Multitracker is a live player that allows you to play multiple audio files and midi files comfortably and flexibly with the help of playlists. If a USB audio interface is connected to the iPad, the audio tracks (stems) of a song can be routed to any of the outputs of the interface. At the same time, the headphone output can also be used as an additional routing destination, so that you have two additional channels available. To play midi songs, Multitracker provides a midi player that allows each MIDI track to be assigned to any existing Midi device (whether via USB or iPad instrument such as Sound Canvas). Of course a midi song can be played in sync with audio tracks. If necessary, a metronome with 9 different click sounds and freely selectable time signature can be added to your song or be played alone. It has never been easier to play multitrack and midi songs on stage!

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.
