The original Xone:92 was celebrated for the distinctive output of its analog architecture, Xone:VCF, multimode filtering, and flexible 4-band sonic contouring. The Xone:92 Mk2 perfects the iconic Xone:VCF twofold. Optimizing the control curve and refining the VCF’s tapers significantly increases the precision of its frequency position, with a detailed resolution to nail your sound shaping. Moreover, the Xone:92 Mk2 draws from Allen & Heath’s Xone:96 mixer to introduce silent switching to the Xone:VCF — a lauded mixing tool that makes sound design, expression, switching filters, and mixing a seamless, unobtrusive experience. The Xone:92 Mk2’s mini innoFADER Pro crossfader was painstakingly developed and custom-tuned to match classic P&G-style faders, ensuring greater accuracy across an expanded, smoother range of mixing.

What’s more, the phono preamps were updated to utilize the enhanced topology that the limited-edition Mk1 model used. These RIAA preamps reinforce the aural aesthetics that defined the original while bolstering the sweet spots to faithfully preserve and reproduce every nuance of vinyl-only DJ sets. Finally, the Xone:92 Mk2 implements a Clean Feed bus for its dual mic inputs, adding switches to the mixer’s rear panel that let you toggle whether the microphone signal is routed to both the Booth and Record outputs or skips them altogether.

While the Mk2’s expanded performance capabilities owe to new features and components, the 20-year tenure of the Xone:92 Mk2’s predecessor gave Allen & Heath plenty of time to discern which updates, upgrades, and enhancements would support the mixer’s continued rein without sacrificing what’s made it so special to DJs around the world.

• Input improvements: across its four channels, input levels and source-matching are seamlessly attenuated and optimized
• Upgraded output: improvements to the factory-trimmed stereo channel mitigate distortion more effectively than ever before
• Rebuilt selector: the Mk2’s 3-way switch for choosing from the three global Channel Curve fader profiles makes for solid selections, with satisfying tactility
• Enhanced switches: the flush-mount filter, crossfade-shape selector, and the Ducking 2-way toggles of the MIC/RTN channels have all been improved for greater accuracy and endurance
