ZED60-14FX 8-Mic/Line 2 Stereo i/p Console with 60mm Faders

"Multipurpose Mixer with FX for Live Sound and Recording."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.Product Features

USB Audio Flexibility: Getting audio to and from a computer easily is now a common requirement for live sound and music production. The way this has been implemented on ZED is super-flexible and super-easy!

No longer do you 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 noisy. 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. Switches and connection through jack socket terminals provide different send/return configurations.

MusiQ: ZED60-14FX features a responsive 3-band, swept mid frequency EQ design which utilises MusiQ – with optimised slope (or Q factor) for equalising individual instruments.

ZED-FX: ZED60-14FX has an essential selection of 16 time-delay effects, designed 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.

Our DSP engineers worked hard, crafting and refining beautiful 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 controlled using 3 buttons with 9 display LEDs. For example, 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 – in fact, it’s just as easy as using effects pedals. To alter 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 DI: ZED60-14FX’s pre-amps are similar in design to our MixWizard range of mixers, but with a twist! Inputs 7 & 8 have a high impedance jack input capable of taking either a normal line level or a low level input from a guitar pickup.

These newly designed inputs have been crafted 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 employed to give the valve-like gain stage.

There is a gain “Boost” switch associated with the guitar inputs 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 a wonderfully natural sound to be reproduced from the instrument, full of warmth and character. 8 mic/line inputs, 2 with Class A FET high impedance 60mm professional quality faders Responsive 3-band, swept mid EQ with MusiQ Configurable USB stereo audio in/out 1 pre-fade Aux send 1 FX send 2 stereo inputs Separate 2-track record outputs 16 Internal Effects XLR main stereo outputs with inserts Comprehensive monitoring 48V microphone phantom power DI level switching with Gain Boost Neutrik XLRs and 1/4 inch jacks Product SpecificationsGeneral Input Mono channel (XLR) Input -10 to –60dBu for nominal (+11dBu in max) Mono channel Line Input (Jack socket) +10 to –40dBu (+31dBu maximum) Stereo Input (Jack or phono sockets) 0dBu nominal (control = Off to +15dB)
