The Allen & Heath ZED-24 (AH-ZED24) is a ZED Mid analogue mixer with 16 mic/line channels with inserts, 4 stereo channels, 4 aux buses, a 2-in / 2-out USB interface, and durable 100mm faders. It is built for bands and venues.
The ZED-24 is part of Allen & Heath's ZED Mid range, with channel counts from 12 to 24. Its preamps keep noise and distortion low, with gain evenly spread across the control for precise settings at any level.
Allen & Heath ZED-24 Features
- 16 mic/line channels with inserts. Each of the 16 mono channels has an XLR mic input, a line input, and an insert point. Allen & Heath quotes 69dB of preamp gain, enough for low-output dynamic mics and quiet acoustic sources.
- 4 stereo channels. 4 stereo channels take keyboards, playback devices, and the USB return. The USB return comes back on a stereo channel, so you can play back or monitor a computer feed without using a mono channel.
- 3-band MusiQ EQ with swept mid. Every mono channel has a 3-band MusiQ EQ with a swept mid frequency. Allen & Heath optimised the curves and Q for individual instruments so it stays musical on stage and in the studio.
- Flexible stereo USB recording. The 2-channel USB interface can send Main Mix L+R pre or post-fader, Auxes 1-2, or Auxes 3-4. That lets you record the show, feed a stream, or send a separate mix to a computer.
- Aux sends for monitors and effects. The ZED-24 has 4 aux sends you can use for stage monitor mixes, in-ear mixes, or feeds to external effects processors, with no internal FX bus taking one of them.
- Durable 100mm faders. Long-throw 100mm faders on every channel give you fine level control during a show, with XLR main outputs and insert points on the main mix.
Where the ZED-24 Fits
Live bands: Mic up to 16 sources, feed monitors from the aux sends, and record the main mix over USB.
Venues and houses of worship: Stereo channels take playback devices, and insert points let you add outboard dynamics on key channels and the mains.
