The Allen & Heath Qu-32 Digital Mixer is a 32-fader, 38-in / 28-out digital audio mixing console. The Qu-32 has key features such as total recall of settings (including faders and digitally controlled preamps), Qu-Drive integrated multi-track recorder, dSNAKE for remote I/O and personal monitoring, multi-channel USB streaming, Qu-Pad control app, and the iLive FX Library. It also has a large 7" touchscreen and 33 motorized faders.
The Qu-32 console is designed to deliver a dedicated fader per mic input channel, while retaining a compact footprint, Qu series styling, and extensive I/O, consisting of 32 mic/line inputs, three stereo inputs, 24 mix outputs including two Stereo Matrix Mix Outputs and four Stereo Groups with full processing, patchable AES digital output with a further two-channel ALT output, dedicated Talkback mic pre input, and two-track output. The high-resolution full-color 7" touchscreen offers easy to drive ‘Touch Channel’ access to channel processing, the FX racks and all the setup and system management controls. The SuperStrip provides control knobs for a selected channel’s key processing parameters, such as gain, HPF, parametric EQ, gate threshold, compressor threshold and pan.
Qu-Drive, the mixer’s integrated 18-channel USB recorder, can be used to record and playback multi-track and stereo audio .wav files to a USB drive. The USB interface can store scene and library data for archiving and later recall as well. The system doubles up as a studio mixer thanks to its 32x32 audio interface for streaming to/from a Mac or PC, and MIDI strips, which allow for the control of DAW track levels, selection, mutes and solos. The Qu-32's comprehensive array of features make using and setting up the Qu-32 console easy and flexible.
