returned to the caller. The USB audio function allows guests to join using calling apps like Skype, FaceTime, Hangouts, and Slack.

■Speak Freely
The LiveTrak series microphone preamps provide powerful amplification while maintaining clear sound quality, and boast ample dynamic range. The L-8 is equipped with six preamps, allowing for clear recording of a wide range of voices, from quiet speech to heated debate.

■One Track per Person
By recording each person's voice separately on a separate track, you can adjust the volume and sound quality later. The L-8 allows for multi-recording of up to eight tracks on an SD card, making it easy to balance the recordings afterward.
