Allen & Heath 30 ZED POWER 1000
CONNECTING TO A COMPUTER
USB lead type A to B
USB Audio Interface
The ZED is equipped with a stereo bi-directional USB 1.1 compliant audio CODEC. It is fully
compliant with USB 2 ports and uses standard Windows and MAC Core Audio Drivers. In
other words, plug it in and your computer will find it and be able to transfer audio to and
from the ZED USB device.
You will need some form of audio software running on your computer to be able to record
and play back what you record, but on a basic level, you can use your computers media
player to play straight to the ZED device.
Just a couple of points to look out for:
Windows XP/Vista: When you plug in your ZED USB interface to your computer, if the
volume level is low or inaudible, check the device volume in Control Panel/Sounds and Au-
dio Devices/Volume. Set the volume to High.
Windows 7: At present, Windows 7 treats the USB audio device as a microphone source
instead if a line input, so set the device volume level much lower, we found setting to 3 is
ideal.
