CQ-18T

Send Audio to and from a DAW 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-12T : 16×16 (48/96kHz) CQ-18T : 24×22 (48/96kHz) 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.  CQ mixers are Core Audio compliant, so no driver is required; for lower latency connection with Windows systems, download and install the required ASIO driver from the A&H website: https://www.allen-heath.com/resources.

Send Audio from the CQ to a DAW:

Connect the CQ to the computer or device using a standard USB-B cable.

1.

Go to CONFIG / Digital Audio (Symbols) / USB/SD to set up the connection.

2.

Select a point in the signal path of an Input channel to record from using Source Point
