Zoom LiveTrak L12next 12-Channel Digital Mixer

Built as the next evolution of Zoom’s popular LiveTrak series, the LiveTrak L12next unifies a 14-track recorder, 14-in/4-out audio interface and professional digital mixer into one portable creative hub. Major upgrades include +70dB low-noise preamps, expanded overdub and punch-in recording, five independent monitor mixes and full wireless iPad control. Designed for bands, podcast creators, livestreamers and producers, the L12next delivers a complete recording and mixing workflow without relying on a computer.

Studio Power in a Portable Digital Mixer

The L12next provides studio-grade flexibility with 14-track, 24-bit/96kHz recording to SD card or directly to a computer. Dual-capture capability enables simultaneous SD + USB recording for safety backups or hybrid setups. A sharp OLED display streamlines navigation, and overdub mode with auto punch in/out supports precise layering and correction. With 10 scene recall slots, you can instantly load full mixer states for repeatable live and studio configurations.

Premium Preamps and Hands-On Channel Control

Zoom’s redesigned preamps deliver +70dB of clean gain with –128dBu EIN for detail-rich recording using dynamic, condenser or DI instruments. Each channel offers three multifunction encoders providing direct access to gain, EQ, compression, sends and pan—removing menu diving from the workflow. LED feedback on each encoder ensures consistent recall, giving the immediacy of an analog board with the precision of digital control.

Independent Monitoring and Flexible Connectivity

Five independent monitor outputs let musicians build personalized headphone or stage mixes, while an engineer’s output with talkback keeps communication fast and clear. Mixer control expands via wireless iPad connection, and the L12next doubles as a 14-in/4-out USB audio interface for DAW recording, soft synths, streaming and multichannel podcast production. Optional accessories—including a Bluetooth adapter, footswitch and rackmount kit—extend its role in mobile or installed rigs.

Designed for Modern Production Workflows

The L12next streamlines every stage of production by combining recording, mixing, monitoring and streaming tools into a single device built for today’s fast-moving creative environments. With intuitive controls, professional-grade preamps and high-resolution capture, it supports everything from rehearsal recording to broadcast-ready delivery. Built with Zoom’s signature clarity and durability, the LiveTrak L12next stands as a versatile hub for studios, stages and creator setups that demand reliable performance.
