Allen & Heath XONE:23C

The Xone:23C is a compact DJ mixer that masterfully blends traditional analogue mixing with the power of digital DJing. Designed for DJs who want hands-on control without sacrificing modern connectivity, it features a built-in 4-stereo channel 96kHz 24-bit USB soundcard for seamless playback and recording with DJ software.

At its core is the legendary Xone Voltage Control Filter (VCF) system, offering expressive low-pass and high-pass filtering, frequency sweeps, and resonance control-from subtle shaping to wild effects. The dual stereo inputs per channel allow up to four sources to be mixed simultaneously, while a dedicated FX loop integrates external effects gear through the filter path for further sonic creativity.

Each channel includes a 3-band 'total kill' isolator EQ for aggressive frequency shaping, ideal for dynamic mixing. Balanced XLR main outputs, a separate booth output with volume control, and record output ensure professional-grade connectivity. X:LINK enables MIDI and power connection to Xone:K controllers over Ethernet, expanding control while saving USB ports.

With robust build quality, flexible routing, premium sound, and support for DVS, Traktor Pro 3, and Virtual DJ, the Xone:23C is a powerful tool for DJs who want the best of both analogue and digital domains.
