x-touch – qu-sb

[SkyatnightParticipant]

Hi, new hear. Is there any way to hook up a behringer x-touch to control my Qu-sb? Thanks in advance.

@Skyatnight,

Not sure about that controller in particular, but it is possible to control a Qu remotely via its MIDI protocol (https://www.allen-heath.com/media/Qu_MIDI_Protocol_V1.9.pdf).
So it would depend on whether the controller can be programmed to send and respond to NRPN messages.
The other thing you could run into is that the Qu uses an active connection to know whether there is something connected remotely. If this is causing problems, you could either use a computer in between the two running our DAW Control Driver (https://www.allen-heath.com/daw-control/), or add in a BomeBox (https://www.bome.com/products/bomebox) which would manage the connection and could also be programmed to carry out translation.

Cheers,
Keith.

Thanks Keith, I’ll get looking into that when I get some time. There doesn’t seem to be too much anywhere online with regards to using other controllers, I have been using Logic and DAW control quite successfully but was thinking it would be great to just use the x-touch and the qu-sb going straight to HD and an ipad as a meter bridge. Thanks again.

the use of DAW fader controllers is very limited in this case

the better idea would be to use a computer (even a tablet would help a bit) with Mixing Station and control the mixing station
