Allen & Heath ZED60-14FX Mixer Tutorial Part One

[@davidinmetroland8811]

This is the most comprehensive explanation of this brilliant board. It is by far the best filmed and professionally produced video I have ever seen on KZbin - and that includes many corporate videos! Don't bother with the videos that explain how to unpack a cardboard box - this is the one to watch!

Thank you my good man. Your video's have helped me understand mixers a whole lot better, thanks to the time you take to delve into the subject at hand.. namely the Yamaha MG124C.. with the one-knob compression feature and how to understand what it's doing and how it's impacting what you're listening to.. So looking forward to putting it into practice. Stay blessed man. Peace n love.

A very useful tutorial. Highlighted me about all features of the ZED series. I finally decided to choose Allen & Heath rather than other brands as had thorough studies about audio quality, build quality, performance, and features. I have to say that Allen & Heath is the winner over the others. Good job!

Always excellent..... my church isnt ready for digital. this mixer may just be the bridge to it...kudos

[@GLBProductions]

Smaller churches are often served perfectly well by an analog mixer - they are much easier to train people on (especially those who are visual learners) and those who learn on analog can easily switch to digital later on. Those who learn on digital often have difficulty visualising signal flow and hence need help when switching to analog.

[@echan101]

I asked Allen and Heath support about the pre-mute aux out and they came back quickly saying that there is a jumper mod that a service centre can perform to make the aux post-mute aux. It's shown on the schematic in the manual. If it weren't for that, this would be a great mixer. Meanwhile I have to work with what I have... mics will all need mutes and gooseneck mics can't be on foldbacks I guess... wait til the 1 year warranty runs out and bust it open!

[@GLBProductions]

Interesting information! Pre- and post-mute aux sends have different uses: pre-mute is the standard for recording, where the artists need to be able to hear themselves even if what they are playing is not being sent to the recorder. It's also the standard for in-ear-monitors. All the best with your setup!

[@thomgreen2307]

Great Job, your the best. waiting for part two , thanks

[@GLBProductions]

Thanks for watching! Parts two and three have been shot, I've just been too busy with shows to finish the editing. They should be out in a week or two.

[@chaosiii]

So, at the 9:00 minute mark, you talk about the 100Hz HPF but using your voice as an example probably didn't do it justice. What I have found is that it removes the rumble from an exhale very nicely since that portion of sound is down in the double-digit Hz range. After watching your video to understand my ZEDi 10fx, I tried a few different scenarios and said breath rumble, fluorescent hum, a dryer, all were impacted by the switch. You just have to be conscious of what you could remove, especially in a studio.

[@GLBProductions]

Good points, thanks.

[@jello-tarzan]

Excellent demo, thank you!

[@waltersmetak]

Woe! This was great!!! But where's part two? Really would like an explanation on the existing routing possibilities - have a Zed10fx and was curious on how to feed the mixer with external effects (instead of the ones built into the mixer). Needless to say, the manual leaves much to be desired. On the other hand, your explanation was crystal clear!

[@GLBProductions]

[@Charles-ui4rx]

Very Good.... Im still going over the Aux Buses but it's comming along

[@lymerbean88]

1 second ago GREAT little mixer with just one snag - the channel aux (monitor send) output stays on when you mute the channel. I had to open up the mixer and move a few wires around on the channel PCB's to mute the aux out when the channel mute buttons are pressed. I probably voided the warranty when i did this. USB recording out works GREAT, though there are a lot of USB mixers out there these days.

[@TheFendertak]

Hi love your videos, I hope you can advise, I have the Allen and heath Zed12fx and also I have my backing tracks on a ipad gen 9, at the moment my connecting is trs 3.5mm from ipad to 2 TS jack plugs, My question is can I use 3.5mm to Single XLR to desk and will it give much better sound on on backing tracks, and also free up a channel, Im looking to get best sound from my ipad, I even plugged my 2 TS into a stereo channel and I felt I was not greeting louder volume, thanks for your time Bruno

[@GLBProductions]

Hi there Martin! No please do NOT use a 3.5mm to XLR male adapter - you will lose information when you hard-wire the two stereo channels together like that. If you want to save a channel then use a signal combiner such as a stereo to mono DI box - there are several of those available on the market such as the Radial ProAV1 or Whirlwind PCDI.

