Allen & Heath 11 ZED-10FX User Guide
EQ:
The ZED-10FX and ZED-10 mixers are equipped with a 3-band equaliser circuit on each
mono input, with swept mid frequency section, and a 2-band EQ on the stereo channels. The
frequency and response of each has been carefully chosen to give the maximum performance
when using the EQ on a variety of sources.
Effects Processor:
Zed 10FX has a professional quality effects processor built in which uses our own effects
algorithms developed by our talented engineering staff at Allen & Heath. The effects range
from classic reverbs, cascaded delay plus reverbs to shimmering flanger & chorus effects. The
different effects types are selected with a simple up/down button interface and the tempo of
the delay settings can be set using the TAP button. Holding the TAP button allows the pa-
rameters of the effects to be adjusted. The audio signal to the DSP is converted using 24 bit
high dynamic range converters running at 48kHz sample rate, ensuring low noise, low distor-
tion, transparent effects.
Record Bus:
A separately switched stereo bus can be routed to from any channel creating a selective
recording bus, monitoring bus or stereo clean feed output. You can even route just the ef-
fects processor output to this bus and use the mixer as a high end effects unit.
USB:
Getting audio to and from a computer easily is now a common requirement for live sound
and music production. The way we have implemented this on ZED is super-flexible and super
-easy! No longer do you need to fiddle around the back of your computer 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.
Internal power supply:
Not a “wall wart” - a proper built in power supply specifically designed and based on totally
reliable technology.
