Features
Read full description

Qu4You release V1.2.0: This version is for Qu-5 / Qu-5D, Qu-6 / Qu-6D, Qu-7 / Qu-7D mixers running V1.2.* firmware. Please note: It is NOT compatible with Qu-16, Qu-24, Qu-32, Qu-Pac or Qu-SB mixers. Qu4You is a personal monitor mixing app for the Qu mixer giving you customised control of your own monitor mix on stage using a smart phone or tablet.
 It is for remote control of a single mix (it does not pass audio), and connects to the Qu via a wireless router.

 Qu4You allows you to: - Choose any Aux mix to control - Assign which sources to control (Channels, FX returns, Groups) - View channels numbers, names and meters - Control individual channel send levels and panning (if controlling a stereo mix) - Assign up to 4 groups of channels to level trim wheels - Create a 'Me' group for quick control of your own channels - Name groups - Control the Aux mix level and mute - Control the Aux mix PEQ, Graphic EQ and Compressor - Lock the mix and/or processing to prevent user error Legacy Mode - App can connect to a previous major release of firmware Requirements: An Allen & Heath Qu mixing console with a wireless router (wireless access point) connected to its Network port. To guarantee access to all available features, the Qu mixer firmware and Qu4You app must share the same major release version (the first two numbers) but maintenance version numbers do not need to be identical, for example Qu4You V1.2.0 is compatible with Qu firmware V1.2.3. The app can connect to a Qu mixer running a previous major release of firmware, but will not support any new features and the mixer firmware should be updated at the earliest opportunity. The user logging into the app must have both ‘Qu4You’ and access to at least one mix allowed in Qu User Permissions. Refer to the Allen & Heath web site for more information and to download the latest Qu mixer firmware.
