Key Features
The Allen & Heath ML3000 is a small footprint, affordable VCA equipped dual function live sound
console providing many of the features of its larger brothers the ML4000 and ML5000. It can be
quickly configured for front-of-house (FOH) or stage monitor mixing. As one console suitable for
both applications it is equally well suited to installation, rental and touring. It offers an IO capability
and feature set that satisfies the latest requirements of live sound engineering, in particular the
growing number of inputs and outputs for multi-speaker house and monitor systems, demands of
stereo in-ear monitoring, 3 speaker LCR imaging, advanced grouping and automation. The design
ensures on-the-road durability, a clear layout for easy walk up and go operation, and no-
compromise audio performance.
