It packs 10 mono channels, 3 stereo channels, and a top-notch FX unit, all in a rack-mountable package. Plus, with its configurable USB audio in/out, recording stereo quality sound directly to a computer is a breeze.
Gone are the days of struggling with PC soundcard inputs. The ZED-16FX's USB connection is about as hassle-free as it gets. Plug in, pick your settings on the mixer and your computer, and you're ready to record or play back with CD-quality audio. This feature is a godsend for live sound management and music production.
The mixer boasts a responsive 3-band EQ with MusiQ optimization, making individual instrument equalization more intuitive. The DuoPre pre-amps, inspired by the renowned PA series, offer a two-stage design with significant gain control. This setup ensures minimal noise and maximum sound quality, whether you're plugging in via XLR or line input.
What sets the ZED-16FX apart is its suite of 16 time-delay effects, a luxury for groups who'd rather not lug around an extra effects unit. These high-quality reverbs and effects, unique at this price point, are easily adjustable with a user-friendly interface. Whether you need to tap in the perfect delay time or dial in just the right amount of reverb on vocals, the ZED-16FX makes it simple, akin to using effects pedals.
