I was looking at the X32 before I plumped for the QU 16 and QU Pac. Having used the X32 as guest engineer at 3 festivals (all via the same prod company) I made the right choice. It’s okay but outside of the nice scribble strips, A&H gear is better in just about every way.

I do have other bits – same cable tester as you Mark, plus bog standard…[Read more]

Not a fan of B*******r then Mark 🙂 🙂

Thanks all.

I should have kept the file for bug testing but started again and overwrote the original.

Mike C, the meters were bouncing on the sends, didn’t check the returns, but I definitely checked all assignments as I had been caught out by this in my early days with the QU 16. Once bitten and all that.

As debzdoodle suggests, I guess it’s…[Read more]

What Mike said. Any of the mixes can be used for FX 3 and 4. I tend to use 5-6, 7-8 or 9-10 as some of the FX are better suited to a stereo mix.

I think it’s technically possible but from what I understand the latency is too high to be of use. I could be wrong though. And no you cannot add FX to the QU series – A&H leave that, quite rightly, for their higher end products. The new SQ range has this feature and isn’t vastly more expensive than the QU series but keep in mind that the…[Read more]

Update for xiim: I get something similar to yours but not as obvious. If it was me, I would ask A&H if that is within tolerance and see what they say. I certainly would continue to use it in the meantime.

Got to be honest, doesn’t look that bad to me. I’m working on mine tonight so will check it out, compare and report back.

I think it means that the inputs on the SB itself are hard wired to channels 1-16. If like me you have an AB168, you can then add then map thesw dSnake inputs to channel 17-32. You can also map the dSnake channels to 1-16, but this will restrict you to just 16 channels as the on board inputs can only be 1-16. I rarely need more than 16 inputs for…[Read more]

Fine for me 4 shows in as well.

Why can’t you set up a mute group for monitors?? I have and it’s useful in so many ways. Also, set up a mute group for FX as well as this can be deployed between music. I’d also suggest that if the speech sounds so impaired by the monitors in the first place, that perhaps you EQ your monitors to be less boomy?

Yep…. from P2 of the manual.

Pretty sure all their warranties are one year.

Off topic I know, but interested that you have got a Qu-pac Mark. I’ve just got a new one as I was paranoid I had no plan b if my Qu-16 failed. I’d love to pick your brains on how you find and how you get the best out of it. I’ve basically ported all my scenes and configured the custom layers for the 4 bands I work with, so technically it’s ready…[Read more]

According to the release notes, this release shouldn’t affect connectivity if QuPad or the mixer is not updated (or vice versa).

Thanks all.

Giga… TS? Not sure I understand that last bit.

Also, Custom Layers I use frequently on my QU16, but I like to have my FX sends on there as well so replicating the inputs in a different order would lead me to run out of channels pretty quick.I knew I should have gone for a QU24 but finances simply couldn’t stretch at the time (or…[Read more]

Nice idea BRS, and probably relatively easy to do.

Was wondering if something in the way the iPad communicates with the desk wasn’t quite right (as a result of the upgrade). Perhaps causing it get confused?
