General

The PA28 by Allen & Heath is a stereo live mixer that has everything on board that you need for professional results. It can easily be adjusted to your application, as it's highly versatile. Bands as well as schools, theatres and rental companies will be well served by this mixer. As it uses the same technology as the renowned (more expensive) ML and GL series by Allen & Heath, it has a natural, full and transparent sound.

Clear Layout of the PA28 Mixer

The uncomplicated layout of the PA28 will make you feel right at home! All connectors are mounted neatly together, and the 4-band tone control that you can find on each channel are a mighty tool to allow for a professional sound. The built-in digital effects enable you to adjust the timbre, for a complete room sound or live recording.

Extensive Options of the Allen & Heath PA28

This live mixer features two double stereo channels that each have their own gain, so that you can create a mix of the four stereo signals. Per two stereo signals, a 2-part tone control, 4 AUX sends, a mute button with LED and a 100mm fader with PFL button are provided. The top two stereo channels can be sent directly to the master, providing additional effect returns. For the XLR main outputs you can use a combination of LR (stereo), L+R (double mono), Aux 1 and Aux 2. Together with the accurate 4-part tone control, the option to connect external effects gear, and the LED indicators for signal strength, this makes the PA28 highly versatile.

Allen & Heath PA28 Live Stereo Mixer

Wrote the following about Allen & Heath PA28 Live Stereo Mixer
De PA28 is een geweldige mixer. Eenvoudig maar voldoende mogelijkheden voor serieus geluidswerk. Een groot voordeel is de 4 bands parametrische eq op de uitgangen. Deze ruist veel minder dan de grafische eq's op vele andere mixers en je kan er prima een PA mee tunen. De kanaal eq is ook goed doordacht. Mid is volledig parametrisch, laag en hoog hebben vaste q waarden, Het 250hz filter is zeer handig.
De mic preamps zijn zeer goed. Weinig ruis en phantom is per kanaal aan te schakelen. De effectunit is oke en prima bruikbaar maar geen topper. De effect parameters zijn goed gekozen en via midi te editen.

Voor het bedrag een geweldig goede mixer die zeer overzichtelijk is en echt goed klinkt.

Ik heb er eentje in bezit gehad en daar met veel plezier mee gewerkt.

Wow! Zo beschrijf ik deze PA Mixer met één woord. Sinds kort hebben wij deze op school aangeschaft (Waar o.a. ik licht en geluid regel) en hij werkt perfect! Zeker te weten een aanrader. Goede prijs/kwaliteit verhouding. O.a. de FX functie werkt perfect en heb er geen op of aanmerkingen verder over. Buiten het fijt dat hij goed werkt, heeft hij ook nog eens een goede gebruikersinterface. Alles werkt gewoon goed. Echt een aanrader dus!
