Allen & Heath Qu-5 36-Channel / 12-Bus Digital Mixer with 16+1 Motorized Faders
Borrowing heavily from the popular Qu series, the Allen & Heath Qu-5 is a professional-grade digital mixer with powerful XCVI processing, updated FX, and Everything I/O connectivity. There's also a 7" capacitive touchscreen, channel strip displays, customizable layers, extra SoftKeys, and SD-card recording.
The Qu-5 offers a channel count of 32 mono and two stereo channels for a total of 36 inputs and 6 mono/linkable aux, and 6 stereo aux/group. The mixer is rack-mountable (rack ears optional) and combines high performance audio processing and professional features with ease of use and hands-on control.
Audio
- Updated microphone preamps and high-performance 96 kHz AD/DA converters combine to deliver pristine audio to and from the XCVI core, preserving every detail of the source.
Control
- Every channel now features a channel display, showing channel name, channel type, or socket number, a chromatic channel meter for at-a-glance level information, and a new touchscreen, which accommodates a completely redesigned user interface.
Gain Assistant for Faster Setups
- Adjusting the gain for each channel might not be the most thrilling task, and it can take up a lot of your setup time when you have multiple channels to manage.
- Qu’s Gain Assistant streamlines this process by quickly and precisely setting the ideal gain level for one or more input channels, while continuously monitoring levels during the performance to avoid any unwanted peaks or surprises.
Feedback Assistant
- Qu’s easy to use Feedback Assistant automatically identifies and removes problematic frequencies with up to 16 filters per output, allowing you to mix with confidence and put feedback worries behind you.
Add-Ons to Take Your Mix to the Next Level
- Proven on countless world-tours with international artists, DEEP Processing and RackExtra FX from our award-winning dLive digital mixing system are now available within your Qu.
Automatic Mic Mixer
- Qu’s 32 channel Automatic Mic Mixer (AMM) makes it the perfect choice for mixing conferences, panel talks, and TV shows. It’s fully integrated in the mixer, with no extra latency, so you don’t need to route the audio to an internal DSP rack or external plug-in system.
