Allen & Heath SQ-5+ 48 Channel UltraFX Ready Digital Mixer
Allen & Heath SQ-5+
Compact and rack-mountable, the Allen & Heath SQ5+ puts the full feature set into the smallest frame in the range. 17 motorised faders, 8 assignable SoftKeys and 4 built-in RackUltra FX engines give you flagship-tier processing and comprehensive hands-on control. Add the 19” rack kit and it’s as at home in a fixed installation as it is on the road.
A Bigger, Bolder Interface
SQ+ is centred around a responsive 9” touchscreen with an all-new dark GUI that is fast to navigate and easy to read in any mixing environment. Framed by high-grip illuminated encoders, it delivers an intuitive blend of visual feedback and hands-on control.
Drag-and-Drop Layout
Channels and mixes can be dragged and dropped to any strip, with custom naming and colour 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 -72dB thanks to LEDs with variable brightness and colour.
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.
