The Allen & Heath Qu-Pac (AH-QU-PAC-32) is a compact, rack-mountable digital mixer with 16 mic/line inputs, 3 stereo inputs, a 5-inch touchscreen, and a dSNAKE port for remote AudioRacks. It is built for live, studio, and installation use.
Qu-Pac runs at 48kHz with AnalogiQ total recall preamps and effects ported from Allen & Heath's iLive console. It has 4 stereo FX engines with dedicated sends and returns, 4 stereo groups that can work as extra send mixes, 2 stereo matrix outputs, 4 mute groups, and 4 DCA groups.
Allen & Heath Qu-Pac Features
- 16 to 32 mono inputs. Qu-Pac has 16 local mono mic/line inputs on XLR and TRS, expandable to 32 with an AudioRack over dSNAKE. Three stereo TRS inputs handle keyboards and playback.
- AnalogiQ preamps. AnalogiQ total recall analogue preamps store gain with your scenes, so a recalled setup comes back exactly as you saved it.
- 4 stereo FX from iLive. Four stereo FX engines with dedicated sends and returns use effects ported from Allen & Heath's flagship iLive console.
- Mixes, groups, and matrix. You get mixes 1 to 10 plus LR, 4 stereo groups that can switch to extra send mixes, and 2 stereo matrix outputs for zones or delay speakers.
- Qu-Drive and USB streaming. Qu-Drive records stereo or 18 tracks at 48kHz, 24-bit WAV to a USB drive, and the USB-B port streams 32 channels to and from a computer.
- dSNAKE for remote stage boxes. A Cat5 dSNAKE link connects AR2412, AR84, or AB168 AudioRacks, so you can put the preamps on stage and the mixer where you need it.
- 5-inch touchscreen and Qu-Control. An 800x480 colour touchscreen and 15 SoftKeys give hands-on control, and a customisable Qu-Control screen can limit what users see.
Where the Qu-Pac Fits
Small venues and rental: Rack mount the Qu-Pac and run a stage box over a single Cat5 cable.
