Allen & Heath ZEDi-8 Compact Hybrid Mixer/USB Interface
Key Features
  • 8x Channel Mixer/USB Interface
  • 2x High-Impedance Guitar Inputs
  • 2x Channels Conversion at 24-bit/96 kHz
  • Flexible Signal Routing via USB
Designed to bring the signature Allen & Heath sensibility to a compact and portable frame, the ZEDi-8 is a four-channel mixer that doubles as a USB interface. On the mixer side, you get two XLR inputs, two line/instrument inputs, and two pairs of stereo line inputs. Utilize this unit's digital capabilities and you'll find yourself with two channels of conversion—analog-to-digital or vice-versa. Thus, you'll find the ZEDi-8 equally suited for live-mixing in small venues and for tracking instruments on the fly.

Can the headphone jack on this model be used to send a mono output to a powered monitor?
Asked by: Marc
The Allen & Heath ZEDi-8 Compact Hybrid Mixer/USB Interface's headphone output could be connected to a powered speaker, but headphone outputs do not have the same impedance as true line outputs, and you may experience a degraded/weak signal when compared to a line output.

question

dose it have pad ? to Attenuate the signal ?
Asked by: Behnam B.
The Zedi 8 does not have any pad switches for the input level, but the model up, the Zedi 10 (B&H # ALZEDI10), does have Line/Pad switches on channels 3 and 4 which attenuate the input level by 20 dB.

question

does it have pad ? to Attenuate the signal
Asked by: Behnam B.
No, there is no dedicated pad switch on this mixer. However, Allen & Heath's GSPre preamp stage has a wide dynamic range of 5 to 60 dB and this provides exceptionally low noise and enough headroom to accommodate a wide range of signals. The mixer also features guitar DI high-impedance jack inputs allowing guitars to be plugged straight to the mixer without the need for separate DI boxes. A low-cut filter is also provided to clean-up unwanted low-frequency noise.

question

Is the USB I/O full duplex? For example, can you play back a set of tracks from ProTools and overdub 2 more tracks onto the session using this mixer as the USB interface? I could not get Pro Tools to recognize my old ZED10FX USB inputs and outputs at the same time.
Asked by: George
It should work but there may be an issue with your settings in Pro Tools or on your console. Please contact Richard S. in Allen & Heath Tech Support at 1-800-431-2609, or at cases@americanmusicandsound.fogbugz.com. Thank you.
