Allen & Heath ZED60-14FX Mixer
Live or in the studio, ZED60-14FX is a compact, portable mixer that is ideal for small bands. This mixer is a guitarist’s dream. Two of the 8 mono channels have high impedance jack inputs that can take a normal line level or a low-level input from a guitar pickup, so guitars can be plugged straight into the mixer without the need for DI boxes. These inputs have been crafted to recreate the sound of a classic tube preamp in a combo or head amp for incredible definition and warmth. Two stereo inputs are provided for MP3/CD players or keyboards.
ZED60-14FX comes with configurable USB audio in/out, making it easy to capture a stereo recording at the gig or in the studio. The mixer is equipped with professional XLR main stereo outputs, a flexible monitoring section with headphone and speaker feed outputs, and 16 stunning FX. Most important of all, ZED60-14FX lives up to the audio and build quality standards that have made Allen & Heath one of the most trusted names in professional audio for more than 40 years.
The ZED60-14FX Live and Studio Mixer from Allen & Heath is a 10-channel mixer with 16 built-in effects that are designed for an array of live and studio applications. Channels 1 through 6 have Neutrik XLR connectors for mic level signals, and 1/4″ TRS inputs for balanced or unbalanced line-level signals. Channels 7 and 8 also have Neutrik XLRs, but feature Class A FET Hi-Z instrument-level inputs for direct connection of electric guitars and basses. Additionally, channels 1 through 8 are all equipped with 3-band EQ and 48V phantom power.
Designed with versatility in mind, the ZED60-14FX’s master section is equipped with balanced XLR left and right main outputs with 1/4″ inserts on each channel. These inserts can be useful for inserting outboard gear such as EQs or limiters at the end of your signal chain before the master mix is output to your speakers. Also, there is a balanced 1/4″ aux output for connecting additional sound reinforcement components such as a powered stage monitor, and an FX bus out that can be used to send the FX mix to additional gear such as an external effects unit. While you can connect an external effects unit via the FX bus out jack, the mixer also features sixteen built-in digital effects that include multiple delays, reverbs, a doubler, flanger, and chorus. The DSP engine, which uses the same effects algorithms as Allen & Heath’s flagship digital consoles, is designed for low-noise and low-distortion signal processing.
Specifications
All 10 channels can be routed to a “record” buss that can be output to a computer running DAW software via the USB port or routed into a hardware recording device via the RCA record out jacks.
The mixer also features two stereo inputs (ST1 & ST2) that have 1/4″ TS and RCA jacks (ST1 only) for connecting line-level outputs from devices such as keyboards, samplers, or iPods.
Each channel also features a “listen” button, that when engaged takes the corresponding signal off the master and recording busses and sends it to the headphone buss.
This can be useful in a live recording scenario for making discrete EQ adjustments to a channel before adding it to the master or record busses.
Each of the stereo channels features a 2-band EQ.
