-
The Allen & Heath ZED-18 is a compact 18-channel analog mixer offering versatile I/O and a user-friendly workflow for use in home and project studio recording, houses of worship, and live sound reinforcement. The 10 mono channels feature Neutrik XLR mic and 1/4" line inputs, DuoPre preamps with phantom power and bountiful gain, 1/4" insert points, and 3-band EQ, while the four stereo channels have 1/4" inputs and 2-band EQ. All channels are equipped with long-throw 100mm faders, solo and mute buttons, and independent aux send knobs.
The four aux sends are ideal for routing to floor monitors and outboard time-based effects. A USB 1.1 port delivers 2-channel send and return capabilities via a Mac or Windows computer. There are stereo and mono main outputs in addition to alt and headphone outputs, and dual 12-segment LED meters that clearly indicate your master output level. Patch additional stereo sources into the RCA stereo return and 2-track inputs, then route them to the stereo bus, or mix them into the stereo channels. The stereo RCA output is handy for recording your mix to an external device such as a cassette deck or computer soundcard.10 Mono and 4 Stereo Channels 10 x XLR Mic Inputs with Phantom Power 10 x 1/4" Line Inputs 2- or 3-Band EQ per Channel Inserts on Mono Channels & Stereo Bus Long-Throw 100mm Faders Stereo USB I/O Main, Monitor & Headphone Outputs Aux Sends & Returns, 2-Track RCA I/O Dual 12-Segment Main Output Meters

Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. will the auto focus button on the lens trigger the Ursa mini to focus? Also will the record button trigger the Ursa to start recording?
A: According to Blackmagic, they would like to support this lens but do not a timetable as to when that might occur.
Q: 2. If I have this connected to an Blackmagic URSA G2 and an ATEM switcher, can I adjust the zoom and focus on this lens through the ATEM switcher?
A: With the Canon CN-E 18-80mm T4.4 COMPACT-SERVO Cinema Zoom Lens (EF Mount) (B&H# CAE1880EF) mounted on the Blackmagic Design URSA Broadcast G2 Camera (B&H# BLURSABCG2) it would be possible to focus using the autofocus button on a switcher like this: Blackmagic Design ATEM Television Studio Pro 4K Live Production Switcher (B&H# BLATWEMTSP4K) https://bhpho.to/3x85fFb Whether or not it will work with your ATEM switcher will depend on the one you are using.
Q: 3. Will it work with eos r5
A: The Canon CN-E 18-80mm could be mounted to the EOS R5 camera with the Canon Mount Adapter EF-EOS R (SKU: CAMAEFRF), although this lens is a super-35mm lens and will vignette when using the full sensor of the EOS R5 camera. There may be a need for external power as well, for powering the servo-zoom.
Q: 4. Does this lens have a tripod mount or can one be purchased for it?
A: This lens does have a 1/4 -20 tripod mount on the bottom of the servo unit.
Q: 5. Will this work with BMPCC 6k?
A: Yes it will. This lens is compatible with the Pocket Cinema Camera 6K.
Q: 6. Is it actually 18-80mm based on the Super 35 C300 sensor or more like 27-120 mm?
A: The crop factor is 1.53x. So the 18-80 = 27.54-122.4full frame of view equivalent.Dusty
Q: 7. Is this lens weather resistant like Canon L lenses?
A: Canon stated in the manual that the Canon CN-E 18-80mm lens is not weather sealed, but the lens mount has a rubber seal to help hold off dust and there is a ENG-Style, robust rubber sun-shade included.
Q: 8. Can you control the Canon CN-E 18-80mm zoom and focus with a LANC remote via the C100?
A: Sorry, no LANC control is listed as possible with this lens on any camera. On the C300, the camera can control the lens including zoom.
Q: 9. The 18-80 comes with the upper half of a lens support bracket, and the instructions say to use it with any 3rd party rod attachment. I have found no rod attachment that will match up to their support. Has anyone had luck attaching the Canon support to rods? The only solution I've seen is to replace it altogether with the Zacuto lens support for $170 and currently a 2-week backorder. Help?
A: The Zacuto Lens Support for Canon 18-80 is your best option, B&H # ZAZC18LS. On the day of this posting, February 12th 2018, it is actually in stock and ready to ship.https://bhpho.to/2EApqAE
Q: 10. Does this work with Canon Mount Adapter EF-EOS R 0.71x?
A: I can say that the combination of the Canon Mount Adapter EF-EOS R 0.71x and lens on an EOS R is not officially supported, as the mount adapter is intended to be used with the EOS C70, and the lens is designed for cameras with a super 35mm or APS-C sized sensors.
