This is the effects-free version; the ZED-6FX model adds an onboard effects engine for users who require reverb and delay processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/allen-and-heath-zed-6-compact-analog-mixer-creation-networks-17991.jpg\" alt=\"Allen \u0026amp; Heath ZED-6 Compact Analog Mixer - Creation Networks\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGS2-R24-Derived Mic Preamps\u003c\/strong\u003e — Allen \u0026amp; Heath's professional preamp lineage delivers low noise and extended headroom in a compact format\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2x Hi-Z Guitar Inputs\u003c\/strong\u003e — channels 1 and 2 accept guitars and basses directly, eliminating the need for separate DI boxes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMusiQ 2-Band EQ per Channel\u003c\/strong\u003e — musically voiced equalization curves for practical tonal adjustment on instruments and vocals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Pass Filter per Channel\u003c\/strong\u003e — reduces low-frequency rumble and stage noise for a cleaner mix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e48V Phantom Power\u003c\/strong\u003e — powers condenser microphones on the two mic inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBalanced XLR Main Outputs\u003c\/strong\u003e — drives powered speakers and professional PA systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8-Segment LED Metering\u003c\/strong\u003e — continuous visual output level monitoring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePFL (Pre-Fader Listen)\u003c\/strong\u003e — per-channel source monitoring via headphone output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Power Supply\u003c\/strong\u003e — no external adapter, reduces stage clutter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e60mm Main Fader\u003c\/strong\u003e — smooth-travel fader for precise master level control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eInput Channels\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 (2 Mic\/Line, 2 Stereo Line)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMic Preamps\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 (GS2-R24 derived)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHi-Z Inputs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 (Channels 1 \u0026amp; 2, 1\/4\" TS)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEQ\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2-band MusiQ per input channel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFilters\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh-pass filter per channel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBuilt-In Effects\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNone (see ZED-6FX)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMain Outputs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2x Balanced XLR\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHeadphone Output\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1x 1\/4\" TRS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePhantom Power\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e48V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMetering\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8-segment LED\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMain Fader\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60mm smooth-travel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower Supply\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInternal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Heath","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44510827413740,"sku":"AH-ZED6","price":199.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/allen-and-heath-zed-6-compact-analog-mixer-creation-networks-92754.jpg?v=1793700740"},{"product_id":"allen-heath-zedi-8-compact-hybrid-mixer-usb-interface","title":"Allen \u0026 Heath ZEDi-8 Compact Hybrid Mixer\/USB Interface","description":"\u003ch2\u003eAllen \u0026amp; Heath ZEDi-8 – Compact Hybrid Mixer \/ USB Audio Interface\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Allen \u0026amp; Heath ZEDi-8 is a compact hybrid unit that functions simultaneously as a six-input analog mixer and a 24-bit\/96 kHz USB audio interface.

It is designed for small-format live mixing, studio recording, house of worship, and AV installation applications where quality, connectivity, and portability must coexist. The 3-band swept-mid EQ on all four mono channels uses Allen \u0026amp; Heath's MusiQ technology to maintain consistent tonal character across the boost\/cut range. Balanced XLR main outputs with insert points and a flexible monitoring section with headphone and speaker monitor outputs complete a feature set that exceeds most mixers in this size class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZED-10FX occupies a specific position in Allen \u0026amp; Heath's ZED lineup as the version with the most comprehensive feature set for its channel count: four mono channels, two stereo channels, onboard digital effects, and a USB interface for direct recording and playback.

Six DuoPre preamps deliver 69 dB of gain with an equivalent input noise of -127 dBu, giving the mixer the headroom and noise performance required for demanding live sound and recording scenarios. The ZED-12FX analog mixer with USB and built-in effects is a practical choice for houses of worship, conference rooms, and small-venue live sound where a single device needs to handle mixing, effects, and computer audio simultaneously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChannels 1 through 6 accept balanced XLR microphone or 1\/4\" line signals.

