The ME-500 personal mixer’s intuitive hands on controls and crisp visual display make it easy for musicians to quickly build and control their own monitor mixes. With plug ‘n’ play setup and self sufficient musicians, ME-500 is also a massive time saver for the audio engineer.
ME-500 is ideal for keeping onstage sound levels under control and speeding up sound checks in a wide variety of live environments, from touring bands to orchestral performances and houses of worship. The ME-500 is also a smart, cost effective choice for foldback mixing in the studio.
FEATURES
16 Channel personal mixer Plug ‘n’ play compatible with dLive, GLD, Qu and Aviom® A-Net 16 Compatible with Digico, Yamaha, Avid and other mixers via ME-U hub Connect any number of ME devices to a system Mix and match ME-500 and ME-1 devices Can be powered via PoE or external PSU (included) Stereo headphone outputs on 3.5mm and ¼” jacks ¼” TRS mono balanced line out for connection to stage monitor or IEM transmitter
Simple & Powerful ME-500 is designed to give musicians powerful, detailed control over their monitor sound, without the distraction of complex menus and clutter. The rotary control beneath the display navigates and controls most functions and, together with the dimmable, backlit keys – including dedicated Solo and Mute controls – and display, makes it easy to find your way around ME-500, even in the dark. Each ME-500 can store and recall 8 user presets, so mixes can be saved for different songs, musicians or shows. Presets and whole configurations can be saved to USB for archiving or swapping between ME-500s.
Plug ‘n’ Play Setup With ME-500 there’s no time-consuming configuration of individual units. The first 16 mono / stereo channels and / or mixes assigned from the mixer will be automatically mapped to ME-500’s 16 select keys, so it’s fast and simple to deploy personal mixers in pressured situations such as festivals.
Build quality Designed in the UK and built to Allen & Heath’s zero compromise standards, the ME-500 is tough enough for the rigours of touring. Add the peace of mind factor of locking EtherCon connectors and you have a mixer that’s ready for whatever you throw at it.
Sound Pedigree We know that the quality of their monitors has a profound effect on a musician’s performance and on their enjoyment of the show. ME-500 continues Allen & Heath’s long-standing tradition of exceptional audio quality, delivering 16 channels of clean, uncoloured sound. The headphone amp design delivers plenty of power, complemented by ME-500’s built-in limiter to protect performers’ ears from unexpected spikes in levels.
Compatible with Allen & Heath, Aviom®, DiGiCo, Yamaha, Avid and more… When a personal mixing system sounds this good you want everyone to hear it, so we’ve made it possible for ME-500 to interface with most digital audio systems. If you’re using one of our own digital mixers or swapping out older Aviom® A-Net 16 units, ME-500 is compatible right out of the box. If you’re using other digital mixers you’ll need to add a ME-U hub fitted with a Dante, MADI, Waves or EtherSound module.
Scalable Whether you’re working with a soloist, a full orchestra or more, ME has you covered. There is no limit to the number of ME personal mixers you can add to a system, plus you’re free to mix and match ME-1s and ME-500s, so everyone can enjoy great monitors. Secure EtherCon connectors allow ME-500s to be daisy-chained, or deployed in a star topplogy using the ME-U or an off-the-shelf PoE switch.
8 user presets Levels, pan, mutes and key assignments can all be stored and recalled at the touch of a button.
Presets for different bands and application scenarios can be conveniently copied to USB key or the whole configuration saved. Ideal for archiving or quick transferring to other units.
Free standing or surface mounted ME-500 can be used standalone or mounted on the top of a mic stand. There’s also an optional bracket available (part number AB8999) for mounting the mixer on the side of a mic stand.
Just picked up the HDJ-F10 wireless headphones and I’m seriously impressed. Sound is crisp with deep bass, and the ultra-low latency wireless is perfect for DJing. Build quality feels solid and they’re super comfortable for long sessions. Totally worth it!

Great advise.
Talked to the staff via phone who advised me on a cheaper and a better suited cover to the SL1200. Really happy with choice of product and (for my needs) a better alternative cover than what I originally was going to order. Great service! However the 2 covers were stacked when packaged and took 20 minutes of separating and stress of breaking. Just a thought for packers when sending. However 5 star product and phone service!

Absolutely Loving My Denon DJ Prime 4+
The team at Mix Foundation were awesome to deal with. From the moment I walked in, they were friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely excited about helping me find the right gear.
The Prime 4+ is a fully standalone 4-deck DJ controller powered by Engine DJ, it gives you complete creative freedom without needing a laptop. Just fit a SATA drive and have all your music available directly on the device.
The vibrant 10.1-inch multi-touch screen is incredibly responsive, making track browsing, waveform editing, and FX control feel intuitive and fluid. One of its standout features is Wi-Fi streaming support, giving you instant access to services like Apple Music, Amazon Music, Beatport, TIDAL, and SoundCloud Go+ right from the controller.
Another feature I love is the onboard FX, which are high quality and versatile, with sweeping filters, echo, delay, and reverb, all easily customisable. The stem separation is simply mind-blowing, letting you isolate vocals, drums, or instruments with a tap. The Prime 4+ a powerhouse for DJs of all levels! I had my partner rocking on the device within 15 minutes and she pulled off a stunning mix using just stems.
Overall I am very happy with the decision to purchase the Denon product. It just made more sense, from a price vs features point of view and I'm having lots of fun...reliving my youth and getting back into mixing...love it!

Crisp and Clean
Definitely the most expensive unit in my set-up. But it has elevated everything running through it. I do not DJ, and the only reason I went for DJ mixers in the first place was 1: I needed a phono preamp and 2: I needed an equaliser. High-end audio gear do not have good equalisers. You are lucky to get treble and bass control. I NEED MID. This beast has a 4 band equaliser! More control over my mids then I ever had. But the sound quality? Crisp and clean. Listening to my records in a new light. These phono pre amps do not disappoint. I get 4 separate inputs for my two turn tables, one for my digital, and even one just for my cassette. But the Sound card. Wow. Running digital straight to the mixer sounds amazing. And I can even record off it. And I have been able to rig up to a new MilkDrop 3, so now all my analog music gets this amazing backdrop of colours to go with it. Brings me back to the good old days with Winamp. Messing around with the crunch setting has also been a lot of fun, feels like a guitar amp with the overdrive, and you can even run an effects pedal loop! Also, having a separate EQ for the booth out makes getting that sound perfect, even easier. Three thumbs up!

No compromise detail
Early days but it's living up to expectation of extracting all the information out of the grove with its line contact Shibata stylus. It's the modern equivalent of the Shure V15 III with the MicroRidge stylus.
Wide soundstage, detailed delivery, strong bass, amazing mid range.
Certainly, unforgiving and won't take prisoners of lesser vinyl records.
Good modern premium Moving Magnet cartridge.

This is my second pair of HDJ headphones, I was running worh Technics headphones for years then got my 1st HDJ pair 7 years ago.
Superb sound from these. sennheiser are way to flimsy for me, the Pioneers have held up really good. So much so Im on my second pair. I take my hat off to Pioneer for thos series of headphone.
