DESCRIPTION
The Allen & Heath SQ-5 has 48 channels at 96kHz, 17 faders, 16 onboard mic preamps and a 7-inch touchscreen. SQ is built for live sound, AV and installation, as well as recording and streaming.
At its core is Allen & Heath's XCVI 96kHz FPGA engine, with latency under 0.7 ms. You get 12 stereo mixes plus the main LR, 3 stereo matrix outputs and 8 RackExtra FX engines, and it is ready for DEEP processing add-ons. The SLink port connects Allen & Heath stage boxes and expanders, and the I/O port takes Dante, MADI, Waves or SLink cards.