Sixteen mono input channels provide DuoPre microphone preamps with Neutrik XLR connectors, and four stereo channels add capacity for keyboards, media playback, and effects returns. A USB 1.1 port connects directly to Mac or Windows computers for stereo 2-channel recording and playback without additional hardware. With 100mm faders, four independent aux sends, insert points on every mono channel, and comprehensive output options, the ZED-24 is a practical, reliable console for demanding applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZED-24's 16 DuoPre preamp channels accept both microphone and line-level signals through Neutrik XLR and balanced 1\/4\" TRS connectors respectively, covering the full range of sources from condenser microphones to professional line-level equipment. Gain range extends from -6 to +63 dB on mic inputs, accommodating low-output dynamics and ribbon microphones as readily as high-sensitivity condensers. Global phantom power at +48V serves condenser microphones across all 16 XLR inputs. Each mono channel carries a 3-band equalizer with sweepable midrange frequency selection from 120 Hz to 4 kHz, a 12 dB\/octave high-pass filter at 100 Hz, and independent mute and PFL solo controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour mono aux sends with independent level controls per channel provide routing flexibility for multiple monitor mixes and external effects feeds simultaneously. Insert points on all 16 mono channels and the stereo bus allow direct integration of outboard compressors, gates, and equalizers into the signal path without requiring patchbays. The four stereo input channels accept balanced and unbalanced 1\/4\" TRS stereo pairs with 2-band EQ and independent mix controls, making them suitable for keyboards, drum machines, and program material playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/allen-and-heath-zed-24-small-format-24-channel-analog-mixer-with-usb-connection-creation-networks-74325.jpg?v=1757936534\" alt=\"Allen \u0026amp; Heath ZED-24 Small-Format 24-Channel Analog Mixer with USB Connection - Creation Networks\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/allen-and-heath-zed-24-small-format-24-channel-analog-mixer-with-usb-connection-creation-networks-68974.jpg?v=1757936535\" alt=\"Allen \u0026amp; Heath ZED-24 Small-Format 24-Channel Analog Mixer with USB Connection - Creation Networks\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/allen-and-heath-zed-24-small-format-24-channel-analog-mixer-with-usb-connection-creation-networks-29256.jpg?v=1757936535\" alt=\"Allen \u0026amp; Heath ZED-24 Small-Format 24-Channel Analog Mixer with USB Connection - Creation Networks\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe main output section provides balanced XLR stereo outputs, a balanced 1\/4\" mono main output, and a source-selectable stereo alt output via RCA. Dual 12-segment LED meters give a clear indication of main output levels, and a peak indicator LED on every channel provides at-a-glance clip detection. A USB Type-B port delivers 2-channel stereo audio I\/O to connected computers at up to 48 kHz, useful for broadcast feeds, recording main mixes, and stereo playback from DAW software during soundcheck.

The DuoPre microphone preamplifiers deliver clean, low-noise gain with plenty of headroom, while the three-band EQ with sweepable mid on every mono channel gives engineers precise tonal control for live sound and studio applications. A USB 1.1 port provides stereo audio I\/O to any Mac or Windows computer, enabling direct recording without an external audio interface.

Eight channels of bidirectional analog I\/O are provided via Euroblock connectors, and an expansion port supports networking up to 128 bidirectional channels for larger system architectures. The 96 kHz FPGA processing core delivers ultra-low latency with a complete signal processing toolset on every input and output zone, including 8-band parametric EQ, dynamics, delay, and speaker processing. Four programmable SoftKeys on the front panel give non-technical operators direct access to volume control, source selection, and preset recall without navigating complex menus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AHM-16 is purpose-built for installed sound environments where a single processor needs to manage multiple independent audio zones with different source and level requirements. The 16 configurable processing outputs can each be set up as mono or stereo zones, or reconfigured for speaker processing duties including crossover filtering, delay alignment, and limiting. This dual-role capability means the AHM-16 can function as both a zone distribution matrix and a loudspeaker management system simultaneously, eliminating the need for separate hardware in many installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSound management functions are built into the processing core and operate automatically without operator input. The Automatic Mic Mixer distributes gain across open microphones to manage feedback and level consistency in conference and presentation spaces.

