The video might be old as for the years, but for viewer/s who's into audio/sound engineering this video still fresh to be, very informative and entertaining. Honestly, even until now I am tempted to review the vid as refresher. And downloaded it for vid file reference.. Sir Bruno Goh Luse is a true man who's willingness to share his knowledge is truly commendable. But I just don't understand why there are people who disliked the vid. Best regards, Steven Murray
All three parts make up a great tutorial. I especially found the info in this video around routing and DCAs and mute groups valuable. I used to find this desk complicated but this guy explains it so well. Thank you!
My church has this mixer, and these videos were SO USEFUL. Really made me feel much more comfortable with the capabilities, and presented in a way that wasn't boring as a bonus!
Many years ago at a rehearsal studio the singer wanted more reverb on her mic. I quite quickly was able to do it but then was really intrigued by the digital mixer. It was a A&H too. After watching this series I'd love to own one myself! Amazing 👏🏾
Very good illustration of the A&H Qu32; I have been using analogue mixers for over 25 years. Now I am about to buy this beast and the tutorials are quite explanatory. Thanks GLD !!
You're welcome Desmond - I also moved from analog to digital about 10 years ago. Like most things, there are advantages and disadvantages to both systems, although for live I would say digital is an improvement for most people.
Not only are you an excellent teacher with respect to content, I see from your replies in the comments that you are a very generous and patient man. Many thanks for this excellent presentation. My heretofore under utilized QU 16 thanks you as well.
You're most welcome DF, glad the video was helpful. Even though the Qu series are A&H's entry level digital mixers it's amazing how much is packed into them - I've mixed many professional shows on these consoles and never wanted more.
Excellent video. While not cheap, I think the Allen and Heath Qu Series represents a good quality entry level series of digital mixers. I'm using a QU-16 in a mobile church, and the things I like about it : 1. Excellent audio quality. 2. It feels like a premium product - the surfaces, knobs, faders, all feel good quality. You mix with confidence, knowing that you are using a quality product. 3. The documentation is relatively excellent. I would have written it in a completely different way though. 4. It replaces a huge rack of devices which one would have had to purchase, if one was aiming to do all this using analog devices. 5. Good set of processors, Gates, High Pass Filters, Parametric EQ's, Graphic EQ's, Compressor, Delay, and its nice to know that the compressor has an infinity ratio - but it would have been wonderful to be able to set the threshold at which the soft knee kicks in. What's missing? No Dynamic EQ, No Multiband Compressor, It would have been super to have a dedicated limiter, the Minimum release time of 100 milliseconds on the Compressors is far too long, would have wished for a release as low as 10 milliseconds Its a bit difficult to know the exact value of a fader, it would be nice to know this afterall, this is a digital mixer so some exactness would have been appreciated. I find that the calibration on the dials, makes it difficult to consistently set values accurately, for processor parameter values, example adjusting values on compressor ratios, is a bit of a hit and miss. The accuracy of dials seems to vary from channel to channel, and this does not make any sense.
Thank you for these videos. A step by step guide to everything one can explore on this mixer. You have a wonderful way putting things down. Please continue with such videos. These are extremely helpful.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I have been tasked with running this soundboard in just a few days. I was in a panic because I have only ever used a basic analog system. You made this so simplefor an inexperienced sound wannabe like me. Again, thank you so so so much, this really means a lot.
You're welcome! You were tasked with running the mixer but were not given any training? What sort of arrangement is that? Were you expected to learn how to use it on your own?
Thank you for this series of videos. Not only is it a great resource for the Allen and Heath mixer, but also the way many digital mixers in general work. I can even apply the information to my RME audio interface that has Totalmix FX. Thank you once again
Thanx.that was really helpful.our ministry got QU-24.(I think its 24) Got no one to teach how to work this QU-24.until Jesus told me to look in TH-cam.then saw your teachings. God bless u and Jesus love u.
Thanks for a wonderful video on digital mixer .... I used the venue software but never saw a real digital mixer tutorial. This is a great help to understand advance mixing consoles.
Fantastic tutorial. I am about to buy the qu24 for our band. Downloaded the manuals and was overwhelmed by the options. Have used analogue desks for many years in the studio, but not for live gigs. Your approach is logical and entertaining. I now feel much more comfortable about tackling the features of the qu24 (hi from australia)
Thanks for getting in touch Raymond, glad to hear the videos have been helpful! Sometimes it's much easier to learn from another person than from a book or manual.
