ALLEN & HEATH ZED-436 Recording Console

 ZED436  ALLEN & HEATH 

 32 Channel USB Audio Recording Mixer 

The ZED-436 is one of Allen & Heath's ZED 4 analog bus mixers which are intended for larger bands, houses of worship, theaters, or AV applications. This analog mixer is also useful with PA rental companies looking for a good return on investment with minimal maintenance.

Getting audio to and from a computer easily is now a common requirement for live sound and music production. The way this has been implemented on ZED is super-flexible and super-easy! No longer do you need to fiddle around the back of your PC to get to the soundcard inputs, only to find that the levels are all wrong and noisy. Now you 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!

Based on the proven pre-amps from the hugely successful PA series, ZED-436 has DuoPre pre-amps, which use a two-stage design, with carefully controlled amounts of gain in each stage. When amplifying the signal from the XLR input, the gain range is huge – 69dB of range to be exact – and is very evenly distributed around the gain control, meaning better control of signal level.
