Allen & Heath 30 ZED Sixty 10FX & 14FX User Guide
CONNECTING A ZED TO PRO TOOLS 9(& UP) ON A WINDOWS PC
On a Windows system, Pro Tools 9 and (higher) support third party audio interfaces only in conjunction with
ASIO drivers. Pro Tools won’t recognize WDM devices such as the standard USB Audio Codec used by the
ZED mixers. Since the ZED USB mixers have no dedicated ASIO driver, you will need a third party driver.
We recommend using ASIO4ALL, a popular, hardware independent, low latency ASIO driver for WDM audio
devices. ASIO4ALL is compatible with all Windows systems, it’s free for the end user and is currently available
for download here: www.asio4all.com
Download and install ASIO4ALL.
Connect your ZED mixer to your PC via USB and power on the mixer.
Run Pro Tools and create a new session. Choose a sample rate compatible with the ZED USB inter-
face (44.1kHz or 48kHz) and select 16 Bit Depth.
Open ‘Setup / Playback Engine’ and select ASIO4ALL
v2 as the Current Engine, then click OK.
Open ‘Setup / Hardware’ and click the ‘Launch Setup
App’ button. The ASIO4ALL control panel is dis-
played. ASIO4ALL will default to the USB Audio
CODEC any time a ZED mixer is connected to the
computer. The device state shown by the small icons
should be Active, as pictured.
If needed, select the USB Audio CODEC and use
the slider to adjust the ASIO buffer size. Smaller
buffer size means lower latency. However, if you
hear crackles or audio becomes distorted, you may
need to increase the buffer size. Please note any
change in the driver settings is likely to require Pro
Tools to restart. Refer to the ASIO4ALL v2 Instruc-
tion Manual for a description of the advanced set-
tings and troubleshooting of the driver.
Close the ASIO4ALL control panel and click OK to
close the Playback Engine window.
Open ‘Setup / IO’ and click the Default button in the
Input, Output and Bus tabs. This will discard your
previous Pro Tools settings and create a ‘USB Audio
CODEC 1-2’ Stereo Input, its mono sub-paths, and a
‘USB Audio CODEC 1-2’ Stereo Output. The Audi-
tion Paths and Default Output Bus will also default
to ‘USB Audio CODEC 1-2’.
