pakige! pakige!
it seems according to zoom the only years that exist are 2025-2099
firmware is already the latest version. thats good because otherwise id have to find a microsd card
im guessing Helvum devs never tried a device with more than 10 channels 😏
it works 🔥🔥
anyway the highly exciting job that awaits this thing for now is just mixing together sound from my various desktop computers
problem is that the current mixer outputs via xlr so i need to redo cabling again uuuuohguhjh

my only complaint so far is that there isnt a "direct usb output" mode. in order to hear the usb output channels, you have to switch channel 7 and/or 8 into usb mode, which disables the analog inputs on those channels

i guess it kinda makes sense for a device that is primarily a mixer rather than an audio interface but still

some people said the sd card is hard to remove on these but it seems fine to me
most important feature
the little "32bit Float" graphic seems to be a sticker, unlike all the other labels which are printed on. curious
my favorite thing about zoom devices is the little "Goodbye! See you!" message that pops up when you power them off
space appears
i should print some dust covers for the open jacks
this was a fantastic idea, i shouldve done it a long time ago
since i found barely any info about using this device with linux, i should write a blog post just affirming that its fine
Zoom L6max on Linux

tl;dr: it works fine.

ok i have another complaint. the L6max *only* runs at 48000 Hz. i generally prefer to use 44100 so this is a bit annoying
@ahihi bleh, been seeing that more recently and it annoys me too. y’all are making pro equipment, you can put a second oscillator in there, i believe in you!
@brhfl it could also be that they pulled the fx algorithms from some of their pedals and didnt want to spend developer time on making them sample rate invariant 😔
@ahihi you might be on to something… i realized i still had the manual up for the h5studio and that ~does~ do 44.1/88.2
