Allen & Heath ZED-22FX — buyer FAQs
What is the Allen & Heath ZED-22FX and what is it designed for?
The Allen & Heath ZED-22FX is a multipurpose mixer with built-in effects, intended for both live sound and recording. It is suited to groups who need to travel light, offering 16 mono channels, four stereo channels, 16 internal time-delay effects, ALPS 100mm faders and a configurable USB stereo audio interface for straightforward integration with Mac or PC computers.
How does the USB audio routing work on the ZED-22FX?
The ZED-22FX includes a configurable USB stereo audio input and output that connects directly to a Mac or PC without requiring a separate soundcard. Send options include the main mix pre- or post-fade and aux pairs 1-2 or 3-4, while the return feeds back to a stereo channel on the mixer. The design aims to make computer audio straightforward for live sound and music production use.
What EQ does the ZED-22FX use on its mono channels?
Mono channels on the ZED-22FX feature a 3-band EQ with a swept mid frequency, using Allen & Heath's MusiQ design. MusiQ applies an optimised slope, or Q factor, intended for equalising individual instruments. The four stereo channels carry a separate 2-band EQ, and all inputs include individual level control.
Who makes the ZED-22FX and where does it sit in their product range?
The ZED-22FX is made by Allen & Heath, a British manufacturer of audio mixing consoles founded in 1969 and based in Penryn, Cornwall, and part of the Audiotonix group. The ZED-22FX sits within Allen & Heath's ZED range of analogue mixers, targeting the live sound and recording market with a portable, effects-equipped format aimed at groups working on location.
What should I check when buying a second-hand ZED-22FX?
Check that all 16 mono channels pass signal cleanly, that the USB audio routing functions correctly in both send and return directions, and that the 16 internal effects are operational. Inspect the ALPS 100mm faders for smooth travel and confirm the Neutrik XLR and jack inputs are free from crackle or intermittent contact.
