Allen & Heath ZED-10

Fantastic Mixer

Got this for the home studio and have been very happy with it. Hard to beat in this price range.

Excellent mixer for podcasting

Love this mixer for podcasting

maximum value for money, good extras

was happy to find out USB connection on it.

fully working, very sturdy and fully-analog device.

i love mine and wont give it away.

Great mixer! Nice sound! Good amp.

Nice quality! Solid!

Highly reccomend!

Great cheap mixer! The sound is quite nice!

It's cheap, it's small, and it does what it says on the tin. BUT... I gotta say, the summing on this thing is suuuuper musical, warm, butter and the channels gel so well. It has this sort of soft, tape-like treatment of transients that's pretty wild. Also it over-drives really nicely. I got myself a Mackie VLZ4 after this thing and I honestly miss the sound of this one, to the point that I'm thinking of going back to the ZED series. The new mixer sounds so sterile compared to this thing.

If you're looking for your first mixer, this should be it.

Great small mixer

I love it and it works and sounds great. The only thing I hate is that the XLR cables connect at the top of the mixer. This makes the cables reach high and if you are using the mixer infront of a screen, those cables might cover the picture. I am sorry I didn't get the SoundCraft one which has the cables coming out of the back of the mixer. But this one sounds great and the EQ knobs are really good.

Excellent small live mix desk

I've been using this desk for the past few months for both individual mixing (mic, keyboard, bass to a personal monitor) and as a live mixer for small ensemble work. Excellent in all respects - build quality, sound, ease of use. If you mix a lot of vocals, you may benefit from a model with some reverb (not available on this model) or an external fx unit with reverb / comp etc.,

Perfect mixer for a home usage. Very stable, nicely built, has a lot of useful features, very intuitive and simple interface.

Great for small bands and acoustic acys

I've had this little beast for a good few years now and it still lives in my car in case my digital iPad only mixer breaks down!

Sound quality and eq section on each channel is spot on, tone for vocals can be dialled in super fast.

The fx and aux sends are great allowing you to add reverb (as the unit doesn't have fx) if you require, and a nice level sent to monitors too.

Overall, great sound, small footprint, reliable, easy to use. What's not to like?!

The best what you can get

I looked for some small versatile mixer to be used with microphones on the drum set. I am usually sceptical when seeing so many positive reviews on item. But I must confirm that ZED-10 deserves for them. I did not heard better sound quality mixer in that range before. Equipped pre amps are absolute top notch and give perfect warm without EQ distortion especially on overhead microphones. This at least is worth the price of the unit. It has 3 range EQ available with possibility to swipe through mid range. Pretty useful for the selectivity within 'most busy" range of every instrument. It has USB port and is compatibly with most of DAW's. There is 2 track recording possible. It's a perfect mixer for the drummer using four microphones (bass,snare,overheads) configuration. It can be used also for small band, thanks to 4 XLR channels. But I would suggest to buy the ZED-10 FX version which has built-in effects.

Unit is very easy and intuitive in use. It's considerably heavy and well built. Unit is powered with typical 3 pin cable. No fancy incompatible power supplies which is a huge plus. There is 48V phantom power available for every channel

Well done Allen & Heath.
