Allen & Heath Xone:3D Universal DJ Controller

Combines a high performance DJ mixer, a top spec multichannel USB soundcard, and a comprehensive MIDI control surface.

Designed in conjunction with some of the world's most cutting edge DJ/producers, the Allen & Heath Xone:3D is a unique performance DJ controller that for the first time enables the seamless integration of computer based digital media into the traditional DJ workspace.

The mixer section is based on the award winning Xone:92 and features multi input stereo channels, 3 band total kill EQ, 2 stereo returns and high quality, dual rail channel faders and VCA crossfader. The latest generation of the legendary Allen & Heath voltage controlled filters (VCF) and an assignable LFO with tap tempo are also provided. Each channel has two stereo FX sends: these can be used with external equipment such as effects units, samplers etc., or FX1 can be routed to the USB audio system and sent to the PC.

The dedicated MIDI section either side of the mixer has a total of eight 60mm faders, 16 center detented rotary controls, 10 rotary encoders with push switches, 32 switches (8 with illumination) and two high quality custom jog wheels with switched navigation feature. Filter controls, cue buttons, filter sweep controls and crossfader are all incorporated into the MIDI system, making for a colossal 105 different MIDI control messages possible from the XONE:3D. An automatic beat detection circuit synchronizes the MIDI clock to the main mix or the FX2 mix buss, and displays the tempo on the LED screen.

The Allen & Heath designed USB soundcard uses individual pro audio 24 bit stereo converters, offering superb sound quality and low latency. USB audio can be treated as any other analogue source and routed to the mixers stereo channels. Up stream audio and Mode selection (either 3 stereo sends and one return, or two send and two returns) are set using a simple computer desktop utility.

Progressive DJs Chris Liebing and Richie Hawtin have been consultants and beta testers during development of the Xone:3D.
