The Allen & Heath Qu-Pac is a compact desktop or rack mount 22 in / 12 out digital mixer with massive processing power and advanced functionality.

The 800 x 480, sixteen million colour Touchscreen and its dedicated data encoder provide super-fast, easy access to all settings. Dedicated keys and screen tabs quickly guide you to meter and RTA views, FX racks, channel processing, USB audio control, scenes, setup menus and much more. It can also be operated via the Qu-Pad iPad app for super-fast, easy access to all settings.

The Qu-Control key brings up a fully customisable screen which gives access to channels and settings tailored to the user and application. Several ‘widgets’ can be assigned to the page, including channel levels, mutes and assignment on/off switches and are arranged to suit the user requirement, for example, as a source selection and level control of background music to one or multiple zones.

Qu-Pac features sixteen AnalogiQ digitally controlled preamps with advanced zero-crossing detection and a padless 1dB-step gain stage.

The refined AnalogiQ preamp design offers superb transparency, minimal distortion and an ultra-low noise floor, with a warm, musical sound.

The analogue signal is captured by high-class, low latency 24bit analogue to digital converters, which are matched to 24bit digital to analogue converters to deliver the required high quality output.

With dynamics and FX algorithms derived from those used in the A&H pro touring series, Qu boasts 4 stereo RackFX engines, featuring lovingly crafted emulations of legendary classic reverbs, gated reverbs, delays, modulators, flangers and more. FX are returned to the mix on dedicated return channels, so you’re not tying up your mono and stereo input channels, and each Stereo FX Return has a dedicated 4 band PEQ.

The built-in audio interface enables Qu-Pac to record up to 32 tracks to your Mac or PC, and returns from the computer can be easily assigned to the Input channels of the mixer.

Standard MIDI control is sent over the USB and network connections, this can be mapped to the faders of your favourite DAW using our MIDI Control app which provides easy setup and emulation of HUI or Mackie Control protocols.

Livestreaming is easy - Just send a stereo mix over USB and your streaming software will do the rest.

The Qu-PAC also has Qu-Drive - an integrated multitrack USB recorder providing 18 channels of 48kHz, 24bit recording and playback straight to / from your USB key or hard drive.
To capture multitrack recordings, a selectable stereo pair can be recorded alongside the 16 Mono channels, and multitrack audio can be played back to the 16 Mono inputs plus ST1.

Qu-Drive also provides stereo recording patchable from any pair of Mix outputs, the Main LR (pre, post, or summed to mono) or even the PAFL bus, with 2- track stereo playback to ST3.

In applications such as conferences, meetings and panel discussions where several microphones are open at the same time, the Automatic Microphone Mixer reduces background noise and minimises the risk of feedback.

The D-Classic dynamic gain sharing algorithm is inspired by industry standard automixers. Up to 16 microphone sources can be mixed at once, with each channel having a priority setting which determines its ‘weight’ in the total system gain.

For future upgrades from multicore to a Cat5 digital snake, Qu-32 benefits from a built-in dSNAKE™ port, allowing connection to a remote AB168, AR2412 or AR84 Stagebox from the Everything I/O range of remote expanders.

Made from 18 gauge, cold-rolled Zintec steel, Qu’s distinctive frame is designed for strength and rigidity. Its sleek profile allows optimal airflow through the mixer, eliminating the need for any fans for silent operation.
