Allen & Heath - ZED-10FX
Multipurpose Mixing Desk
Multipurpose Mixer For Live Sound RecordingThe Allen & Heath ZED-10FX is an amazing little desk for small band mixing. It is ultra portable for carrying to the gig, and can be used for recording live or in the studio. It comes with configurable USB audio in/out making it easy to capture stereo recordings.
Guitars can be plugged in directly to the mixer using the specially designed high-impedance inputs, while the mixer has two stereo inputs for MP3/CD players or keyboards. Equipped with professional XLR stereo outputs and a flexible monitoring section with headphone and speaker feed outputs. Allen & Heath added a set of fabulous effects to give shimmering reverbs and enhance your sound and features a responsive 3-band, swept mid frequency EQ design which utilises MusiQ, with optimised slope (or Q factor) for equalising individual instruments.
Amazing Features
• 4 mic/line inputs, 2 with Class A FET high impedance inputs
• 2 stereo sources with MP3 player compatibility
• Responsive 3-band, swept mid EQ with MusiQ
• Neutrik mic XLR and 1/4 inch jacks
• 1 pre-fade Aux send and 1 FX send
• 3 band EQ with MusiQ
USB Audio Flexibility
Simple TransferEasily transferring audio to and from a computer is now a common requirement for live sound and music production, so this has been implemented on the ZED-10FX and is super-flexible and simple!
You no longer need to fiddle around the back of your PC to get to the soundcard inputs, only to find that the levels are all wrong and messy. Just plug in a USB lead to your ZED, select the USB routing on the mixer and the device on your computer and that’s it! CD quality audio to and from your PC or Mac.
Enhance Your Sound
ZED-FXZED-10FX has an essential range of 16 time-delay effects, created for small groups who don’t want to carry around an effects unit with their gear but who still want great quality FX at their gigs and on their recordings. DSP engineers worked hard crafting and refining stunning reverb algorithms to enhance every performance.
These effects are available nowhere else at this price point, this quality and integration is only available from the ZED-FX. ZED effects are easily cto control using 3 buttons with 9 display LEDs. The ideal delay time can be quickly tapped-in, or the perfect amount of reverb on the lead vocal can be dialled-in.
There is one-stop navigation and editing and is just as easy as using effects pedals. To tweak effects parameters, the TAP button is held down and the up/down buttons pressed to adjust the specific parameter for that effect, for example, the decay length on PLATE, or the depth on CHORUS.
Guitar Friendly
GUITAR DIZED-10FX’s pre-amps are similar in design to the MixWizard range of mixers, but with a twist! Inputs 3 & 4 have a high impedance jack input so they can take either a normal line level or a low level input from a guitar pickup.
These newly designed inputs have been created with the aim of replicating the sound of a classic guitar or instrument tube pre-amp in a combo or head amp.
An extremely high input impedance ensures loading on pick-ups is minimal and a Class A FET (field effect transistor) circuit powered from 48V is used to give the valve-like gain stage. A gain “Boost” switch associated with the guitar inputs is included which boosts gain by 26dB to cater for instruments with very low level outputs and the overdrive characteristics of the guitar inputs are very similar to a valve (tube) circuit, being asymmetric and soft. All this makes for an impressively natural sound to be reproduced from the instrument, full of warmth and character.
