SQ-5 Digital Audio Console

Powered by Allen & Heaths revolutionary XCVI 96kHz FPGA engine, SQ-5 is built for professionals in the most demanding live sound applications.  Delivering class-leading high resolution audio with an ultra-low <0.7ms latency, the SQ-5 gives you unrivalled power and audio fidelity.  The mixer has sixteen (16) onboard preamps and eight (8) stereo FX engines with dedicated return channels and access to the acclaimed RackExtra FX library.  Twelve (12) stereo mixes (configurable as groups or auxes) make SQ the perfect companion for in-ear monitoring setups, whilst Automatic Mic Mixing* takes the strain in multi-mic environments.  SQ-5 gives you all the tools to meet any requirement, from AV and corporate events to live productions and houses of worship.

The Mixing Experience

With each new design, the Allen & Heath team strives to get closer to the ultimate mixing experience.  SQs dashboard is centred around a high-res 7 capacitive touchscreen, framed by an array of high-grip, illuminating encoders to create an intuitive, integrated blend of clear visual feedback and immediate, hands-on control.  Channels and mixes can be dragged and dropped to any strip, with custom naming and colour coding on the colour strip displays, allowing you to build a mixing environment that mirrors your own workflow.  Each strip features our patented Chromatic channel metering system, giving you at-a-glance level indication thanks to LEDs with variable brightness and colour.
