INTODUCTION TO THE ZED- BUS IXES A Technical Overview: The Allen & Heath ZED- mixer has been carefully and lovingly designed in the beautiful county of Cornwall in the UK and is manufactured alongside a wide range of professional audio mixing consoles. any of the components used in ZED are exactly the same as in the larger Allen & 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 provides 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, or easily change a fader. The audio circuitry is based on years of continual development and refinement, the performance of all the elements within the mixer scrutinised and perfected to ensure the very best sound quality possible. ic/ine Pre-amps: Based on the pre-amps from the PA series, the ZED series pre-amps use a two stage design, with carefully controlled amounts of gain in each stage. When amplifying the signal from the X 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. ost of the gain comes from the first stage, so unwanted noise is kept to a minimum. There is no pad switch, or pad circuit line level signals are simply plugged into the second stage of the pre-amp by using the line input jack socket. This has the great advantage of lower noise when using the line input. (It is common to attenuate line level signals, the amplify them back up again which can give more noise or hiss). EQ: The ZED- series mixers are equipped with a -band equaliser circuit on each input, based closely on the acclaimed G EQ. The frequency and response of each has been carefully chosen to give the maximum performance when using the EQ on a variety of sources. AUX system: Six auxiliary sends are provided, two pre-fade, two post fade, and two switched pre or post fade. The Aux master level controls are grouped nicely together in the master section and have AF (after fade listen) switches for monitoring. Groups: The four sub-groups can be used for easy control of groups of inputs, or for applying signal processing such as compression to groups of signals using the Group Insert connector. The groups have individual outputs and can also be sub-mixed to the main - and ono mixes. ain ix: In addition to the main - stereo bus, there is a ono bus which can be routed to individually, ideal for feeding low frequency speaker systems, or creating a mono PA mix. ono and Stereo Channels: The ZED-, 8 and 6 models have a full complement of 6, and mono inputs respectively, plus two stereo channels, maximising the number of inputs you get. The Stereo channels are dual, so you can get stereo inputs to mix before you need to use any mono channels. : 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 PC to get to the soundcard inputs, only to find that the levels are all wrong and noisy. Just plug in a lead to your ZED, select the routing on the mixer and the device on your computer and that s it! Quality audio to and from your PC or AC. As you can tell, we re very proud of this product we hope you like it too! Allen & Heath ZED- BUS User Guide

Auxes & Each of these controls sends a signal to an auxiliary bus. The signal is sourced pre-fade which means that the level is independent of, and unaffected by the fader. Auxes & are primarily used for foldback monitoring purposes, as the fader does not affect the level. They can also be used as feeds for recording and are available sources to the interface for this purpose. These sends are affected by the ute switch, so muting the channel will also mute the Aux sends. The control varies the signal level to the bus from off (fully attenuated) to db, with unity gain at the arrow. There are master level controls for all of the Aux outputs situated in the master section of the mixer.

Just a couple of points to look out for:. When you plug in your ZED interface to your computer, check the device volume in: Control Panel\Sounds & Audio Devices\Volume If the volume is not fully up like this... Then drag it fully up like this... Then click Apply. If you want to reduce latency (delay) there are some different drivers available for your operating system.

Put disk into CD or DVD O drive and follow instructions on screen! SONA E Audio Configuration with ZED. To configure your SONA E software to communicate audio to and from your ZED mixing console, follow the sequence below. Ensure the ZED mixing console is powered on. Connect the lead from the computer to the port on ZED. First check that your computer has recognised the connection of the ZED device by clicking Settings/Control Panel/Sounds and Audio Devices. The device name should be Audio CODEC (ensure there are no other external audio devices attached to the computer). Also ensure the Device Volume is set to High. This can default to the middle during connection which means very low volume from the device, so it s worth checking the first few times you connect. The properties window should look like this: It is also a good idea to select No Sounds in the Sounds window. Allen & Heath 9 ZED- BUS User Guide

Next, fire up SONA E. Click Options/Audio and click on the Drivers tab. The Input drivers are the audio sources to the computer, here we have enabled the Audio Device which is the ZED mixing console device, and disabled the audio from the soundcard in the pc. So the computer is set up to receive audio from ZED. The Output Drivers are the audio outputs from the computer. Here you can see that the pc soundcard has stereo outputs (all disabled) and the software has located the Audio Device which is ZED. Tick to enable it. You will now be able to select your ZED left & right outputs as inputs to SONA E and be able to send audio to your ZED from SONA outputs. In order to show how to select inputs to SONA tracks, here is a basic Cakewalk project (.cwp). This is created by clicking File/New/Normal and then inserting a second audio track by clicking Insert/Audio Track from the main toolbar. Click on the I/O tab near the bottom of the window, then click the expand buttons in the audio track panes. The tracks & have been re-named ZED eft and ZED ight by double clicking the name field. Click the I and the O fields to select inputs and outputs for the track. Here we have selected the eft signal to go to Track (ZED eft) and the ight signal to go to track (ZED ight), panned them accordingly and selected the track outputs to be the aster Bus. If audio is present, click the Input Echo buttons (lit up yellow here) to monitor the signals on the aster Bus. The output for the aster Bus is displayed in the field marked O in the aster Bus pane below the input tracks. You can see here it says Audio Device, which is the ZED input. SONA will configure this automatically if there is only one output device enabled in the Output Drivers Options window (above). You should now be able to send audio to and from your ZED mixing console using SONA E. To test this, let s do a recording. Allen & Heath ZED- BUS User Guide

To record the audio on tracks &, click the buttons so they light up red, then the record button (circle) on the transport controls on the top icon toolbar. (Or select larger transport controls from Views). The audio wave profile will show in the track panes. Click stop (Square) when finished. To listen to the recording, click rewind, then de-select the input echo buttons (to the right of the buttons. Also disarm the tracks by deselecting the buttons. Click Play (or spacebar) and the recorded audio should play to the port on your ZED mixing console where you can select return to Playback or to the ST input. You can use SONA E and your ZED mixer together in many ways, for example straightforward recording of a stereo mix, recording tracks individually to build up a song, or sending a postfade mix from ZED and inserting an effects plug-in from SONA E, returning the post-effects signal to the mix in ZED. It is a very versatile combination and we hope you find it a creative and enjoyable product partnership. Allen & Heath ZED- BUS User Guide
