Classic analog sound with deeper control
The XONE:96 builds on the workflow and sound that made the Xone:92 a long-standing club favourite. Four stereo channels include Allen & Heath’s refined 4-band EQ system, helping you shape lows mids and highs with impressive accuracy during transitions and layered mixes. Two additional stereo return channels feature 3-band parametric EQ controls, opening up even more tonal flexibility for external effects or additional sources.
Alongside the EQ sections, the dual Xone:VCF filters provide the unmistakable analog filtering DJs expect from the Xone series. High-pass band-pass and low-pass modes are all available, while the CRUNCH control introduces harmonic distortion before the filter stage for more aggressive textures and movement.
Built for complex performance setups
If your setup goes beyond a pair of decks and a mixer, the XONE:96 gives you the connectivity to bring everything together cleanly. Two independent USB soundcards each provide six stereo inputs and outputs, making dual laptop sets and advanced routing straightforward. The mixer also supports Traktor Scratch Pro 3 straight away, helping DVS users integrate their preferred workflow without additional hardware.
On the rear panel, you’ll find dedicated stereo sends returns and a master insert for integrating external processors and effects units. Send 1 can switch to Hi-Z mode too, making it suitable for guitar pedals and instrument-level effects that are often difficult to incorporate into traditional DJ mixers.
Smooth transitions in demanding club environments
The XONE:96 is designed to support busy booth environments where fast handovers and back-to-back performances are common. Two independent headphone cue systems allow two DJs to monitor separately at the same time, helping transitions stay organised during long club nights and collaborative sets.
Dedicated booth outputs with integrated 3-band EQ also make a noticeable difference in challenging venues. Instead of relying entirely on the house monitoring setup, you can quickly tailor booth sound to suit the room and maintain clarity at high volumes. Combined with the mixer’s familiar layout, this makes the XONE:96 particularly easy to adapt to during live performances.
Reliable construction for regular touring use
Club mixers need to withstand constant transport heavy use and long operating hours. Allen & Heath designed the XONE:96 with durability in mind, using custom 60mm VCA channel faders that feel smooth balanced and consistent during detailed adjustments. This helps maintain precise level control across extended sets.
The crossfader section includes the widely used Innofader Mini complete with adjustable cut settings for tighter performance response. MIDI connectivity is available through both USB and 5-pin connections, while X-Link support allows direct integration with Xone:K series controllers without using additional laptop USB ports. For DJs using layered digital and analog rigs, this keeps setup time manageable and performance control within easy reach.