[@damiannavsky]

Im not very good at all these technical issues but I got a problem. In my church I need to work with that mixer. The church is huge so the echos are a problem. What should I do to minimalize the echo effects on this mixer?

[@GLBProductions]

Hi Damian - if the echoes are caused by the physical size of your church there is nothing you can do about that on the mixer 😉 Highly reverberant spaces like that need to be addressed by a combination of good system design, speaker choice and placement as well as managing people's expectations.

[@WestCoastFront]

Been djing for years, but how can I connect two separate amps to this mixer along with a DJ mixer?

[@GLBProductions]

Yes you can, although this amp has only one set of main outputs so that amps will need to be daisy-chained together.

[@Pete7Davies]

Hi. I have just bought a Boss VE 1 vocal effects pedal, was hoping you could tell me the best way of connecting it to the A&H Zed 60 10FX, and what leads I will need. I've tried going into the pedal with my mic, and into mic channel 1 on the mixer, but not sure if it's ideal to be doing it that way. I bought the pedal because I couldn't really find the kind of effect I needed from the mixer effects. I'm just looking for a nice ballad setting, for old 50s and 60s type songs. Thanks in advance, Love your channel.

[@GLBProductions]

Hi Pete this pedal appears to be designed to have the microphone connected directly to it, and then have the output of the pedal connected to the mixer, so I would set it up that way.

Soy Raúl Vega de la ciudad de Calama-Chile

[@GLBProductions]

Hola Raúl, me alegro de que el video haya sido útil. Cómo conectar un compresor a los insertos principales: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iH3JaZ2OfNl5btk Sí, se comprimirá toda la mezcla. ¡Todo lo mejor!

[@tennactennacerobert7732]

Can I use external gear on mono channels such as compression? would I be able to use outboard gear on master buss channel. I want to switch from audio interface to a beginner level mixer. Thought about ssl six but I want something in my budget that will allow me to use outboard gear. Any feedback would big help. Keep the videos up, I love them.

[@GLBProductions]

Thanks for watching Robert! This mixer has L&R main mix inserts which allow outboard processors to be applied to the entire mix. However this is not possible on the individual channels as there are no channel insert points.

[@zackdelarocha8]

@19:50 You said you can't use a compressor/limiter on individual channels... but can you still use a compressor/limiter with it if you connect to the main mix?

[@GLBProductions]

That is correct :)

[@zackdelarocha8]

does it matter if it's main mix insert L or insert R? I have my heilp40 on line 1 but it's going through compressor/limiter first.

[@GLBProductions]

If you are using both main outputs you need to compress both of them using a stereo compressor or two linked mono compressors.

[@zackdelarocha8]

so heil pr40 straight to line1 and my main output to behringer multicom pro-xl4600 input and then the compressor output into my h4n recorder?

[@GLBProductions]

Yes, or you can insert the compressor into the channel or across the main outputs. All three are valid approaches.

[@sildiaz9975]

Hi Bruno! I'm from Argentina and your videos are awesome, really clear so I would like to ask you to explain how the dbx driverack pa2 works. I'm starting in the business and I'll buy 2 mains R112, 2 subs R118, 2 amplifiers and a mixer mg166c, all yamaha. I read about dbx pa2 and it has really good critics so I'll buy it for crossover, eq, anti feedback. The thing is I don't know how to use it in a proper way. The driverack has a speaker list where you can select your speakers and your amplifiers to save time in the configuration, if my speakers don't show I'll have to select 'not listed' and the dbx would take a 'default setup' or something like that. In summary, a good tutorial about this driverack would be really really helpful in order to configure perfectly the PA. Dbx pa2 has lots of features and there is no video in KZbin that is worth it.

[@GLBProductions]

Hello Sil nice to hear from you. May I suggest that before you buy the driverack PA2, you ask the store you are intending to buy from if they can provide training for the product? If you are getting into this professionally you need face to face training on the processor from somebody who can answer questions and help you set it up for your specific system. Even if the store cannot provide training, they should be able to make arrangements with your country distributor for it to be conducted.

[@kennetharvinrodriguez]

Hi! Awesome tutorial you have here. Just want to clarify: is the pan control pre-fader or post-fader?

