Comments about Allen & Heath ZED24 - 24-Channel Recording and Live Sound Mixer with USB Connection:
I have a small, portable live sound rig that I use primarily for "open mic" folk / acoustic music sessions & performances. The musicians range from newbies to seasoned pros (we never know who's going to show up) so I needed something that was easy to operate on the fly & sounded really good. I had been muddling through for the past few years with a really poor excuse for a board (Beh***ger) until it completely imploded 2 weeks before a large community performance. I quickly researched several units and settled on the A&H for 2 reasons: 1) We needed room for at lease 14 mic inputs (hard to find) & 2) a pro Engineer recommended the brand. I settled on this unit (vs ZED22FX) as I figured I'd continue using my outboard FX.WOW! The sonic clarity of this board is amazing at this price range. Lots of manufacturers make claims about their "boutique" mic pre's and all the bells & whistles they've added to their board. What about just a clean, clear signal path? No one seems to talk about that! Well, the A&H wins hands-down. The controls are clearly laid out and the faders are a joy to operate: smooth, accurate & the 100mm range is a nice feature. The inputs are well laid out making it easy to see what's plugged where at a glance, and the routing capabilities in the ZED are second-to-none. I was able to configure the layout to exactly meet our needs, NOT the other way around! There's plenty of headroom for live sound, and with the recording out's on the board I was able to 2-track the entire performance onto a portable recorder (Marantz PMD660) in a set-it-and-forget-it approach. This board was a terrific investment and I expect it to last for a lifetime. The build quality is very good as compared to the "bargain" brands. Although this is still made in China (so much for the "classic British" EQ sound...) the A&H folks seem to have chosen quality sub's to assemble the product.As always, B&H was the perfect place to shop. When an item is listed as "in stock" then I know for sure that it really is available. Shipping is always quick (basic free ground shipping reaches me in northern New England in just 1 day). Great prices & outstanding service have made B&H my 1st choice for all my gear needs. Thanks!

This board is a important part of our Service on Sunday's Service because it is used to control the sound for our church services every sunday. Nice and crisp high's as well as deep low's pertrude from our speakers and the keyboard sounds great through it. This soundboard is AMAZING!

Comments about Allen & Heath ZED24 - 24-Channel Recording and Live Sound Mixer with USB Connection:
I replaced a lightning damaged Behringer board with this one, and am so glad I did! The ZED24 is very quiet, has truly balanced outputs, USB to a computer, 100mm faders are nice too. The only thing I wish it had was master volumes for aux sends 3 and 4.
