Zoom L-12 livetrack ~ overdubbing?

[kr236rk]

Hi,

Have the Zoom L-12 'Livetrack' digital recorder.

I can record well on one channel.

The overdub button will not illuminate - so I can't overdub.

Any advice please?

Thanks

Sorted - there are three recording resolution values, only two of them allow EFX and overdub - that is very poorly presented in the manual. Sorted.

Missing MIDI sync seems to be the common flaw in all modern offerings

The generic sync solution is to record SMPTE code as audio on a track, and then have other devices sync from that. You need to be able the route the sync track to a separate output (I don't know how what the LiveTrak has to offer there, but on the otherwise popular Zoom R16 this is not possible at all) and you'll need an external device or two to generate and read the SMPTE code, and to convert it to MIDI clock which is what most synths use.
