Perfect condition. Allen & Heath ZED-R16 16 Channel FireWire Recording MixerWe are delighted to present Allen & Heath's first true recording mixer for over 10 years. The ZED-R16 is an exceptional recording mixer with 18 FireWire I/O which can also be uséd as a versatile live front of house mixer.The best per forming preamp in Allen & Heath's entire range is packaged with a high quality analogue to Firewire inter face and the most extensive EQ on any mixer at this price point (or even twice the price!) An analogue channel strip so well featured, which sounds this good, is a real find at this level.The Allen & Heath ZE ZED-R16 combines an analogue recording mixer with a FireWire soundcard, MIDI controls and ingenious `home-studio' routing so you can build tracks in the studio, record live gigs, mix-down, remix. all through warm analogue circuitry, 4 band fully parametric classic British EQ and out to crisp, precise digital format.PreampThe ZED-R16's preamp, which has been specially designed for this application, has a symmetrical ultra linear circuit. The best epitaxial low noise transistors are uséd in the front end, and active feedback is employed in both phases before the differential amplifier. This results in super-low distortion, while maintaining low noise (-128.5dBu EIN), high CMRR, and a transparent and beautiful sounding pre-amp.EQ Section Complete with two swept, fully parametric mids, and high and low shelving EQ, the ZED-R16 has a sophisticated equalisation section without rival in this section of the market. It has much in common with our class-leading pro touring mixers. Forty years of analogue mixer design has given us an unparalleled knowledge of filtering.Auxiliary SendsTwo pre and two post aux buses can be uséd as feeds for headphone amplifiers in the studio, FX sends anywhere, or wedge foldback live. The talkback function is either routed to the aux or studio outputs, so is ideal for any environment.FireWire FlexibilityThe digital audio connections are all present on the rear of the desk. Two FireWire connectors allow the ZED-R16 to be connected to a personal computer whilst the second socket daisy chains devices. Two switches change the sample rate and routing selection, while 4 connectors allow input and output to ADAT equipment.