Brilliant video series. Very easy to follow and in simple language. I was just about to jump in and buy an A&H but was unsure if I could drive the desk. This has been a great help and I'm going to take that jump.
Thank You so much! I need this knowledges tommorow cause our band ordered that mixer for live performance! Last time I couldn't find FX , but now I understand the process! Thank You
Thanks Bruce - I actually plan these training sessions carefully and have a lesson plan telling me which sections of the mixer to cover and in which sequence. So it was most certainly not done on the fly - wish I was that good an educator!
@@GLBProductions I teach at a Tafe College here in Warrnambool Australia, l have recently installed a QU 24, l have a few questions l would like to ask you, would prefer not to push here though. Thanks so much for your be reply
very educative. thank you so much for sharing. i have the qu16 and couldnt get effects. now i know where i went wrong. thanks a bunch. love the accent. hillarious.
All three of these videos (Part 1,2,3) by GLB are EXCELLENT. My band is expecting the arrival of the QU-16 in two days and I've been searching everywhere for a good nuts and bolts explanation of the QU series mixers. These 3 videos by GLB are by far the most effective on the planet, and that's for both novice and advanced users. Thank you, GLB!! You even made it fun! I do have a question: Are there sample tracks that one can use to experiment with the board? I know we can record the band but prior to us actually using it, let alone recording from it, it would be awesome to experiment with sample tracks to help get familiar. Please advise if any of these exist. Thanks again.
Hello Matthew glad to videos have been helpful! When you say sample tracks do you mean for doing a virtual soundcheck? Or for practising your mixing skills?
Primarily for practicing mixing skills. For me, I'm only interested in live performance mixing, so it sure would be nice if there were some online songs available for the QU series to practice with. This will help with mixing skills, yes, but also would help aid in familiarity with moving around the board, etc.
To be honest with you Matthew I'm not sure about where you'd obtain such tracks, other than recording them yourself - perhaps ask the person who sold you the mixer? No doubt they are available from some third party :)
You're the best. I'll do that (check with my sales rep). Also, I am exploring Big Fish Audio as they sell tracks and loops etc., so in case you're ever interested yourself, go check them out at www.bigfishaudio.com. Cheers!
Dear GLB, Thanks for your awesome work. I watched your videos on Allen & Heath Qu-32 and will like to ask you a question. I sent all 32 channels over USB to my DAW and sent back the processed mix over the same USB to channels 31 and 32. These channels were routed to my video switcher on mix 7-8. The problem is that my mix 7-8 is also sending the unprocessed sound from all inputs instead of just sending 31 and 32 coming from the DAW. So I have a combination of processed and unprocessed sound coming from 7-8. How can I exclude channels 1 to 30 from mix 7-8? Thanks.
I just finished watching these training videos, parts 1-3. I want to say they were pretty darn good. My only disappointment was in how to apply an effect. I have the QU-16 Chrome (which works the same way) but I'm having a hard time getting them to work. Oh well, my quest continues.
Yes that can be tricky because you have to ensure that both the FX send and return are unmuted and turned up. If you are having trouble I suggest you go to the shop that sold you the mixer and get them to show you in person - it is much easier to learn these things if you can see and touch the mixer for yourself.
Hello Bruno. I have thoroughly enjoyed these trainings. I wanna ask a question. Can you interconnect 2 QU consoles to get more channels and if so, how does one do that? Thanks.
Hi Bruno,Based on your review[s] I have decided to get the QU-16 E&E told me not stock for 'D-Snake' till Sept!.I am allergic or too old for analog looms..But Luther may have ex stock.
Greeting from San Francisco! I thank you for our excellence presentation on A&H QU32; it's mean a lot to many views especially myself. since QU series do not have 'direct out' I am wondering if you have tutorial or can teach me on how to split signal from main mixer to second mixer for broadcast/streaming which located far in the back room? should I use a splitter as we do on analog mixer or any different way, your help appreciated
Hi Daniel, I checked with my supplier and he said that for the Qu series you need to use an external splitter, either active or passive. If you want the split to be digital you need to move up to the SQ series, which can use the optional S-Link card to create a digital direct out.
@@GLBProductions Thank you so much for fast reply! at this time we need stay with QU series since involving installation; what kind external splitter you recomended? is that any splitter with Cat5 cable? Thanks again, I am looking froward to hear from you
You're welcome Daniel - the best splitter systems are custom-built for the application. I suggest that you contact the contractor who did your Qu32 installation and see what specific options they have, both from A&H as well as third party/custom.
