Allen & Heath MixWizard4 14:4 Mixer

The Allen & Heath MixWizard4 14:4 Mixer is a compact console designed for professional live sound mixing. With individual circuit cards, potentiometers nutted to the panel for absolute strength, steel chassis, and no compromise circuit design, the MixWizard4 14:4 ensures the finest sonic performance.

The Allen & Heath MixWizard4 14:4 Mixer is designed as a uniquely versatile live sound mixer, and is equally at home at Front of House, on Monitors, or doubling up to fill both roles at once. The MixWizard4 14:4 features the acclaimed 4 band EQ with 2 sweepable mids, high quality 100mm faders, 6 aux sends, 12 segment bargraph metering and Allen & Heath's unique QCC connector system for easy desktop, rack or flightcase mounting. This 4th generation MixWizard console now has the option to fit a multichannel USB interface with high quality 16 channel soundcard for easy multitrack recording and 2-track playback. If you’re looking for professional grade, all-purpose analogue mixers in a compact, rack mountable frame, the Allen & Heath MixWizard4 14:4 Mixer continues to set the bar.

FoH / Monitor / Dual Mode
In FoH Mode, the 4 groups with inserts, 100mm faders and XLR outputs can be routed and panned to the LR mix for flexible sub-mixing. The main LR mix has inserts, separate left and right faders, and XLR outputs to feed the main speaker system. EQ and signal processing can easily be inserted on group and main outputs. In Monitor Mode, the aux mixes are routed to the group and LR faders, inserts and XLR outputs. The AFL and PFL system is switched to the Mono output to provide an engineer’s ‘wedge’ output. In essence, it’s a perfect 6-mix monitor console with additional outputs available from the group busses via the aux master controls. In Dual Mode some auxes can be used as monitor mixes and some sub-grouping can be used along with the main LR outputs, allowing the engineer to run FoH sound and some Monitor mixes from the same console.
