What’s great about the ZED-436

he ZED 4-Bus series takes inspiration from different product lines within the A&H range combining them with fresh new ideas to give stunning results in a neat and easy to use package.

The padless DuoPreTM mic/line pre-amplifier is the new design first implemented on the ZED-14 and delivers a high-headroom low-noise signal.  The 4 band 2 sweep EQ along with the low noise summing amps is borrowed from the acclaimed GL2400 while the bus architecture is a simplified but equally comprehensive version of that employed in the successful GL series. 

The USB audio interface with its uniquely flexible capability allows different signals to be sent to USB from LR or from selected aux buses. The USB return signal can be routed straight to the LR mix or to a stereo channel.  The connectors are placed on the top surface for easy plugging & patching and the construction with individual circuit boards firmly nutted to the top panel is as rock solid as Allen & Heath’s top of the range ML Series mixers.

The ZED 4-bus series is available with either 16 mono inputs plus 2 dual stereo channels (ZED-420) 24+2 (ZED-428) or 32+2 (ZED-436).

Also included with ZED 4-Bus is the excellent SONAR LE digital audio workstation software for Windows with audio and MIDI multi-track recording and mixing capability effects plug-ins and editing features enabling the ZED 4-Bus mixer to become a live recording or home recording mixer.
