Effects Processor - ALLEN & HEATH ZED Sixty-10FX User Manual

INTRODUCTION TO THE ZED Sixty
EQ:
The ZED Sixty 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.
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.

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 ef-
fects. 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
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.
