Mar 25, 2008 8:41 PM
Allen & Heath's ZED-24
small format, USB-equipped mixer for live performance, recording, and
production is now available.
The new ZED-24 stereo
mixer provides 23 independent sources to the mix, 10 independent outputs, four
aux sends (two pre- and two post-fade), a USB send and return (for PC or Mac
recording, playback and effects), a unique dual stereo input capability and
advanced monitoring facilities. Under the hood, the ZED-24 features all
vertically mounted PCB boards and rotary controls that are nutted down to the
chassis from the top.
Sixteen mono channel
strips are complemented by four stereo channels, each with a main stereo input
on jack sockets, and with the ability to take additional stereo inputs from
phono sockets or from the USB audio input, enabling the engineer to control and
route any source. ZED-24 features a 3-band swept-mid EQ, with an optimized
slope for equalizing individual instruments. The ZED-24 also features the new
DuoPre pre-amps, which use a two-stage design with carefully controlled amounts
of gain in each stage, which is said to offer the user lots of headroom.
Cakewalk's Sonar LE music
production software is bundled with the mixer; find out more at
