Allen & Heath SQ5

Powered by Allen & Heath’s revolutionary XCVI 96kHz FPGA engine, SQ5 is built for professionals in the most demanding live sound applications. Delivering class leading high resolution audio with an ultra low <0.7ms latency, the SQ5 gives you unrivalled power and audio fidelity. The mixer has 16 onboard preamps and 8 stereo FX engines with dedicated return channels and access to the acclaimed RackExtra FX library. 12 stereo mixes (configurable as groups or auxes) make SQ the perfect companion for in ear monitoring setups, whilst Automatic Mic Mixing takes the strain in multi mic environments. SQ5 gives you all the tools to meet any requirement, from AV and corporate events to live productions and houses of worship.

SQ-5 has all the onboard I/O you need for standalone operation. Thanks to its SLink intelligent port, SQ can also be expanded up to a total of 48 mic inputs via a family of 96kHz and 48kHz rack and stage box expanders (e.g. AB168, AR2412, AR84 GX4816 and DX168), making it a flexible, mix n match solution for owners of other Allen & Heath digital systems. You can also link your SQ directly to another SQ or even a dLive system.
