About

SQ Control

Read full description

SQ-Control provides wireless mobile control for an Allen & Heath SQ digital mixing console. With simple configuration and set-up, it gives focused control of SQ consoles to those who only need access to some parameters, e.g. levels or mutes. SQ-Control works simultaneously with SQ-MixPad and the SQ mixing consoles. A total of 8 remote app instances can be used at once (with up to 3 of them being SQ-MixPad). Complex set-up of routing, levels and processing are carried out within the mixing console or SQ-MixPad by an experienced user, then SQ-Control can be configured and used by non-technical users or when only a few parameters require adjustment. Typical applications include simple source selection to more complex venue audio management. SQ-Control can also be used to control send levels to a single mix for monitoring, recording or live streaming.