[@GLBProductions]

Thanks Kenneth. The operation of the pan control is actually not affected by the fader, so it is neither pre- nor post-fader in terms of functionality.

[@TechSomnath]

Bruno brother I have a question,why I am use geq in pa setup instead of active crossover & what is the difference between this two things?

[@GLBProductions]

A graphic EQ is a big tone control device, used to adjust the sound of your PA system. An active crossover is a dividing network used to split the fullrange signal coming from your mixer into different bands (low, mid, high) to be send to different types of speakers. They have two different functions, and you often use them at the same time.

[@TechSomnath]

Thanks for suggestion.

Hi! As mentioned in another video of yours, thank you so much for the quality and detail. How would you compare this with the Yamaha MG10XUF and the Mackie ProFX10V3? Those other two have compresor and the mackie has insert per channel. Regards!

[@GLBProductions]

These are all in the same class of mixer, but they differ in detail, as you have noted. Look very carefully at the features offered by each manufacturer and decide which one suits your needs best. If possible try and examine the mixer physically in person to see which one you prefer. One significant disadvantage of the A&H is that it has no 1/4" main outputs, only XLR - this can be a significant problem for some users!

[@edrock91]

Hi, thank you for the video. I have a zed 10. I have look everywhere but can‘t understand the recording out RCA. I figured out how to send my analog signal into my daw, routing thru the mains and the fx and aux out. This is not the clean sognal For the clean signal I can do it thru the inserts, first stage of the plug. Is this rca copy of the mains or I can use it as an extra „aux out?“ For example channel 1 and 2 thru the mains, hard pan left and right... for the channel 3 and 4, I‘d use the fx out and the aux out, with the faders out. 3, I‘d use fx out with closed aux and faders, for the 4, I‘d use aux out with the faders and fx closed. This way I can rout 4 channels at once into my audio interface. I was wondering if I can rout the stereo channels thru the rca output without having an interference from the mains One last question is you use this „y“ cables. U also mentioned doing this and address it to a di box or splitter. Could you please clarify what and how I can use it? Thank you so much for the video! Much much appreciated

[@GLBProductions]

Hi Ed, the record out is a separate post-fader bus that is fed by the same switches that control the USB out. So it is affected by both fader and pan control positions. It is not a copy of the main mix unless the selector switches are set to 'main mix' ie both switches OUT. If you need more detail than this I strongly suggest that you write directly to A&H and describe your specific set up and what you are trying to achieve. I don't understand your question about Y-cables - could you please be more specific.

[@edrock91]

Hi Bruno, good Brunno! Thank you for your fast and efficient answer! I’m afraid the cable question I ended up mixing up the videos I saw, cause I saw a couple of them before I stop by your channel and as usual, according to what I see here, it’s maybe the most complete tutorial about this and other kind of equipaments!

@@GLBProductions I'm assuming that's what the CP stands for *(Constant Power) The rehearsal room we use I noticed that the PA Speakers are passive, but instead of being powered by the desk they are powered with a Power Amp.

I'm buying a mixer in a few months and I have been looking at the Zed-10FX, which is quite similar to what you are explaining. I've been also looking at a Soundcraft Signature 10. Do you know how the 2 compare in build quality?

[@GLBProductions]

That's a good question - soundcraft build quality has always been good and in my experience their analog mixers last a very long time even when used hard. However the signature series is relatively new (introduced in 2015) so long term reliability is yet to be determined. I would say that you would need to look at price, feature set and very importantly service and support in your area before making a decision.

[@jeromemckenna7102]

Thanks for the reply. You've given me a lot of useful information. The prices for both the Zed-10FX and the Signature 10 are similar and their features are similar enough for my purpose. Your information on the difference in construction between the Allen and Heath and the Yamaha MG series is what has pushed me in that direction.

I would describe them as just ok - about what you would expect at this price point.

[@aidanvinum]

I’m trying to add fx pedals to affect all channels. I didn’t it easily with Mackie Mix8. I just bought Allen&Heath Zed 10x. I can’t seem to figure it out. :( please help ).

[@GLBProductions]

On that mixer you can use the main mix inserts to add effects pedals to the mix.

