No longer available at zZounds
The 4th generation of the industry-standard 19" mixer, this A&H board gives you 6 auxes, 100mm faders, 12-segment meters and 4-band EQ with 2 sweepable mids.

Designed as a uniquely versatile live sound mixer, Allen and Heath WZ4 14:4:2 is equally at home at Front of House, on Monitors, or doubling up to fill both roles at once. WZ4 14:4:2 features our acclaimed 4 band EQ with 2 sweepable mids, high quality 100mm faders, 6 aux sends, 12 segment bargraph metering and our 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 MixWizards continue to set the bar.

FoH / Monitor / Dual ModeIn 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 read more outputs, allowing the engineer to run FoH sound and some Monitor mixes from the same console.

Okay, I owned the first generation Mix Wiz for my 5 piece rock band and was very pleased with it. Two generations have come since, the Mix Wiz 3 and now 4. I was ready to upgrade and actually bought the Soundcraft FX 16:2 which was supposed to be comparable. It was not, MAYBE it is with my old A&H model, but I wanted better, so I took the Souncraft back and bought the A&H Mix Wiz 4. All I can say is it blew me away !. They say they have re-designed and upgraded the pre-amps. THEY HAVE !! Much more punch and headroom which is just what I was looking for, and the new digital effects have improved. EQ In/ out switch has been added. It is very sturdily built. This is truly a great board for a rock band needing lots of headroom and great sound quality.
