This is the best tutorial on this ever. Filled a lot of gaps for me. Thank you!
Uptown, I can tell you I have the QU-16 and it is awesome. I use it as I/O for my DAW/Studio and it works great. Super easy to set up different mix outputs for different monitors, easy to have synths and other equipment hooked up to the mixer to record or just monitor. I did buy a StudioLive 16.0.2 and it has a dead stereo channel from the start, returned it, and got the QU-16. Allen & Heath have been making mixers for over 30 years and their stuff is good.
The best video I've found on this - thank you so much!
You can also set up the soft keys on the Qu series to move DAW Control's bank up & down, meaning you can use the faders on any number of tracks 😉
This helped me get my Qu-PAC working in Ableton. Thanks so much! Blessings.
This tutorial really helped me understand how to use my mixer in a DAW centric setup. I really appreciate your help :)
hey man can you do the same tutorial with Abelton Live routing cause seems like this needs a video .
Excellent instruction and clear directions! Thank you
Looks good…what about panning controls and DAW plugins? Will the QU-32 interface with these controls as well?
Hi Everything is working but I have not signal coming through when I speak into my mic
Hi, I've everything set up as explained in the video, I've got the audio leaving my DAW to my QU16 on each fader but the only way I can get audio into my DAW is by having the input set to local, it won't work when set to USB, any thoughts on how to solve this issue. Thanks in advance.
Output is happening simultaneous am I right? during live, mixer is sending output to main L/R to PA, other stereo output available, and to the usb all at same time? thanks
How do i find the DAW CONTROL window please?
is there. a video teaching me how to connect to pro tools 2022? im upgrading from the 003 console which has been fantastic but wont run the newest PT. I was told this mixer will but need a tutorial on how to connect it to a new mac thats being built. tx
Thanks Bro..✊..you answered what I was about to ask..
Thank you for this tutorial, is there a way to set up QU-16 as a midi controller ? I'd like to set tracks 15-16 as CC1 and CC11 ? Thanx
Ive DL'd the Midi Control App and it does not open. im running Mac OS Catalina 15 which shows that it should open
Goodday i want to know how to send my recording to the daw with the eq and efx that i have setup up on the qu
Hi. I habe plugged synts in the qu32. Can i send them to daw for peocessing, and instantly send back on the channel on the qu32?
One quick question. the custom layer's great for the 16 inputs on my Qu-16, but how do I get my daw's master output fader to be controlled by the Qu-16?
