The reverbs are pretty bad on the SQ5 not gonna lie. However, there are plenty of things the desk does better than so many other offerings at this price range on the market (some of those things you have to pay for). The compressor plugins are really really good emulations. The Dynamic EQ and Multiband Comp are incredible. The phase coherency, low latency, customizability, flexible routing and plugin implemetation wipe the floor with the M32s and StudioLive’s of the world. The SQ5 really does sound and behave like a miniature DLive. Wish A&H was able to develop this desk further. Due for a firmware update.
