SQ MixPad

Wireless control for the Allen&Heath SQ digital mixer series.

SQ-MixPad allows control of an SQ console over a wired or wireless network.

It can be used simultaneously and independently of the SQ surface, so it can provide supplementary local control as well as giving the engineer the freedom to move around and mix from different listening positions.

Three devices running SQ-MixPad can be connected and used at the same time as using the SQ surface, giving four separate points for control of all mixes.

An ‘Offline’ mode allows for SQ show files to be edited and managed without connection to a console.
