Does anyone use either before bed?  I'm leaning towards casein because I've heard ZMA knocks you out.  I work for a fire department and can't really afford to be a hard sleeper.  If it matters, routine is chest/tris - back/bis - legs - cardio - rest - repeat.  Also, I use whey post workout, is it alright to mix the proteins?

I use to have ZMA before bed with some tribulus, damn I slept well and even made small gains. Nothing much but I can tell you from my own personal experience it worked for me.

As for you routine, well it's up to you.

And yes you can mix proteins, I always mix weight gainer with whey and I love it.

Depending on who you ask, it increases testosterone levels or is nothing more than a multivitamin.  It's also the supplement that Barry Bonds credited for his sudden growth spurt.

zma is more for bulking.  A good plain casein is recommended for cutting.