[@aidanvinum]

GLB Productions How...exactly?

[@GLBProductions]

Using the insert cable that I show in the video, connect the output of the insert point (tip) to the input of the first pedal and the return of the insert point (ring) to the output of the last pedal. Note that this will only affect one side of the stereo signal (left or right, depending on which insert point you use).

[@boimesa8190]

i'm still quite confused as to how many usb channels can be sent separately into the computer (DAW)

[@GLBProductions]

It's bi-directional so two channels in either direction.

[@boimesa8190]

ok so not every channel separately into the daw?

[@GLBProductions]

Any of the mono channels can be routed to the DAW but only two channels at any one time.

[@edrock91]

Hi Bruno, good day! Hope you are doing fine. Between the Zed series (Zed 10) or wizard (14:4:2), which one would you chose?! Kind Regards

[@edrock91]

Or a soundcraft spirit m8

[@edrock91]

Or a zed 420. This has direct out. I think I can send them direct to my audio interface if I am not mistaken. Thousand times appreciated Bruno! 🙏🏾

[@GLBProductions]

Hi Ed, these mixers are very different in terms of their channel count, number of subgroups and outputs, type of EQ and physical size. They are all decent boards and I might choose any of them depending on my needs for that job. I think you need to define your own needs more clearly in order to help you make that choice.

[@scruffy2365]

How do you use the zed16fx with cubase elements 11

[@GLBProductions]

The USB interface on that mixer is similar in that you have buttons to choose which outputs are fed to the computer. Audio is returned to the ST3 channel only.

[@scruffy2365]

@@GLBProductions thanks mate think Ive worked it out.

[@scruffy2365]

@@GLBProductions I was getting cross track recording due to the stereo return the loop back through main L R outs for monitoring. To prevent this would you suggest having my return St3 routed to the channel fader or aux 1 aux2 for alt output. Theres also a send option of pre LR so my recording levels would be sent from the channel fader? Just trying to not re record when listening and recording a new track. Thanks again

[@saltypancreas5866]

Does this have noise gate compression desser etc

The FX section is covered in detail in part 2.

Can you use an audio interface in addition to this mixer?

Sure - how do you propose to connect the interface?

Hello! Are ST1 ,ST2 input jacks balanced or unbalanced?

Balanced or unbalanced, depending on what you connect :)

Hi, I'm looking to buy a mixer. Which one is better, this mixer or the peavey pv14at?

[@GLBProductions]

I've never used the Peavey so can't really comment. However on paper the Peavey does appear to have far more in the way of features, if that's what you need.

[@elmortobeats5919]

GLB Productions but you think the sound quality is good enough for studio recording with a peavey mixer for 300 euros?

[@GLBProductions]

It depends what your requirements are :) Sound quality is extremely subjective.

[@HavasenReddy]

Does it come up as 14 inputs on your daw

[@GLBProductions]

No, stereo only.

[@korospds]

Please how many speakers can plug

[@GLBProductions]

You cannot connect passive speakers directly to this mixer - you need to connect to an amplifier first.

[@korospds]

@@GLBProductions Thanks sir but I take about power speaker how many Active speakers can load on this mixer

[@GLBProductions]

If the active speakers are daisy-chained together there is no practical limit to the number that can be connected.

How to get audio output to camera from ths mixer

[@GLBProductions]

I usually use the RECORD OUT connectors.

[@jaysstudion4986]

does the zed need software i just bought it an it didnt come with it

[@GLBProductions]

No software required for the operations shown in the video - just plug and play.

[@raysuda5129]

does this mixer have phantom power please

[@GLBProductions]

Yes it does.

[@fulviomele-musicrevival6723]

Un tutorial in italiano è possibile averlo? Grazie.

[@Chanthuch90]

what do you mean by octave?

[@GLBProductions]

An octave in this case refers to a doubling or halving of the frequency in question. So 100Hz to 50Hz is down an octave, 100Hz to 200Hz is up an octave.

[@GLBProductions]

Yes this mixer is a step up from the Mackie - better build quality and reliability and sounds just as good.

[@garycrase7068]

Is it powered or unpowered ?

[@GLBProductions]

Unpowered, so line level output only.

[@nyinyiphyo5435]
