Customers praised this multitrack mixer for "excellent sound quality" and versatile recording capabilities. It functions as both a mixing console and audio interface, recording WAV files for post-production. Shoppers highlighted 6 monitor outputs and quality preamps. Some noted the lack of included manual and plastic construction, though most found it "easy to use."

Device intended for recording live groups. For my part, used as a mixer in repeaters allowing me to record each take with top quality.
The preamps are good, much better I think than those of its predecessor zoom hd16 that I already had.
The +:
- easy to use for those who are used to using a mixer
- preamp quality
- number of entrances and exits. So comfy!
- lightweight and therefore easily transportable for recording live sound.
- very portable recording without having to go through a computer. (which is still possible)
The least:
- a bit fragile in terms of appearance (very plastic)
- price may be a bit expensive, but at the same time considering how much the beast can do... Not many competitors with this number of entries that can be recorded simultaneously at a non-pro budget anyway!
To see in use, but I am very happy with it for now!Automatically translated

Very nice mixer.
A bit expensive certainly (and again I have a friend who bought it 1200€ a few months before me, now it is 870€) but it makes a Mix table + Multitrack sound card.
It records in Multitrack (wav file) and not a simple MP3 stereo file So you can rework your mix in Cubase or other ProTools... (you can even record directly in your favorite DAW because this table is also a 44.1kHz 48kHz 96kHz USB Multitrack sound card)
Lots of possibilities (Save 9 group scenes, 6 return or headphone outputs etc...)
It's a very good Mix table, it only needs one thing... The motorization of the knobs that's all... maybe for a future L25 or L30...?
If I had to do my purchase again, I would do it again without worriesAutomatically translated

I have the use of it, a great help for our group projects, it will allow us to correct our lives, whether in rehearsal or in concert, because we will have real-time support and the inspirations captured on the spot can be developed in the studio at home (home-studio).