Can you do a video on how to software to pc please.coz trying to understand how it works. Like what kind of software we use,or how to setup.its for recording..
ton of software out there question is are you mixing completely /totally digital? you will need a daw system at sone point to control it all no daw ==total chaos
Great job teaching this board. Question! If you are applying FX to a vocal mic on the LR master mix. Do you mix the FX into the chain using the returns or the sends? Is proper gain structure setting the send hotter, and applying only what you want to the mix bus with the RETURN fader? I'm trying to understand send and return levels better. Thanks
Good question PJ - the simple answer is either technique can be used. My approach is to use the send levels to regulate the balance of the effect amongst the various channels and the return to regulate the overall level of the effect. So for example if I want more reverb on mic A I will increase the effects send on channel A relative to channel B. If I want more reverb overall I will increase the vocal reverb effects return fader. If you have not done so already, I suggest you watch this video to ensure that you are clear on how this signal chain would work using an analog mixer and an external effects unit, because a digital mixer simply mirrors this but within the mixer's CPU: th-cam.com/video/GoIiofqEIyU/w-d-xo.html
Hello, great presentation! We have QU-16 mixer and we are trying to connect main LR as mono output to the Atlas amplifier and signal goes out to the Bose MA12 speakers. What we want to do is use 3 amplifiers all together with QU-16 mixer and have all three amps receive mono from this mixer. How can this be done! Any AH documentation on how this is done? Thanks!
It's possible to create a mono output from the main LR by simply ensuring that all pan controls are in the center position. On the other hand, if you need a true summed mono from the mixer that can be created by using the post-fader mix outputs.
@@GLBProductions Thanks for reply! I'll try this approach. Any chance will you be traveling to New England area, NYC or Boston, so that you can swing by our organization to setup mixer per our requirements? Of course, if that's possible. Thanks again!
@@GLBProductions BTW, I have tried your proposal, however connecting LR like you mentioned works great having same sound come out on all speakers we have. Basically we have QU-16 mixer Main LR output going directly into Atlas HPA2604 4 channel amplifier and from this amp running 4 Bose MA12 speakers. Inputs to the mixer are 4 mics, in first 4 channels, AKG C7 mics, with 48V phantom power ON. There's also 1 mic Shure SM7B connected to chan 1. We have trouble setting up proper gains on this mics due to feedback if gain is at 3o'clock. Of course we have to play with this but is there any docs on how to correctly manage feedback with this system? Something like use of frequency cuts info? Thanks!
Great Videos. When I connect Q32 mixer to my Canon VIXIA HF G21 for video recording, the recorded sound has some problems. There is a humming or a hissing sound between sentences or during a pause period. How can change that from happening?
I just have a quick question. If you do a live performance with different genre of music would you use the built in effect for the vocal or an external rack mount ones like lexicon ms 200 or Tc helicon...? We would appreciate also if you a video about live vocal effect. Thanks again all your video helped me a lot.
I don't suppose you have a video on how to use the different fx? I'm interested to know more about the adt for live worship. any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Hello Daryl there are no hard and fast rules on how to use the various effects - in general for live sound you will use a reverb and/or a delay on the vocals, and some sort of reverb on the drums. Beyond that you need to know what you are trying to achieve and work accordingly.
This was a great series on the QU. I am purchasing one soon and before i do, I would like to know how much control do you have of the extra input sources when you connect the D-snake unit? Does that expand the mixer channels in addition to the 32 controllable channels. Or am i still limited to control of 32, but, i can source from any of the available physical mic/line connections? I ask because i want to purchase the QU32 + 16ch dsnake to replace my analogue console. I Use my mixer as a patchbay and have my cabinets, outboard rack gear, cutting room mics, etc. all permanently wired up to the console on dedicated channels. And with the effects returns coming back into board, sometimes i need to track more than 32 channels at once. So will the D-snake increase my channel count or no, in that regards?
Hello Joseph, my understanding is that on the Qu32 you are limited to 32 mono plus three stereo inputs for a total of 38 inputs total. Getting the D-snake unit does not expand this it simply relocates the physical inputs from the back of the mixer to the rack unit. If you need more information I suggest you post a question over at the Allen and Heath forums :)
Hi I really hate to come right out and just ask for assistance with a particular function. Great series of videos by the way. Anyway. I'm trying to work out how to send the FOH Fx eg reverb to monitor mixes. Any assistance appreciated
No worries: first select the mix that you want to send the reverb to, then go to the layer of the mixer where the FX returns are located (I believe it is layer B). Then raise the appropriate FX return fader to send the FX to the monitor. The key is to then remember to switch back to the main mix!
