      Hi, by default, Inputs 1&2 on the mixer are for the Stereo outs of your DAW. This means that by default, your Left and Right mix from your DAW will go to Inputs 1 & 2 of the digital mixer. If your DAW allows it you can set different outputs to individual inputs on the mixer. For example: Track 1 from your DAW can be sent to input 12 on the mixer.

    Hello dear. I am about to buy one for my band, for our live performances. If i want to playback multitrack (around 8 stereo files) without using DAW, is it doable with this mixer? like i put them on an sd card or a usb card, and can i play multitrack? assign each track to faders and mix live on the fly? for example if u have 1-kick 2- rest of drums 3- bass 4- keys 5- vocals etc.... all prerecorded and on the top i want to add live instruments, and i want to mix the prerecorded tracks, for example the kick in track 1 is low, i wana use a fader to raise it, the vocal on track is is high, i wanna decrease its volume etc..... are such sorts of routings doable?

      This is possible through this mixer using the SD card. I cover this at 3:43 sec. It's not the most convenient way of doing it, but it's possible. Once the tracks are on the SD card, you can mix them however you like with the live instruments. Hope that helps...

    Oh yeah, forgot what about more options on the pickoff points for the aux mixes besides just pre and post fader? Unless the pre fader option is already pre channel dynamics/compression pickup point, adding option for that seems like an essential option to have. I don't want any channel compression applies to channels (that may be helpful for the FOH mix) coming through monitor mixes like wedges or iems as will mess with singers sense of their own dynamics, risk leading to straining or developing bad vocal habits and in wedges reduce gain before feedback available. Only compression ever use for monitor mixes we be at output level on such auxes in form of peak limiter set where it would should almost never engage unless was drastic unexpected jump in level where that limiter would provide protection for hearing and or the speakers. Of course for auxes used for other things for example, front fill mix, separate live stream mix i can see where may want to be able to have post dynamics pickup point and depending on application pre or post fader may be what would be used.

    Mute groups, subgroups, and dca's would be my top one of the feature requests by far but the others i can see value in as well. A few other features, i wish the CQ series had 1) Low Pass Filters on channels without losing a band of parametric eq. 2) Option to change the slope of the hipass and low pass filters 3) Blend knob on the compressors 4) Key Filter for the gates to have better control on what will open the gates. * Even better but related, adding option to set gate to a mode that would be similar to the famous 5054 primary source enhancer or waves primary source expander. Could be so useful tool to have onboard for better reducing unwanted bleed in some channels. 5) Dynamic EQ: Even if it was just a few bands that could be inserted on some channels, on subgroups, and outputs(at least main LR mix). While at it, include blend knob on it as well. Option to side chain to another input channel wouldn't be bad idea either but even just simple few bands of dynamic eq available would be such helpful tool to have available for some things in certain situations.

      @@luki_eh Well this would be a very long reply. But in short it’s lazy to use. The singer can be in the feedback zone the entire performance with the frequencies all cut out and sounding thin next to the monitors or mains with no feedback and the volume thin and reduced . Without the lazy feedback reduction the sound guy can pick out a few problem frequencies by turning the pa way up , and walking the mic around near the speakers, before the show . Then the sound is full and the vocals aren’t being thinned out in the mains if they get too close to the monitors or mains and they end up lost in the mix . Learn your frequencies like we use to. Feedback is a tool to gauge setting up a great front of house sound and can be manually reduced in 1 or 2 frequencies, and not automatically compensating and reducing 12 frequencies like the entire vocal mix. But you can’t learn it overnight and people have no patience today so the sound is awful when compared to a knowledgeable sound guy.

Using the tech is much faster than old school ringing and far more precise. One can do it old school with this mixer of course but if you're mixing a festival or multiple bands its all about time. I suggest using the analyzer to find the problem frequencies and then turning off the auto ride function or adjust its sensitivity if possible. Just ordered it yesterday. Was going for the ui24 but the inability to easily acquire a large touch screen for it without having to add other outboard gear that would raise the price of admission almost half more forced me to reconsider .

      @@crosslylucas thank you for your response. I’m really new on live streaming and I’m still confused so this cable where you get your live stream audio right? Sorry for my ignorance I just got my cq18 and don’t know how to get the stereo audio mix to use it on the livestream on my iPhone. Is there anyway or other way you can get your live audio streaming. I would like to know more about this. I really appreciate you time 🙏
