The ZED 428 is a 28 channel (24 mono + 4 stereo) analogue mixing desk with 4 groups, 6 aux, 2 matrix, left, right and mono outputs. This is the main audio desk used in the studio
Specifications
- 24 mono inputs
- 4 stereo inputs
- 4 mono groups (can be configured as 2 stereo groups)
- 3 main outputs (LRM)
- 6 auxiliary outputs (2 pre, 2 post, 2 switchable)
- 2 matrix outputs (mixs groups and LRM)
- 4-band eq on each mono channel (sweepable mids)
- Phantom power selectable on each mono channel
Usage
Studio
Being the biggest, newest, shinyest audio desk we have, it is naturally used as our studio desk.
OBs
This desk is often used for the larger OBs, mainly due to the unavailability of other mixers in the station. To aid in this (and to increase the life of the desk) there is a flight case for it. Please use it. In addition, the Technical Director must be informed if this desk is leaving the station for any reason.
Notes
USB
There is a USB-B port located on the desk. Without other software on the connected computer, the desk is configured as a recording/listening device - allowing for recording from the desk or playing out to the desk (possibly at the same time). Other options are possibly avaliable with the right software, but I have yet to check.
Software
Included with the desk was a copy of some software that I've forgotten the name of - the CD should be somewhere within the technical stuff...
Other desks on campus
Bandsoc also has one of these desks, which we have borrowed on occasion (Woodstock 2013). Just useful to know if a second one is needed
