Mute Groups and DCA’s were at the top of my wish list, but I wasn’t expecting to have both of them this year already. I’m impressed! Well done to the CQ team.
Thank you Allen & Heath for this awesome update. I just picked up a CQ-18T & did my first event a few weeks ago & everything was easy to learn & the gig went flawlessly.
Great Update. I just wish the source point for the outputs could be chosen even before any processing. I usually route the unprocessed signal to another input, in order to provide a in-ear eq signal just for my own voice. so i can compensate the occlusion effekt. Even better (and easier) would be to link two inputs and allow them both independent processing. Hopefully this will be implemented in future. No big deal actually... Anyway, great job so far 👍
I like these mixers a lot and this is a great update. Do you think it would be possible to add a couple more EQ bands for each channel and also allow a greater range of cut and boost? Maybe 25db+/-
Great update ! Looks like it’s now possible to switch back and forth between this app and another without logging out ! Just tried it yesterday. Not sure if you guys added some features to manage backing tracks - sending the L and R of the Bluetooth or of the SD card reader to an output of choice ?
Thanks for the update, we've been waiting for this. My question is if it's possible to play songs that weren't recorded in the mixer and put them in to play in the background before the show, thanks.
I just bought a cq-18t. I have an ef note e-drum which has a micro usb with 8 audio out and I connect it to the ca-18t through the usb A. Is doesn’t seem to recognize the input coming from my edrum. Is there something I am doing wrong? Does it have to be connected to usb b of the cqt-18?
The CQ system is closed and unable to network audio, so it is unlikely, that this will ever be implemented. We have the 20B model for those who would rather have a stage box-esque mixer. Kind regards, Luke
With CQ you can run the Aux buses post-fade, set all faders to unity, and then assign a DCA to both the main LR and aux bus master faders. The main mix faders then control the mix for both LR & the Aux. The DCA then controls the overall level of bot outputs Thanks, Luke
I was wondering about the same yesterday. Mute Mode - Set Trails On to hear any reverb or delay trail fade out naturally when muting an FX unit. Set Trails Off to have the FX mute instantly. You can find it in the manual on page 112.
Eventhough this is all impressive I still need alot more. For instance: Subgroups. For me, I really need subgroups/group channels. Why is it that A&H realeases these affordable rack mixers and never have them have subgroups and so little DCA's? Like, I have a soundcraft ui24r and we have at least 6 subgroups and also 6 DCA's ALSO 6 mute groups! And it's also cheaper than most A&H products. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE A&H products and use them all the time form the SQ series all the way up to Dlive range. The problem is when A&H release some affordable stuff they release some idiot proof mixers which CAN'T do shit for pro mixers. And Soundcraft ui24r have Lexicon effects and DBX compressors, de-esser and decent preamps AND 24 fucking CHANNELS for a cheaper option than this!!! I'm sorry this CQ range a boat load of sh*t just to get money off of new "audio engineers". Sorry for ranting.
Could you please let me know where you find the touchscreen, buttons and knobs on the Ui24R? Also, it's a 16 (20) input mixer how many sub groups do you need?

Thanks so much to the A&H team for all of the updates! This is fast becoming my go to mixer for small live events.

Excited for the update, look forward to using the new features and fx layout at church! Thank you Keith and Team!
What a great update! Thanks Keith and team. ❤️
Thanks so much for this informative video and thanks to A&H for the update!
@7:52 "I'm just a ginger idiot here" lol. No Keith, you are a legend! Thanks for all your awesome videos. We love you. And the CQ!
Wow love the layers
Well done. Going to update this weekend ...
This is a good update with very useful features. Would love to have some groups added to improve workflow :)

Thank you for this great update but please allow me to set effect busses as pre-fader in the next update. It's very important for me!

thanks A&H
Mute groups - you should have the button display as half red (or 50% faded red) if there are channels within that have been unmuted.
Appears only FX returns can be on custom layer, please add ability to use FX sends also.
hi sorry i was late can you in the next video explain better the new output source points and post/pre fader? thanks
Excelente video. Lás salidas deverian ser amolificadas sunque sea para poder monitoresr con suriculares , o lo son?
Awesome! when V2 for Dlive??
Is there a way to add a fader board instead of just tablets?
Sidechain compression please, please ???🙏
Could there be an option to have post fader metering with a temporary peak hold indicator in a future update? Al Gurr
When will you make a 24 channel CQ, it will really help with medium to large scale events.
I think the fader via ipad or tablet is not smooth enuf for doing some gigs for fast response yet
Can you add custom labels for the FX Channels? It looks like they’re stuck as FX1, FX2, etc :(
How does the update affect previous databases? Is the new OS backward compatible?
Thanks for the update, we've been waiting for this. My question is if it's possible to play songs that weren't recorded in the mixer and put them in to play in the background before the show, thanks.
Yes, It's possible but they have to be .WAV files. No MP3 support
I would love to know how to do it because I didn't succeed, thanks
Is there a way to set up matrices, e.g. for aux fed subs?
I wish that this console would allow you to take an input off the LR so you can send inputs to aux/bus then send that bus to the LR 😢😢😢😢😢
Are Aux sends now able to be post comp?
Yes, refer to time stamp 15:00 in the vid
I just bought a cq-18t. I have an ef note e-drum which has a micro usb with 8 audio out and I connect it to the ca-18t through the usb A. Is doesn’t seem to recognize the input coming from my edrum. Is there something I am doing wrong? Does it have to be connected to usb b of the cqt-18?
I also tried connecting my ef note-drum to the usb b port from the mixer as well and it does not appear the cq-18 recognizes my ef note drum set
Will there be a stage box for CQ series in the future?
The CQ system is closed and unable to network audio, so it is unlikely, that this will ever be implemented. We have the 20B model for those who would rather have a stage box-esque mixer.
Kind regards,

Hi, can I send Main L.R into OUT 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or6 please ? I have bought CQ 18 T a wonderful mixage table. Thank you Allen & Heath !!!
With CQ you can run the Aux buses post-fade, set all faders to unity, and then assign a DCA to both the main LR and aux bus master faders.
The main mix faders then control the mix for both LR & the Aux. The DCA then controls the overall level of bot outputs

Thank you so much 😊
what is trail on on fx?
I was wondering about the same yesterday.
Mute Mode - Set Trails On to hear any reverb or delay trail fade out naturally when
muting an FX unit. Set Trails Off to have the FX mute instantly.
You can find it in the manual on page 112.
Don't we have GEQ on outputs?
Hi,
The CQ can either have a 20-band GEQ or 16-band FBA, plus, a 4-band PEQ assigned to any system outputs.
Thanks,
Luke
@@AllenandHeathUK I have seen how to access it thank you
X touch intergration pls! :D
I'm returning my CQ18T tomorrow. I can't figure out how to update the firmware.
Hi Joe,
If you would like some assistance with this, please drop us a line.
