Allen & Heath ZED-22 FX
The Allen & Heath ZED-22 FX is a versatile analog mixer designed for players, producers, and engineers who want a dependable centerpiece for live sound while still keeping recording and playback simple. With 16 mic/line channels plus three dual stereo channels, it gives you the connection flexibility to run a small band, duo, or solo rig without feeling boxed in.
What makes the Allen & Heath ZED-22 FX especially practical is how naturally it bridges live mixing and studio capture. You get USB (2 x 2) connectivity for immediate recording, four aux sends for monitors and effects routing, and musical EQ across the main channels—so you can dial in a mix quickly and keep it consistent from rehearsal to showtime to a quick tracking session.
As an authorized dealer, Pro Audio Reserve ensures you receive a genuine Allen & Heath mixer backed by full manufacturer warranty and long-term support.
Inputs and Routing That Fit Real Gig Setups
The Allen & Heath ZED-22 FX gives you 22 channels total, built around 16 XLR mic preamps for your vocals, mics, and DI boxes, plus three dual stereo channels for keys, playback, or stereo sources. Four aux sends make it easy to create monitor mixes and keep your effects routing organized, with pre-fade and post-fade options that work naturally in a live environment.
Built-In Effects That Actually Get Used
The “FX” in the ZED-22 FX isn’t an afterthought. You get 16 onboard effects—delays, reverbs, chorus, and flanging—each with a tweakable parameter so you can shape the sound instead of settling for a one-size preset. Five effects support tap tempo, which is especially helpful when you’re matching delays to a live set in the moment.
Simple USB Recording for Quick Capture
When you want to record rehearsals, capture a live set, or bring a stereo mix into your DAW, the ZED-22 FX makes it easy with USB (2 x 2) computer connectivity. It’s a straightforward way to get audio in and out of a Mac or PC without adding extra boxes—perfect for quick recording, playback, and practical show prep.
