Description
The Allen & Heath ZED-14 is a versatile 14-channel analog mixer designed for small bands, studios, and live venues, featuring six mono mic/line inputs with DuoPre preamps, inserts, and a 3-band swept-mid EQ. It adds four stereo channels for keyboards and playback sources, all controlled with smooth 100mm faders for precise mixing. A built-in 2-in/2-out USB interface enables easy stereo recording or playback with flexible routing options from the main mix or aux sends. Its four auxes provide ample routing for monitors and external effects, supporting both live and studio workflows. The mixer also includes balanced XLR mains, mono output, alt out, headphone monitoring, and dedicated stereo returns. Compact, rugged, and clean-sounding, the ZED-14 delivers professional control and connectivity in an accessible format.

Multi-Bus Routing
With four aux sends, the ZED-14 lets you push different mixes to monitors, effects processors, or external gear independently, providing flexible routing options for both live and studio setups.

USB I/O Flexibility
The ZED-14’s 2-in / 2-out USB interface allows you to record your mix to a Mac or Windows computer while also sending stereo playback back into the desk, giving you seamless integration between live performance and in-the-box recording.
