FAQ

What is the difference between the pre-fade and post-fade Aux sends on the ZED12FX?
The two pre-fade Aux sends operate independently of the channel fader, ideal for monitor mixes. The post-fade Aux send follows the channel fader level, commonly used for effects returns.

Does the ZED12FX require additional software to use the USB interface?
No additional drivers are required for Mac or iOS; Windows users may need to install the Allen & Heath USB driver for full functionality. The interface streams CD-quality stereo audio bidirectionally.
