    Man, if this was a 24ch it would be exactly right. 16 is good but its just not quite enough if you have to mic drums individually.

    Just because it has a FPGA chip doesn't mean it has the same processing as the Avantis and DLive. That is a flat out misrepresentation of the functionality of this desk.

    There are musicians and CZcamsrs musicians. For a musician sound is everything and heart of any mixer is EQ. Next is quality of effects. For CZcamsrs is weight, wifi routing, rack and other helping things that are worthless if you (musician) don't have good first ones. I spent 30 seconds listening these CZcamsrs.

    How are you guys made a quick error you cannot multitrack record to USB stick. You accidentally said that you can record multitrack SD card or to USB B to a computer. The USB stick is strictly stereo recording only.

    I have a question, when I assign the input signal to the channel, such as USB, will the recordings I can insert only be those recorded by the console or can I use other external media?

    Can you use the Alt Output as a stereo IEM output? Can channels and levels be assigned to it, or does the Alt out mirror the main L/R? Thanks.

    • @Philip_J
      @Philip_J Před 8 měsíci +2

      You can set the Alt outputs to mirror any of the other 8 outputs (6 aux + main), they can't output channels directly

      ui24r has more inputs and outputs, slightly more expensive, a bit dated GUI, less choice for effects

    If I use it as an audio interface to record into a DAW, can the CQ-20B record all 16 channels + the 2 pairs of stereo inputs at 96khz?

    • @SpringtreeMediaGroup
      @SpringtreeMediaGroup  Před 11 měsíci

      CQ can send and receive multichannel audio with a built-in audio interface that connects to a computer or device via USB-B. The maximum number of channels that can be sent and received are: CQ-20B: 24×24 (48/96kHz)
      For capture and playback of an event, or for virtual soundcheck, signal is generally only sent or received at any time. In a studio environment however, sending and receiving signal at the same time is often required. This guide describes sending and receiving separately. For bidirectional use, simply ensure that audio is being sent from the DAW to the CQ using different channels than those being used to send audio from the CQ to the DAW.

      @@SpringtreeMediaGroup I'm a little confused because on page 50 of the user guide, it says what you have quoted in the first paragraph, but on page 120 of the same document, under the heading 'Number of channels
      ', it says, 'CQ can record or playback up to 16 channels at 96kHz or up to 24 channels at 48kHz.' Or does whatever that's written on page 120 pertain only to SD card recordings?