@@GLBProductions Bewdy. thanks. More than a few artists are requesting reverb in their monitors but the boss wont work out how to do it as he claims it contributes to feedback.
Thanks a whole lot for this video, 'twas really helpful. In the video you said the mixer has 3 layers: The channel layer and the master layer; what is the third layer? Also, do you have a video that demonstrates how to do connections to the mixer (e.g. connecting the speakers, the monitors, the stage amplifier, processors, etc)
Thanks, but you did not answer the second part of my question. Do you have any video that demonstrates how to connect the FOH speakers, monitors, headphone monitors, etc to a mixer?
Thank you for some great videos; really helpful. I saw you did some on the Soundcraft Expression Si 1 also. I want to get a digital mixer for a small worship hall (with 4 vocalists, 2 guitars, 1 keyboard,) either the Qu16 or the Soundcraft Expression Si 1; which do you think is easier to use?
Hi there Steve! A lot depends on what you are used to, but if this is your first digital mixer I would say the Soundcraft is easier to use, just because of the ergonomics and visuals of the console.
Bruno,I've just put my hands on the QU16 chrome version today! But let me ask you some questions...because I've found it a little confusing :D 1) There are FX1 and FX2 button and the FX button itself near the HOME button... The FX button opens the FX menu which you can choose the FX right? But what about the FX1 and FX2 buttons since there are 4 effects to choose from? 2) How can I send an effect to an Aux send like the Mix1? First of all I've raised channel 1 fader (VOICE) and the master fader in the LR layer ,but after that I've tried unsuccesfully pressing the mix 1 layer raising the master fader and the SEND 1 and RETURN1 faders...
Haha you're not alone there brother, I find these mixers confusing if I don't use a specific model for even a short time! 1) The Qu16 has only two dedicated FX busses, unlike the 24- and 32-channel models. There are still 4 FX engines within the mixer but if you want to use FX3 and 4 you need to patch them to one of your other mix buses. This is done within the FX patching menu. 2) To send an FX return to one of the mixes first make sure that it is working in the LR mix. Then press mix 1 (for example), then press the top layer button (above the word custom) and raise the appropriate FX Ret fader - you should be able to see from the signal present buttons which FX engine is active. Double check that your FX Send fader is also raised and un-muted when in the LR mode. This has taken me several minutes of head-scratching during shows to work out...
@@GLBProductions 1) tell me if I get it correctly...there are 4 FX engines,so each of those can have a different effect based upon the choice in the FX menu...(example in the 1 I'll put a reverb,2 Delay, 3 Chorus and 4 another different reverb) BUT the one chosen in the FX1 can only go out of the FX1 Bus and the FX2 on the FX2 bus? While FX3 and FX4 they don't have their own dedicated output,so you have to choose in which output bus they'll go?In this case if I send them through a mix bus,I can't use that mix bus for monitors anymore? 2) So basically this is the procedure? - Press a mix bus button where is connected the monitor - Raise master fader and the FX RTN fader of the effect chosen (example FX1 = FX1 RTN) (unmute eventually) - Press LR buses button - Press Top Layer button - Raise FX1 Send fader (unmute eventually) Last thing...I know it sounds strange since that is common the opposite,but...what if I want the reverb ONLY in the monitor?is it possible? PS do you know if there is the software version where you can make practice? Last time I used one for Soundcraft UI and DiGiCo,but didn't find anything for this one...
Yes that sounds correct. Basically you have to remember to a) Choose an effect and assign it to one of the FX busses. b) Route signal to the FX bus & processor. c) Route the FX return signal to your desired mix bus. If you want FX only in the monitors just remove the FX rtn signal from the LR bus in the same way as you would remove any other signal - select LR bus, select the top layer, mute or bring down the FX rtn fader. With the QU series it is crucial to keep track of which mix bus is selected in the master section - I constantly remind my students to always press the LR select button after making any changes to ensure that the control service is defaulted back to the main mix. I believe that the iOS app for this mixer has a demo mode which allows you to practice.
