The British manufacturer received positive reactions to the new colour scheme, which was first adopted by the Xone:4D, launched in June 2008, followed by the Xone:22 in January 2009.
Consequently, the Xone:1D and Xone:2D MIDI controllers will be manufactured in the new colour scheme along with the Xone:4D to complete the :D Series, and the Xone:42 USB DJ mixer will join the Xone:22 DJ mixer in grey as Allen & Heath's entry-level mixers.
The change is purely cosmetic, and there are no alterations to the products' design or performance. The grey versions are filtering into distribution now and will begin to appear in retail outlets around the globe, says the company.
