ZED-6FX Technical Datasheet 2 Allen & Heath Ltd
A&E Specifications
The mixer shall be a compact and portable analog mixer with two
mono and two stereo input channels mixing to a stereo Main Mix
output. The mixer shall weigh no more than 1.36kg (3lbs).
Each mono input channel shall have an XLR Microphone connector
and Line level quarter-inch jack connector and shall be equipped
with High Pass Filter and 2-band equaliser circuit
Stereo input channels shall use quarter-inch jack connectors, and
shall have a fixed 2-band EQ.
All XLR Microphone inputs shall have the ability to power
Condenser Microphones requiring 48 Volt Phantom Power. This
shall be switchable and have a red LED to indicate activation.
There shall be two high-impedance jack inputs on mono channels,
which can handle a normal line level or a low level input directly
from a guitar pickup, allowing instruments such as guitars to be
plugged straight into the mixer without the need for a DI box.
XLR Mic input characteristics shall conform to a Gain Min/Max of
6dB to 60dB with a maximum Input Level of 13dBu.
Quarter-inch jack Line input characteristics shall conform to a Gain
Min/Max of -14dB to 40dB with a maximum Input Level of 18dBu.
The mixer shall have on-board effects which can be independently
applied to each input channel. In addition there shall be an effects
out on a quarter-inch jack connector.
The mixer surface shall include independent rotary control for
each input channels gain, level and mix. Each channel should have
an individual Pan control and a [PFL] switch to route to the
headphone output. An LED shall indicate when a [PFL] channel is
active.
The Headphone output should use a quarter-inch jack connector
with a rotary to control output level.
The L&R outputs shall have XLR connectors and will be controlled
via a mix output fader. Level indication shall be via a stereo eight
segment LED display.
It shall have a built in power supply accepting AC mains voltages
of 100~240V, 50/60 Hz, 12W max via an earthed 3-pin IEC C6 male
connector mounted on the rear chassis.
A switch shall be provided near the mains inlet to isolate the mixer
from the incoming mains supply.
Recommended operating temperature for the mixer shall be 0 to
35 degrees Celsius.
The unit shall be the Allen & Heath ZED-6FX.