Priority ducking automatically reduces background music or lower-priority sources when a paging microphone or primary source is active, making it ideal for restaurants, retail environments, and multi-use spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/allen-and-heath-ahm-16-16-x-16-audio-matrix-processor-creation-networks-30985.webp?v=1757938315\" alt=\"Allen \u0026amp; Heath AHM-16 16 x 16 Audio Matrix Processor - Creation Networks\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/allen-and-heath-ahm-16-16-x-16-audio-matrix-processor-creation-networks-11894.webp?v=1757938317\" alt=\"Allen \u0026amp; Heath AHM-16 16 x 16 Audio Matrix Processor - Creation Networks\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThird-party control integration is handled through robust GPIO connectivity and support for IP control protocols, enabling integration with room control systems, scheduling platforms, and building automation systems from major manufacturers.

It receives up to 40 audio sources over a single Cat5 cable from a compatible Allen \u0026amp; Heath console — including GLD, iLive, and via the ME-U hub, a wide range of third-party digital mixers — and mixes these to stereo and mono outputs for headphones, in-ear monitors, or stage loudspeakers. The ME-1's 16 assignable keys and grouping system allow each musician to organize the 40 channels into a layout that matches their monitoring needs, and 16 user presets store complete mix configurations for instant recall between songs or sets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn live performance environments, monitor mixing is one of the most operationally complex and interpersonally sensitive aspects of production. The Allen \u0026amp; Heath ME Personal Monitoring System addresses this by decentralizing monitor control: instead of the front-of-house or monitor engineer managing every performer's mix, each musician operates their own ME-1 unit at their station, adjusting their mix in real time without requiring communication with the mix position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/allen-and-heath-ah-me-1-personal-monitor-mixer-creation-networks-36829.jpg?v=1757938335\" alt=\"Allen \u0026amp; Heath AH-ME-1 Personal Monitor Mixer - Creation Networks\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe ME-1 receives its 40-channel audio feed over a single Cat5 cable using Allen \u0026amp; Heath's proprietary protocol, with Power over Ethernet (PoE) also carried on the same cable — eliminating the need for a separate power supply at the performer's position. Multiple ME-1 units daisy-chain on the Cat5 run, so a full band of performers can each have an independent monitor mixer connected on a single cable backbone from the console.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/allen-and-heath-ah-me-1-personal-monitor-mixer-creation-networks-72989.jpg?v=1757938336\" alt=\"Allen \u0026amp; Heath AH-ME-1 Personal Monitor Mixer - Creation Networks\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach ME-1 provides individual level, mute, pan, and solo control per input source, alongside a master 3-band EQ and limiter on the output. Sources can be grouped — for example, all drum channels as one group, all guitars as another — so that a musician with limited mixing experience can manage their monitor sound using a small number of group faders rather than 40 individual channels. Custom naming for channels, groups, keys, and presets allows each ME-1 to be configured for its specific user before the show.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCompatibility extends beyond Allen \u0026amp; Heath GLD and iLive systems through the ME-U hub (sold separately), which bridges Dante, EtherSound, MADI, and Aviom Pro16 protocol sources into the ME system.

