With six mic preamps, four independent headphone outputs, a phone tap for call-in interviews, and six sound pads, the LiveTrak L-8 can easily handle roundtable podcasts or tracking multiple musicians.

Just add microphones (dynamic or condenser), hook up headphones, and get ready to produce quality content in no time.
