The Allen & Heath ZED-28 is a 28-channel analog mixer offering versatile I/O and a user-friendly workflow for use in home and project studio recording, houses of worship, and live sound reinforcement. The 24 mono channels feature Neutrik XLR mic and 1/4" line inputs, DuoPre preamps with phantom power and bountiful gain, 1/4" insert points, and 4-band EQ with sweepable mids, while the two stereo channels have 1/4" inputs and 4-band EQ with fixed mids. All channels are equipped with long-throw 100mm faders, solo and mute buttons, and independent aux send knobs.

The six aux sends are ideal for routing to floor monitors and outboard time-based effects. A USB 1.1 port delivers 2-channel send and return capabilities via a Mac or Windows computer. There are stereo and mono main outputs in addition to four group outputs, two matrix outs, and two headphone outputs; multi-segment LED meters clearly indicate your group and main output levels. Patch additional stereo sources into the RCA stereo returns and 2-track input. The 2-track RCA output is handy for recording your mix to an external device such as a cassette deck or computer soundcard. The ZED-28 also boasts an external talkback mic input with an adjustable level and the ability to route the talkback signal to the first four aux's or to all main outputs.
