Allen & Heath ZEDi-10
May 20th 2020This is a good little mixer. I love the built in interface, and the hi z inputs. I've been running a Lewitt MTP 550 through it, and the gain needs to be at just about 100% to get a decent signal. Not sure if it's a function of the pre-amp or the mic itself. Good thing that even with the gain knob turned that far up, it still remains quiet. Not a huge fan of the plastic trim around the perimeter. I would have preferred sliders instead of knobs for the channel main. But, those aren't good enough reasons to not consider this mixer. I'd still recommend it.
