We've built a lot of mixers the last 40 years or so and
we still get a huge buzz out of doing it well. It's an
unbeatable feeling to know that at any time of day or
night, right across the globe, there is an Allen & Heath
mixer out there working hard, sounding great and making
life a little easier for the guy at the controls.
Back in the early 70s we were hand-building consoles in
a tiny factory in London for elite bands like Pink Floyd
and The Who. These days Allen & Heath customers are
spread across almost every environment imaginable,
including touring, theatres, churches, nightclubs, TV and
radio stations, recording studios and countless other
places where great sound matters.
There are plenty of companies making mixers, but we
believe we've got a very special selling point: we're
truly passionate about what we do. This isn't just
something that gets reflected in glossy brochures, it's
something you hear when you pick up the phone to us, and
you hear it most of all every time you use an Allen &
Heath mixer. Every console has its own distinct sound,
and that sound tells you a lot about the people who
created it. Listen to a bunch of engineers talking about
Allen & Heath mixers and you'll probably hear words like
'warmth', 'depth' and 'fullness' used a lot. Those
characteristics don't come about by accident - we tweak,
tease, experiment and compare over many months to perfect
each console we design, getting the very best from every
component. We only introduce a new product when we're
convinced that it sounds fabulous!
We often get asked how we manage to sell our products at
such a competitive price. A lot of people are looking for
'the catch'. So how do we offer so much bang for the
buck? There's no magic formula, just a lot of hard work.
Our designers are geniuses when it comes to finding
innovative ways to build the best for less. We have built
incredibly strong relationships with our suppliers over
the years. Because we trade honestly and with integrity,
our suppliers have the confidence to invest in the latest
processes and equipment, which lets them offer us a
better deal.
It doesn't matter how you got your Allen & Heath mixer -
once you're part of the family, we'll support you until
the end. Whether you've just bought a brand new iLive
digital mixing system or you're borrowing a 1973 Mod1
that your cousin picked up at a garage sale, we'll go out
of our way to help you to get the most from your console.
Got a question? Just contact us - you'll get fast,
knowledgeable answers from real people with an interest
in what you're doing. And we're always building up this
website with all the stuff we hope you'll find useful,
like video tutorials, cue sheets, block diagrams, etc. If
you don't find what you need, tell us!
At our factory in beautiful Cornwall at the
south-western tip of the UK, we have an exceptionally
dedicated team of production employees, many of whom have
been with us for 15 years or more, who take
responsibility for providing our customers with high
quality products. Together we've turned a little niche
company into a global success story. We hope you'll be
part of our future
