Zoom LiveTrak L12next Overview

Zoom is pleased to announce the LiveTrak L12next 12-channel digital mixer / 14-track multitrack recorder. The L12next combines the power of a digital mixer with analog-style operation. With its new OLED screen, upgraded ultra low noise preamps, three multifunction encoder knobs per channel for easy access to gain, compression, lowcut, High/Mid/Low EQ, pan, sends, and a talkback mic, the L12next puts you in total control. 
The L12next stores up to 10 scene memories and the new Fader Position button lets you quickly view saved fader positions when recalling scenes. With five independent Monitor Outs, every musician can have a personal mix whether he/she is using headphones or stage monitors thanks to its switchable outputs.
The L12next also captures up to 14 tracks at 24-bit/96 kHz, plus a stereo mix in 32-bit float, to an internal SD card while the new master compressor adds warm natural compression to the final mix. You can also use it as a 14-in/4-out USB audio interface simultaneously. With wireless control via the L12next control app, DAW controller functionality, overdub mode, and auto punch in/out, the L12next is perfect for creators, performers, and engineers who need flexibility and precision on stage, in the studio, or in the rehearsal room.
The LiveTrak L12next will ship in Q1 2026.
