ZED60-10FX Multipurpose Mixer for Live Sound and Recording

The Allen & Heath ZED60-10FX is a compact, portable small-format live mixer designed for small bands and venues who need professional-quality audio performance in a portable package. Part of the acclaimed ZED Mini series, the ZED60-10FX strikes a balance between functionality and convenience, making it equally at home on stage or in a home studio. It delivers a comprehensive feature set — including onboard effects, a built-in USB interface, and musician-focused EQ — without overwhelming users with unnecessary complexity.

60mm Faders & Premium Control

The ZED60-10FX distinguishes itself from other ZED Mini mixers with its premium 60mm faders on all channels, offering a classic, tactile mixing experience that musicians and engineers appreciate. These full-length faders afford precise level control, allowing for smooth, confident adjustments during a live performance or recording session. This design choice reflects Allen & Heath's commitment to delivering professional-grade workflow even in a compact format, ensuring that users have the physical control they need to manage their mix with accuracy and ease.

Onboard FX & Hi-Z Inputs

One of the ZED60-10FX's standout features is its integrated digital effects engine, which provides access to 16 reverb, delay, and modulation effects crafted by Allen & Heath's renowned in-house effects team. These can be easily dialled in to bring depth and character to any performance. Complementing the effects engine are two dedicated Hi-Z guitar DI inputs with a Boost switch, designed for instruments with very low-level outputs. This means guitarists can plug directly into the mixer without needing external DI boxes, simplifying the setup considerably.

MusiQ EQ & USB Interface

The ZED60-10FX features Allen & Heath's proprietary MusiQ EQ, designed specifically for the ZED series by their analogue engineering team. It offers a responsive 3-band design with a swept mid frequency and an optimised Q factor, making it intuitive and musical whether you are equalising a vocal on stage or shaping a guitar tone in the studio. Rounding out the feature set is a two-channel USB audio interface with flexible routing options, enabling users to capture their live performance or create simple two-track recordings directly from the mixer with no additional hardware required.

Why Our Gear Experts Appreciate the ZED60-10FX

Our gear experts love the ZED60-10FX because it removes obstacles between them and their sound. The Hi-Z inputs let guitarists plug straight in without DI boxes, while the MusiQ EQ responds naturally to the way instruments actually sound, not just how engineers think about frequencies. The 16 onboard effects add professional depth to any performance without requiring a separate unit. The 60mm faders give hands-on control that rotary knobs simply cannot match, and the USB interface means capturing a rehearsal or live set is as simple as plugging in a cable.
