A&E Specifications

The mixer shall be a compact and portable analog mixer with 4
mono and 2 stereo input channels mixing to a stereo Main Mix
output. The mixer shall weigh no more than 2.2kg (4.85lbs).

Each mono input channel shall have an XLR Microphone connector
and Line level quarter-inch jack connector and shall be equipped
with High Pass Filter and 3-band equaliser circuit

Stereo input channels shall use quarter-inch jack connectors, and
shall have a fixed 2-band EQ.

All XLR Microphone inputs shall have the ability to power
Condenser Microphones requiring 48 Volt Phantom Power. This
shall be switchable and have a red LED to indicate activation.

There shall be two high-impedance jack inputs on mono channels,
which can handle a normal line level or a low level input directly
from a guitar pickup, allowing instruments such as guitars to be
plugged straight into the mixer without the need for a DI box. There
shall be an additional two jack inputs for normal line level signals,
activated via a pad button.

XLR Mic input characteristics shall conform to a Gain Min/Max of
6dB to 60dB with a maximum Input Level of 13dBu.

Quarter-inch jack Line input characteristics shall conform to a Gain
Min/Max of -14dB to 40dB with a maximum Input Level of 18dBu.

There shall be an effects out on a quarter-inch jack connector.

The mixer shall have a 4in/4out USB Audio Interface which will
allow for a total channel count of ten. The audio interface shall
operate at 24 bit/96kHz as standard, be class compliant for Mac and
iOS devices and be compatible with Windows.

The mixer surface shall include independent rotary control for each
input channels gain, level and mix. Each channel should have an
individual Pan control and a [PFL] switch to route to the headphone
output. An LED shall indicate when a [PFL] channel is active.

The Headphone output should use a quarter-inch jack connector
with a rotary to control output level.

The L&R outputs shall have XLR connectors and will be controlled
via a mix output fader. Level indication shall be via a stereo eight
segment LED display.

There shall be a stereo monitor output on RCA connectors and a
separate AUX output on quarter inch jack socket.

It shall have a built in power supply accepting AC mains voltages of
100~240V, 50/60 Hz, 12W max via an earthed 3-pin IEC C6 male
connector mounted on the rear chassis.

A switch shall be provided near the mains inlet to isolate the mixer
from the incoming mains supply.

Recommended operating temperature for the mixer shall be 0 to
35 degrees Celsius.

The unit shall be the Allen & Heath ZEDi-10.
