Drag-and-Drop Layout

• Channels and mixes can be dragged and dropped to any strip, with custom naming and color coding on the displays, letting you build a mixing environment that works for you.

At-a-Glance Metering

• Each strip features our patented Chromatic channel metering system, giving you at-a-glance level indication down to -72 dB thanks to LEDs with variable brightness and color.

Accelerate Your Workflow

• All SQ+ mixers feature assignable SoftKeys for quick access to the functions you use the most. The SQ6+ and SQ7+ also include assignable  SoftRotaries for even more custom control.

• Every input channel comes equipped with HPF, a superfast gate with side-chain and filter, a freely assignable insert point, a musical 4-band parametric equalizer with RTA, and Peak/RMS compressor for control and shaping of levels and transients. Mixes include both a parametric and 28-band graphic EQ along with compressor as standard, all ready to switch in when required.

DEEP Processing: Latency Free Emulations

• SQ+ supports the latest generation of DEEP processing add-ons—models of classic analog hardware embedded directly into your channel and mix strips, adding no latency and available on every channel simultaneously.

Two FX Suites. Twelve FX Engines

• SQ+ is equipped with 8 RackExtra FX engines, each with its own dedicated stereo return, giving you access to the acclaimed RackExtra FX suite, featuring emulations of legendary reverbs, gated reverbs, delays, modulators and more.
• Four built-in RackUltra FX engines take SQ+ further, each with dedicated stereo sends and returns. First developed for the flagship dLive system, and proven on international tours, the RackUltra FX suite of add-ons brings premium reverbs, vocal tuning and pitch processors, distortion, saturation, and more to SQ+. The 4 engines can also run RackExtra FX for maximum flexibility.

• SQ+’s built-in USB audio interface enables easy multitrack recording, backing-track playback, livestreaming, and virtual soundcheck at up to 32×32 channels at both 96 and 48 kHz, for class-compliant and compatible with Mac and Windows that have separately available ASIO and WDM drivers installed. You can map faders, rotaries, channel keys, and SoftKeys to control your favourite DAW using the Allen & Heath MIDI Control app.

Capture, Playback, Virtual Soundcheck

• The integrated SQ-Drive makes it quick and easy to capture or playback 16 channels (at 96 kHz), 32 channels (at 48 kHz), or just a simple stereo mix, direct to a USB drive. No need for a laptop or DAW—just press record.

• The 128×128 Intelligent SLink port opens up the entire Allen & Heath Everything I/O ecosystem, connecting seamlessly to a wide range of remote stageboxes, expanders, and other Allen & Heath consoles.

Audio Networking

•  A dedicated I/O expansion slot supports optional cards for Dante, MADI, Waves, and additional SLink connections, making SQ+ a natural fit for complex multi-format installs, FOH/monitor splits and broadcast setups.

AMM

• SQ+’s advanced Automatic Mic Mixers make it a natural choice for mixing conferences, panel discussions, and broadcast applications. Two independent 24-channel AMMs can run simultaneously for two separate zones or combine into a single 48-channel AMM for larger events.

• SQ+ MixPad gives you the freedom to mix from anywhere in the venue, even if that’s not physically close to the mixer’s location. The app is available for free on iOS, Android, Windows and macOS platforms.

SQ+4You

• SQ+4You is a free personal mixing app to accompany SQ+ series mixers, allowing up to eight performers to control their own monitor mixes from their Android or iOS devices, freeing the audio engineer to focus on the front-of-house sound.

Built for the Real World

• The live environment is unforgiving, so SQ+ is built to take it. A robust all-metal chassis provides the strength and rigidity to handle the rigors of touring and installation alike, while the new carbon-on-graphite finish with black-and-white knobs and fader caps gives it a sharp, contemporary look that holds up under real-world use. Every SQ+ comes backed by a two-year manufacturer’s warranty as standard.
