Allen amp Heath 9 ZED 10 User Guide INTRODUCTION TOTHE ZED 10 Background Overview The Allen amp Heath ZED series mixers have been carefully and lovingly designed in the beau tiful county of Cornwall in the UK and are manufactured alongside a wide range of profes sional audio mixing consoles to the same high standards Many of the components used in ZED 10 and 7 are exactly the same as the larger Allen amp Heath products and the construction methods are also very similar utilising individual vertically mounted channel circuit boards with each rotary control fixed with a metal nut to the front panel This pro vides a very robust product that will resist damage and give years of reliable use It also makes servicing much easier should it be required with the ability to remove one particular channel from the mixer at a time The vertical board construction method is unique in a product at this price point and puts the ZED 10 and ZED IOFX in a truly professional class of their own The audio circuitry is based on years of continual development and refinement the perform ance of all the elements within the mixer is scrutinised and perfected to ensure the very best sound quality possible Multi application ZED s 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 u
