Allen & Heath ZED-16FX Multipurpose USB Mixer w/ FX for Live Sound and Recording
ZED-16FX
is ideal for groups who need to travel light. It gives musicians,
venues and hire companies access to 10 full mono channels, 3 stereo
channels and a high quality FX unit in a compact, rack mountable format.
Configurable USB audio in/out makes it easy to capture stereo
recordings
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
ZED-16FX
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
ZED-16FX
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.