Engineered to match the C1500's dimensions precisely, the kit provides a secure, vibration-resistant mounting solution that protects the console during transport and maintains professional aesthetics in installed environments. The bracket set mounts the C1500 flush within a rack frame without modifying the console, preserving the warranty and resale value of the surface. For integrators deploying dLive systems in fixed installations or touring rigs, the DLC15-RK19 is the correct and only Allen \u0026amp; Heath-approved rack solution for this console.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dLive C1500 is Allen \u0026amp; Heath's entry-point into the dLive digital mixing platform, offering 12 faders, full dLive processing, and compatibility with all dLive MixRacks and I\/O expanders. While the C1500 is designed for use on a tabletop or in a custom-built position, many permanent and touring deployments require the console to sit in a standard 19\" rack — and the AH-DLC15-RK19 is the hardware that makes this possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/allen-and-heath-ah-dlc15-rk19-dlive-c1500-19-rackmount-kit-creation-networks-95649.jpg?v=1757938341\" alt='Allen \u0026amp; Heath AH-DLC15-RK19 dLive C1500 19\" Rackmount Kit - Creation Networks' style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe bracket assembly is manufactured to Allen \u0026amp; Heath's production tolerances, ensuring the C1500 sits level within the rack with all rear panel connectors accessible.

Like all dLive MixRacks, it houses the XCVI processing core delivering 128 full-processing input channels, a configurable 64-bus architecture, and 0.7ms latency at 96kHz. The CDM48 targets mid-to-large scale live sound, house of worship, and installed AV systems that need more local I\/O than the CDM32 provides but do not require the full 64-channel analogue density of the CDM64.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe XCVI Core inside the CDM48 operates 36 parallel virtual processing cores, calculating over 10,000 mix crosspoints per sample at a 96kHz sample rate. The 96-bit accumulator provides virtually unlimited internal headroom, and the 0.7ms end-to-end latency makes the dLive system one of the lowest-latency professional digital mixing platforms available. All 128 input channels carry full processing including preamp, HPF, gate, parametric EQ, compressor, and delay.

This translates to 128 full-processing inputs, 16 stereo FX returns, a 96-bit accumulator for virtually unlimited internal headroom, and the 0.7ms end-to-end latency that dLive is known for. The configurable 64-bus architecture covers groups, FX sends, aux buses, matrix outputs, and mains in LR, LCR, or 5.1 configurations, giving system designers full flexibility to match the signal routing to any venue or production requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/allen-and-heath-ah-dlive-cdm64-dlive-c-class-mixrack-64x32-io-128-x-64-fpga-1-option-io-me-1-port-dx-expander-link-creation-networks-69665.webp?v=1757938374\" alt=\"Allen \u0026amp; Heath AH-DLIVE-CDM64 dLive C Class MixRack 64x32 I\/O, 128 x 64 FPGA, 1 option I\/O, ME-1 port, DX Expander Link - Creation Networks\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDEEP processing embeds class-leading compressor and EQ emulations directly into channel strips without using FX slots or adding latency.

Weighing just 11.5 kg (25.4 lbs), with titanium side panels and lightweight alloy metalwork, the CTi1500 is designed to weigh under 23 kg total with flight case, I\/O card, and dust cover combined, making it compliant with typical airline baggage limits for checked luggage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CTi1500 delivers the same Harmony UI and dLive processing found in larger C and S Class surfaces, built around a 12-inch capacitive touchscreen and 12 motorized faders across 6 fully assignable layers — 72 total fader strips. The touchscreen responds to pinch, swipe, and drag-and-drop gestures for direct access to EQ, dynamics, FX, and routing, and was specifically engineered for daylight visibility to remain usable on outdoor stages and in high-ambient-light environments. Nineteen assignable SoftKeys and 3 pages of 6 assignable rotaries provide rapid one-touch access to custom functions, scenes, and processing controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnboard I\/O includes 6 XLR mic\/line inputs and 6 XLR line outputs, plus 1 stereo AES3 input and output. The rear-panel I\/O option slot accepts 128-channel networking cards at 96 kHz for Dante, MADI, or gigaACE. A DX link supports connection to DX32 or DX168 expanders for additional I\/O in larger deployments. The CTi1500 connects to any dLive MixRack via a single CAT5e cable. Dedicated Engineer's Wedge and IEM fader strips accommodate monitor engineering directly from the surface. USB stereo recording and playback is included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg
