The new kid on the block: Zoom LiveTrak L6

[miuzik]

Hi linux musicians. I want to share with you the hot new of the month: the Zoom LiveTrak L6. This mixer is a little beast, the specs are awesome. It can be audio interface, midi controller for DAW, mixer and recorder (multi-track recorder!). This tiny mixer has eurorack compatibility. Technically it is class compliant because you can use it in iOS, PC and Android (Linux is not mentioned because Zoom don't support linux but the gear can run over linux, well I hope it).

The big brother (L8) this mixer was reviewed in this forum, but it has a warning (please read the original post).

I really want to have news about the performance this mixer/interface over linux, if it works well I considered a serious option for linux home studio.

According to product's manual it has two USB-C ports, one for powering and one for audio interface (which can be also used for powering). If powering through audio interface connection does not work under Linux because of Zoom not caring about Linux drivers it still shouldn't be an issue since it can be powered by the dedicated port.

There's no display on it so you cannot overdub if I'm not mistaken. Or maybe only 6 tracks... As a standalone recorder it's a bit limited if you ask me.
