  • In this video we're taking a look at some of the great questions and comments you left on my first CQ-18t video a few weeks ago. There were many questions that have already been answered in better detail than I can go into if you look at the A&H official forums for the CQ mixers: community.allen-heath.com/for...

      @@DcSoundOp I'm at NAB this week looking to see if anything is AMAZING. Most shows just have better more of the same. But I usually find that there are one or two things that are truly amazing.

      That's great that you made it out to NAB, I was looking at flights earlier in the year, but it all snuck up on me too fast. Have a great time!

    Hi, I have a question: the compressor in the channel strip is un diseabled for aux outs, it works only in Main LR, there's a solution?
    Note, I saw the diagram and I think is not possible...
    great video tho

    • @DcSoundOp
      @DcSoundOp  Před 2 měsíci

      Hey thanks for the great question. The aux outputs are setup post-EQ but pre-compressor, so you're absolutely correct. If you'd like to add your voice to the suggested features discussion about this, here is the link: community.allen-heath.com/forums/topic/optional-source-point-for-sends-to-outputs - I'm not at all sure how likely they are to add it, or if it's possible, but I know other folks are looking for the same functionality. Thanks again!

    I wonder what happens if the ambient temperature goes above it's limit. I have come close a few times.

    • @DcSoundOp
      @DcSoundOp  Před měsícem

      That's a great question. Hoepfully as we get into the summer months, more folks will get these outdoors and see how they really do in direct sun etc.

    Hey nice Video!
    1. How do I delete recorded Multitracks on my SD card (CQ18) Cant even find the file if iam inserting it in my Laptop
    2. If I record and then try to make a virtual soundcheck on my headphones I can only hear my changes on the quickchannel settings but not on fx or fader. If i do the changes on my PR it works also for FX and fader.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Greetings

    • @DcSoundOp
      @DcSoundOp  Před 2 měsíci +1

      That’s a great question about deleting files. I don’t have the mixer here to look at anymore. If you submit these questions on the Allen & Heath CQ forum, you’ll probably get the fastest answer - community.allen-heath.com/forums/forum/cq/cq-general-discussions - for the recording, you can see the record pick off points on page 132 in the manual, all are before the fader. See ‘global recording source option’ in the Input Channel block - www.allen-heath.com/content/uploads/2023/09/CQ_User_Guide_V1_1_0_iss1.pdf#page119 - For the EFX, you’d have to choose to record the efx to a track, otherwise they won’t be recorded. I hope that helps!

      Yes! Check out pages 88 & 89 in the manual for the full details: www.allen-heath.com/content/uploads/2023/09/CQ_User_Guide_V1_1_0_iss1.pdf#page88 Thanks for watching!

    I bought an Allen and Heath CQ-18T. The power supply produces strong pink noise from the network to the guitar through the headrush mx5 processor (((((

    • @DcSoundOp
      @DcSoundOp  Před měsícem

      Hi, not sure if the power supplies are all the same, where are you located? Did you reach out to Allen & Heath on their forum about this yet? They’re usually very helpful.
