SQ-MixPad allows control of an SQ console over a wired or wireless network. It can be used simultaneously and independently of the SQ surface, so it can provide supplementary local control as well as giving the engineer the freedom to move around and mix from different listening positions. Three devices running SQ-MixPad can be connected and used at the same time as using the SQ surface, giving four separate points for control of all mixes. An ‘Offline’ mode allows for SQ show files to be edited and managed without connection to a console.

Why release them separately?? ### 1/5 — 1.6 update has wireless connectivity issues *2025-05-12, version 1.6.0* After update there is connectivity issues.

How do I revert to the 1.5 version? Auto updating Mixpad and SQ4U have caused several issues with compatibility. ### 4/5 — Great when it works *2025-04-02, version 1.6.0* Update 1.6 breaks the “output” on the 76 plugin within the app. When going back to each input using 76, it shows “output” at noon. ### 2/5 — Clunky *2025-03-09, version 1.6.0* Clunky interface and the auto app update is forcing me to also update the desk…… thanks…. ### 3/5 — App get automatic update and now it does not support *2025-03-03, version 1.6.0* Please add support for older firmware. ### 3/5 — The new version don’t work with my IPad *2025-03-02, version 1.6.0* The new version don’t work with my IPad.
