L-20 Control is an app that enables wireless control of the ZOOM LIVETRAK L-20/L-20R. If a BTA-1* or other wireless adapter (sold separately) for ZOOM products is connected to an L-20/L-20R, an iPad with this app can be used as a remote controller for the L-20/L-20R. *With a BTA-1, transmission up to 10 m is possible when used indoors without obstacles. L-20 Control can be used at a distance from the L-20/L-20R. For example, it can be use to mix while listening from a seat in the audience, or an iPad with the app can be provided to a performer to use for monitor mixing while the engineer uses the L-20 itself to mix for the main speakers. Features ・Simple intuitive user interface just like the L-20 ・15-band stereo graphic equalizer control ・All level meters shown simultaneously ・Name and color settings for every channel
It’s ok but could easily be way better
There is absolutely no reason why this shouldn’t be compatible with an iPhone. Every competitor is and you already have the infrastructure from an iPad app. The biggest issue with this is the need for an ipad. Of the 5 members of my band, we only have one iPad which means we take turns dialing it in instead of everyone at once. If the iPad breaks or dies, we are screwed. Would probably be 4 stars with an iPhone/Android app.
Great start! We need compression, gate & limiters
Lao another thing would make this worth buying Bluetooth receiver is the ability to export, audio files, MP3 airwaves, and send Stem files of all the tracks. That could put this device on top of the competition.
Zoom L20
Need to be able to save file.
Would be nice if it wasn’t so laggy
Also would be nice if my band mates could minimize the app to look at their music sheets and come back to this app and not be disconnected.
Would be great if you could control gain, compression, and monitor eq straight from the app
Tittle says it all add those updates and I’ll upgrade my review
App crashing under iOS 16/16.1
Things have been great * * * * * this past year but now, after iOS 16 upgrade on my iPad Pro, this app crashes multiple times mid-session. It’s making my L-20R unusable. Please fix this Zoom so I can get back to work!
Need iPhone app and more
This needs an iPhone app for a host of reasons. If battery runs out on ipad then at least I’d have a back up with my phone or someone else’s phone. Since I’m only running a few channels most of the time I really don’t need a big screen to manage everything. In addition to having the virtual knobs to change the EQ it would be really nice to be able to add frequency points on the EQ curve to pinpoint the exact frequency I want to change. The ability to select which effects I want for each effect channel would be great. There are two effects I like but they are both in the same effect slot so I can’t use them both at the same time. I love being able to label all the tracks however it would be nice to be able to clear all labels at once rather than one at a time to reset them. Faders are really touchy. When I grab a fader to move up or down in volume the fader jumps to my finger right away sometimes causing the volume to get loud before I can change it. Would be great if the fader didn’t move upon touching it and only move when I actually slide my finger. There is a lot of good stuff here but I don’t think there has been an update to this app in a over a year. Doesn’t make me feel confident that anything is going to get any better which is a shame. I love the portability of this unit and the recordings sound really good and have been a great benefit.
* Released as version compatible with iPadOS 16.1.
