SONICUE Control is the official app from Dynacord that allows customized control of compatible Dynacord products (such as the MXE Matrix Mix Engine or IX Series amplifiers). SONICUE Control is a panel viewer app, that allows users to operate SONICUE control panels that have been designed with the SONICUE Panel Designer; part of the SONICUE sound system software (1.2 and higher). With comprehensive design flexibility and pin protection, the SONICUE Control app can host multiple control panels for individual operators of sound systems. Once the iOS device is connected to the same network as an MXE5 or IX amplifier and a control panel in SONICUE control is active, the operator can control and monitor all assigned functions and parameters. The SONICUE Control app does not read or store your location.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SONICUE Control at 5.0 against Q's 3.0. SONICUE Control also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Q's advantage is ratings volume (53 vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 9 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
