Zoom LiveTrak L-8 Portable 8-Channel Digital Mixer and Multitrack Recorder

POWER TO THE PODCAST

Podcast creators are a special breed. They require a unique set of audio features, along with the flexibility of a proper mixing console. The LiveTrak L-8 combines Zoom’s famous audio performance with features made for podcasters.

SOUND PAD MAGIC

Press a button to play intros, outros, jingles, ads, and sound effects. With 6 easily-assignable Sound Pads, the right sound is at your fingertips.

FIRST-TIME CALLER, LONG-TIME LISTENER

Remote interviews are a snap with the L-8; connect your phone via the provided TRRS cable. The Mix-Minus function automatically prevents echo and feedback to and from the caller. Or use the USB connection to route audio from Skype, Facetime, Hangouts, Slack, and more.

FREEDOM OF SPEECH

Zoom’s preamps are famous for a good reason: they’re transparent, robust, and ultra-reliable. The L-8 features six independent Zoom preamps, built to handle anything from a whisper to a raucous debate.

A TRACK FOR EVERYONE

The pros know that when you record everyone on their own separate track it just sounds better and provides more flexibility in the edit. The L-8 records separate tracks directly to your SD card, enabling you to edit them later.

Tips for protecting your children online

In today's digital age, ensuring your children's safety while they browse the internet is paramount. As they explore the vast online world through smartphones, gaming consoles, laptops, and other devices, it's essential to implement measures to shield them from potentially harmful content and interactions. Here are some tips to help you safeguard your children online:

1. Communication is Key

Open and ongoing communication with your children about online safety is crucial. Discuss the potential dangers they may encounter online, such as pornography, cyberbullying, and violent content. Encourage them to come to you with any concerns or questions they may have.

2. Set Clear Boundaries

Establish clear rules and boundaries regarding internet usage. Define appropriate time limits for browsing and specify which websites and apps are off-limits. Make sure your children understand the consequences of violating these rules. You can also restrict some of these apps or online content utilising device level parental controls explained below.

3. Utilise Parental Controls

Take advantage of the parental control features available on devices and internet browsers. These controls allow you to block access to specific websites, set age-appropriate content filters, and monitor your children's online activities. Familiarise yourself with the parental control options on smartphones, gaming consoles, and laptops to effectively manage your children's online experiences.

4. Educate Yourself

Stay informed about the latest trends and technologies related to online safety. Familiarise yourself with popular social media platforms, gaming communities, and messaging apps that your children may use, including the functions they provide. This knowledge will help you understand the potential risks and take appropriate action to protect your children.

5. Monitor Their Online Activities

Regularly monitor your children's online activities to ensure they are adhering to the rules and staying safe. Keep an eye on their browsing history, social media interactions, and messaging apps. Be vigilant for any signs of cyberbullying or exposure to inappropriate content.

6. Encourage Safe Online Behavior

Teach your children about the importance of practicing safe online behavior. Remind them never to share personal information, such as their full name, address, or phone number, with strangers online. Encourage them to think critically about the content they encounter and to report anything that makes them feel uncomfortable or unsafe.

7. Lead by Example

Be a positive role model for your children by demonstrating responsible and respectful online behavior yourself. Show them how to navigate the internet safely and responsibly, and emphasize the importance of treating others with kindness and empathy online.

8. Reporting abuse, making complaints and finding more information

For additional resources and guidance on online safety, visit the Australian e-Safety Commissioner's website at www.esafety.gov.au. Here, you'll find a wealth of information, including tips for parents, educational resources for children, and tools for reporting online abuse and harassment.

You can also report abuse through the website’s online form.

By following these tips and utilising available resources, you can help keep your children safe from pornography, cyberbullying, violent content, and other unsafe material while they navigate the internet. Remember, proactive measures and open communication are key to fostering a safe and positive online environment for your family.
