- this video talks about using the easy EQ and vocal quick channels and then converting them to the complete channels to see what processing has been applied from the factory.

thanks! just got one so this helped explain what and how to convert channels.
@@MusicmanGuitar2012 Awesome glad this helped. You're welcome and hope you end up really liking it!
Just Purchased the CQ-12 for my mobile DJing. This video is just what I needed. Def appreciate you for making this 💪🏾
@@DJKCeaser no problem buddy glad it helped! Hope you're enjoying it 👍
Can you tell me. with vocals. What FX should I use to get the best out of my voice? reveb and delay. you feel good.
Which mixer are you using? For years and years I just used one of the reverbs provided in the Yamaha mg10xu but now with the CQ18t, I use the echoverb. The echoverb combines reverb and delay and allows you to control multiple parameters.
@@JHGurganus i have Allen heath cq18t
@@JHGurganus Do you only use 1 FX? Can you just let me know. you send reveb and stereo delay. how much %. -5 or …-1…+1.. I have Allen heath cq18t
@@bin5199 here you go:
Vocals: echoverb with echo time on mid - level straight up. Reverb size just a little less than half and colour straight up. Delay on 190 ms level about a quarter the way up.
Vocal sends at -17dB
Acoustic guitar: spaceverb - space set on small hall. FX assist set to deep. Decay time between a quarter and halfway up.
Guitar sends at -26dB
I sometimes tweak things between shows but I've used these settings the last couple of gigs. Hope this helps!
@@JHGurganus Thank you very much. I just sing. don't use guitar
Hi, is it worth switching from analog to this digital mixer? Would you feel improvements? I would like to buy one myself, that's why I'm asking. I mean, does everything sound better?
@@adrianfora Yes I think there are some improvements over an analog mixer. Having more dynamic control plus being able to save scenes is a big deal for us. But ultimately does it sound better? I have always believed that comes down to the performer and the listening audience. A / B next to each other with the ability to process more on the CQ-18T, yes you should be able to get things to sound better than just a basic analog board. Hope that helps 👍
@@JHGurganus thanks, I think it will be a good investment that will increase the quality
@@adrianfora you're welcome and I agree.
I am planning to install this in a house of worship where it may be turned on from outside and no user. Will it work without any human intervention after being set up?
If I understand the question correctly, you would have to leave all channels unmuted but I'm not sure that's the best way to do things. I really didn't have any experience with installs, though.
@@JHGurganus yes, want to set volume and leave it unmuted. Its not always possible for an operator to be present and I am worried if this mixer needs to press atleast 1 button before outputting sound. We have an on power switch outside the room for this purpose
@@AhmedAli-mw8pb I understand. I know when it powers up it doesn't go right to the mixer screen...at least mine doesn't. But, I would think if there is a specific channel that is unmuted with a sound source going to it that it would start outputting sound but I could be wrong. If you don't need all this mixers capability I would think there may be better choices like a more basic analog board, but if you do need this mixer I would think it could be set up to do what you need.
Is your specific question in reference to playing back some background music or for a vocal microphone for someone who is going to speak?
@@JHGurganus you are right, analog seems the right way to go, and we do have a behringer analog already installed but was looking to upgrade to get better sound and features for occasions. Thanks alot for your response, really appreciate it
