Allen & Heath

Experience the power of digital mixing in a compact 4 RU enclosure with the Allen & Heath SQ-Rack, a 48-channel, 36-bus digital mixing console well suited for live sound, corporate A/V, recording studios, and houses of worship. The SQ-Rack features 16 professional-quality microphone preamps, eight stereo FX engines with dedicated return channels, and access to the RackExtra FX library with dozens of emulation of legendary classic reverbs, delays, modulators, and more. The mixer's 12 stereo outputs (configurable as groups or auxes) are well suited for in-ear-monitor setups, while the Auto Mic Mixing function offers quick and easy operation over multiple microphones for conferences, panel talks, and more. At the heart of the SQ-Rack lies the 96 kHz XCVI Core FPGA engine, which delivers professional, high-resolution audio quality, ultralow latency (less than 0.7 ms), variable bit depth for precision and noise performance, mix coherency down to the sample, and the power to handle high channel / mix counts and ample FX processing. The SQ's DEEP processing architecture allows you to hand-pick boutique compressor and preamp emulations and embed them directly within the mixer's inputs and mix channels, all without adding system latency or setup hassles.At a Glance 19 rack-mountable (4 RU)Audio and processing:96 kHz XCVI FPGA processing48 input channels12 stereo mixes + LR3 stereo matrix (split to 6 mono)8 stereo FX engines + dedicated stereo returnsDEEP processing readyOnboard I/O:16+1 built-in mic preamps3 stereo line inputs12 XLR line outputs2 TRS line outputsAES outputControl:7 capacitive touchscreen8 assignable SoftKeys4 assignable soft rotariesSQ-MixPad appSQ-Control appSQ4You appExpandability and integration:SLink port for remote audio / expansion64 x 64 I/O port for audio networking cards (Dante, Waves, MADI, SLink)Recording and streaming:SQ-Drive direct recording to USB32 x 32 96 kHz USB interfaceNo Faders?
