MIX WIZARD

MULTI-PURPOSE COMPACT CONSOLES

KILLER FEATURES

Now in its 3rd generation, the legendary MixWizard range builds on its market leading status by adding a new

mic preamp design and advanced grounding scheme, which both further enhance sonic quality. Other improvements

include individual phantom power switches, channel signal indicators, lamp socket and backup supply capability.

Internal configuration options for channel aux sends and direct output are now on pluggable jumpers for user

convenience, and the mixer is presented in a stylish new package.

Of course, the range retains its traditionally strong blend of professional features, including an all-metal chassis, individual circuit boards,

nutted rotary controls, smooth 100mm faders, LED metering, as well as 6 aux sends, 4 band EQ, digital FX and expansion capability,

which it inherits from its big brothers in the large format ranges. The sonic purity of the MixWizard has been further enhanced to retain its

market leading credentials – a true professional in the world of compact mixing.

High Performance Preamp

The mic preamp is probably the most

important stage in the console

’

s signal

path and its performance is often the

measure of the quality of the console.

MixWizard

mixers have a newly-designed

preamp, developed from our top-end

range of ML and GL consoles. The preamp

provides very low noise and distortion, a

wide yet smooth gain law, and extended

headroom for dealing with the most

demanding sources.

4 band EQ

Provides clean, responsive and accurate

equalisation control normally only found

in larger format desks. 4 extended range

overlapping bands - 2 with centre

frequency sweeps - let you compensate

for microphone and auditorium

frequency responses, add sparkle and

presence to voices and instruments,

control sibilance or add colour.

All 4 bands give up to 15dB boost or cut

and have centre detents.

Maximum Flexibility

As with our large format large sound

consoles, the WZ

14:4:2 can work as a

Front of House or Monitor mixer. In FOH

mode, the 4 groups with inserts, long throw

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 output. 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.

To allow maximum flexibility, it is possible

to operate the console in dual mode where

some auxes can be used as monitor

mixes and some sub-grouping can be

used along with the main LR outputs. This

allows the engineer to run FOH sound and

some Monitor mixes from the same console.

Additionally, and unusually on a small

format mixer, 2 matrix outputs are also

provided - the flexibility and benefits of a

matrix cannot be underestimated in

today’s console applications!

For WZ

16:2 and WZ

12:2, extra flexibility is

provided by our unique third master fader,

which can be switched to provide either

an L+R mono feed for centre or fill

speaker, a sub bass feed mixed from the

channel aux 6 sends, and with master

fader right where it is needed - next to

the LR masters

6 auxiliary sends

Each of the 6 aux mixes has its own

master level rotary control and

impedance balanced TRS outputs. The

console has a clever monitoring system

to listen to aux outputs in mono or in

stereo pairs. Auxes 1-2 are routed pre fade

for monitors; auxes 3-4 are switchable

pre or post fade for monitors, effects or

additional recording or zone feeds; and

auxes 5-6 are routed post fader for effects

and aux-fed sub. The aux settings can be

changed by replugging internal jumpers.

Digital FX (WZ

:16 and 12 only)

2 stereo effects engines are provided

operating in either single or dual mode,

providing 16 reverb, echo and other

effects editable via MIDI. External effects

can even be mixed in through the same

return channel, thus saving precious inputs.

Expansion option

A unique feature for such a compact

mixer is the ability to expand the input

capacity via the Sys-Link 2 option, which

connects the mixer to another ALLEN&HEATH

Sys-Link compatible console. The auxiliary

and output busses are linked into the

‘master’ console, while PFL / AFL circuits

are also connected, allowing the engineer

to monitor both surfaces.

Stereos

On WZ

14:4:2 and WZ

12:2, two dual

stereo channels with TRS connectors and

independent gain controls are included

for FX returns and stereo line sources.

One stereo input can feed straight to LR,

so providing extra returns. The stereo

channels are furnished with 2 band EQ

and can be routed to all 6 auxiliary sends.

On the WZ

20S, 8 dual stereo input

channels are provided, each with TRS jack

‘A’ and XLR ‘B’ inputs. These may be mixed

together into the channel or mode switched

to provide up to 16 independent sources

to the mix - ideal for multi-stereo keyboard

and recording applications.
