The Allen & Heath SQ7+ (AH-SQ-7-PLUS) is a 48-channel digital mixer with 33 motorised faders, 32 XLR mic/line inputs, a 9-inch touchscreen, and RackUltra FX. It is built on Allen & Heath's 96kHz XCVI core for live sound, worship, and installed AV.
The SQ7+ mixes 48 input channels to a stereo main LR, 12 mono or stereo aux/group mixes, 4 FX sends, 4 RackUltra FX sends, and 6 mono/linkable matrix mixes. Local I/O is 32 XLR mic/line inputs, 2 stereo line inputs on TRS, a talkback XLR, 16 XLR outputs, 2 TRS outputs, and an AES3 stereo output.
A 128x128 SLink port connects Everything I/O expanders, and a 64x64 I/O port takes option cards (128x128 with an SLink card fitted). USB-A records to a drive, and USB-B is a 32x32 audio interface at 48 or 96kHz.
