Being able to overwrite ‘CH00’ with a name I presume? That way it should show up on the Qu-pad too

Thanks Nicola, got the newer version of the manual now 🙂

Just got the Samsung M3 this week and it tested fine so all set up to record this weekends gig. When recording multitrack, at what point of the signal path is it tapped off to the Qu drive…?, preEQ, prefade, etc?? (or selectable?) Be nice to have some ‘raw’ data to play around with in the DAW.

Make it so !!

Happy to report used the airport express with my Qu-16 last weekend and worked great. Went out into the car park 40 feet away and still had wireless control

[jet1968Participant]

mmm, tried doing that but ended up doing a factory reset on the unit and connecting to my mac to make settings. Anyways, up and running now 🙂
only confusing thing is I have 2 different IP addresses in airport utility, although I’m presuming the one titled ‘LAN IP ADDRESS’ is the one I’m using with the mixer. (address is 192.168.1.1 versus 192.168.1.100 in Qu-16 network settings)
This router mode default to using DHCP and NAT, not sure what NAT is but seems to work ok with it switched on

I also have ‘hidden network’ turned off (default) but should I turn this on to stop people attempting to connect, even though its password protected?
thanks

Ok, my airport express has arrived today, anyone give me tips on setting up? Do I need to connect it to my mac to setup its functions or can I do that via the iPad?

Hello John

Good news,
The reason we do not have a updated list of routers to work with the QU-6 and the other digital desks is that any router will work, since A&H moved away from multiplexing, you just need a router that can be edited and allow for DHCP/fixed IP address.
Basically your Sky router would work 🙂

Hope this can help

Right guys, from the horses mouth….here’s a copy of my emails with the tech department
Hi,

Regarding the list you sent on routers for the Qu-16, I notice the date is May 2011 so most of those routers have been replaced or superseded. Could you possibly give me the model numbers of a couple of currently compatible routers to use with the Qu16? I’ve also heard of people using the Apple airport express successfully, can you confirm if that box will do the job?

regards

Hello John

The apple airport express will do the job really nicely, in fact that is the router that we are currently using on out test room.
Same apply for routers used with the iLive systems:

Hope this can help

Hi Rodrigo,

Many thanks for the prompt reply and for confirming that the apple box will work.

Is it time to update the router compatibility page?

regards,

John

Hi John

The page is updated by the A&H team, we have no control over this, I all pass your comments to them.

Kind Regards

Rodrigo Thomaz

Thanks Rodrigo, that would be most kind. There will be a lot of other new Qu-16 users out there asking the same question, so the more up-to-date info, the better

regards,

John

You are absolutely correct John

I will get on this right now

Kind Regards

I did find this on the A&H website, refers to i-live but presumably they’ll adopt this with the Q-16?
https://www.allen-heath.com/UK/CategoryDocuments/iLive_Router_Compatibility.pdf

no mention of the airport express anywhere? Mind you, looks like it was compiled in May 2011, so they must be due to update that list soon?

[jet1968Participant]

Those of you using the airport express, be grateful of some simple to understand instructions how to get up and running out of the box (settings etc)

[jet1968Participant]

Thanks for the replies guys, not sure what the apple guy was talking about, maybe he misunderstood? May as well go with the airport express as I already use a mac and we have several iPads, generally happy with Apple products, unless anyone advises me differently…

[jet1968Participant]

Thanks for the reply 🙂

Funnily enough, I phoned Apple tech support regarding the airport express and the guy there told me it was not suitable for my purpose as it would not give me the wireless network I needed?? That sounds like rubbish if you are using one successfully….can you confirm that’s all you are using, i.e. mixer network output —> airport express—->iPad
Thanks
