SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Water and moisture:
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock do not expose the console to rain or moisture or use it in damp
or wet conditions. Do not place containers of liquids on
it which might spill into any openings.
Ventilation:
Do not obstruct the ventilation slots or position the console where the air flow required for ventilation is impeded. If the console is to be operated in a rack unit or
flightcase ensure that it is constructed to allow adequate ventilation.
Do not locate the console in a place subject to excessive heat or direct sunlight as this could be a fire hazard. Locate the console away from any equipment
which produces heat or causes excessive vibration.

Multi-application:
ZEDs are great for live mixing! Their layout makes them very easy to use and easy to
achieve a great sound. They are also perfect for recording, either a live show or an audio
project at home can be built up track by track using the USB digital audio interface. The flexibility and quality of these mixers make them stand out from the crowd. You can plug your
guitars or instruments straight into the class A discrete FET high impedance inputs, cater for
up to eight microphones, two stereo sources with MP3 player compatibility, separate 2-track
record outputs and a stereo playback input for 2-track replay or perhaps interval music from
a CD player, XLR main stereo outputs with inserts, comprehensive monitoring with headphones and separate monitor speaker outputs, 48V microphone phantom power, DI level
switching for sub mixing, and not least of all, the same digital effects algorithms as those used
on our flagship digital consoles costing 150 times as much!
All this and the ability to withstand life being gigged night after nightthere is nothing else
like it at this price point.
ZED mixers are also ideal for teaching establishments, houses of worship, hotels and conference centres where their ease of use and robust qualities make them a top choice.
Mic/Line Pre-amps:
Based on the pre-amps from the MixWizard series, the ZED Sixty pre-amps use low noise
discrete transistor circuitry to achieve high gain (60dB max), low noise and good linearity.
GTR/Hi Z Inputs:
Specially designed, two ultra high impedance discrete class A FET (Field Effect Transistor)
inputs for plugging any kind of guitar or instrument straight in. A 26dB gain boost switch
allows instruments with very low output pickups to be used, and the FET does a great job of
emulating the valve/tube input circuitry commonly found on instrument combos or amplifiers.

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 effects processor output to this bus and use the mixer as a high end effects unit.
Effects Processor:
Zed Sixty mixers have 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 parameters 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
distortion, transparent effects.
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
thats it! CD quality audio to and from your PC or MAC.

Connect your ZED mixer to your Mac via USB and power on the mixer.
2.
With Pro Tools (PT) installed, open Audio MIDI Setup on your Mac. PT should have created a Pro Tools
Aggregate I/O folder in the Audio Devices list. The ZED interface should appear as USB Audio CODEC
in the list along with other audio devices in your system. Tick Use to enable the device in PT.
3.
Run Pro Tools and create a new session with at least two
audio tracks. Open the SETUP/Playback Engine window and
select Pro Tools Aggregate I/O as the Current Engine. Click
OK.
4.
In PT click SETUP and then I/O. Select Output from the menu
and the devices available should appear in a box labelled PTAI/O
(Pro Tools Aggregate I/O). Here you can create a new output
path if one doesnt exist, name it (here its called ZED Stereo
OUT) and tick it to enable.
5.
In I/O Setup, click the Input tab. The input sources appear
for enabled devices in Pro Tools Aggregate I/O. Create a
new path for the inputs and name as you prefer. Note
that mono channels can use one channel of a stereo input
path. Make sure the path is ticked and click OK.