Thank you very much Bruno!Next time I'll retry :D Unfortunately I have only Android,it would be awesome for pc instead... By the way,it sounded like you never knew what ADT effect is....in this case for the first time I will teach something to you :D ADT stands for automatic double tracking...the Double Tracking is a common technique in the studio,and consist to overdub an identical take on top of another to get a larger sound!For identical I mean the same vocal line but re-recorded and put together,because a duplicate track won't sound the same. Once you hear how it sounds,it will be easy to discover it in the records.John Lennon loved his voice doubled for example. now it becomes clear that ADT is an effec to recreate that sound even in live performances,but to be honest is only an emulation,nothing beats a well made double tracking in the studio ;)
You're welcome Cris, hope that works out for you 😊 The SQ series have full android support - for some reason it was never implemented for the Qu models... Thanks for the explanation of ADT! I remember reading about it in one of my books but didn't recognise the acronym 😂 A long time ago when I was doing a recording project I remember re-creating it manually by duplicating the vocal track and then adding a 20ms delay to the copy. Panned left and right it made the vocal sound bigger without adding any reverb, which was pretty awesome!
Hi. am migrating from analogue to digital console, what would you recommend between a Midas m32 live and Allen & Heath sq6? (to be used in a place of worship)
I would recommend the SQ but there are many factors to consider, especially after sales support and training availability in your region. Don't just choose the console, choose the company who is doing the installation and training.
Sure: press the appropriate mix select button on the right side of the console, raise the faders that correspond to the input channels that you want to send to the mix, then press the LR mix button to return to your house mix.
That was a superb learning experience. I have a question for you and it would be really, really helpful if you could answer it. Q. How do you route effects to the monitor mix. PS. I do have a Qu32.
Glad to hear that and thanks for watching! Routing effects to the monitors is the same as any other signal - you would press bus 1 (or whichever bus you're trying to route the signal to) and then find the master return fader for the FX engine that you are trying to route there, which will usually be on the second fader layer. Then simply bring that up until there is enough effect in the monitor.
Generally you use shorter reverbs (plate, room) for faster songs and longer reverbs (hall, church) for slower songs. Need to experiment and see what works best with your venue as well.
In a live mix situation is it possible to add different delay settings to different channels. I find that when I set a delay time for 1 channel it applies it to other channels using delay.
I have added an in ear monitor the mix 7-8. I get a clear sound of the channels dedicated. How can I get the talkback mic to talk directly to the in-ear?
With digital consoles it may be possible to connect them via Dante or similar audio networking tools, otherwise you will need to use the analog inputs and outputs.
Yes it's the same - press the appropriate MIX button and then raise the appropriate FX Ret fader, depending on which effects engine you want to send to that mix.
Thanks I did this, the Mics are all wonderful now, but why did the instrument have the EFX too even if i did not select them, the faders are all the way down?
I suggest you check the board carefully - it is possible that they are being sent to the effects via a group or you have missed one of the mix busses. If necessary reset the mixer and then see if the issue continues.
Is the FX only work for live? Im using Logic X as my DAW system and im having trouble getting the live FX through, it just comes as the clean signal as in PFL.. the FX comes out through the monitors but it records the dry signal only, how do i get the FX to come into my daw system?
thanks man! yeah it works like that, just have to create extra tracks for the dry and wet signal on the mac! cheers again its been hurting my brain for too long! hahah
The basic idea is that you multitrack record the actual band and then play it back through the mixer so that the inputs appear on the same channels as they would were the band actually there. It's a useful idea but works best for very large venues or acts that use in ear monitoring to reduce the effect of the stage volume on the front of house sound.
Sure no problem - just select the channel and then go through the channel routing screen to the mix sends screen, from there you can designate each mix send to be pre or post fader.
In the Qu, a sub-group allows for a single control for fader and dynamics (PEQ, Compressor, etc.) of multiple channels, whereas a DCA only provides fader control. Think of a DCA as remote volume control.
It acts more like a master. Individual fader levels would still be set for proper balance, then DCA would affect the entire group. A good example would be to bring the entire drum kit to the front for a solo, then lower for rhythm.
Yes this training was for live sound use and not recording. DAW setup will be program-specific, I suggest you consult the person who sold you the mixer.

Thank you so much for sharing this workshop. It helps to understand the QU-16 which I recently purchased.
You're welcome Bassie!
Excellent presentation. Thank you! I'll rock it tonight in the venue I'm working at!
+Sean Copson That's great! How did the gig go?
Thank You so much! I need this knowledges tommorow cause our band ordered that mixer for live performance! Last time I couldn't find FX , but now I understand the process! Thank You
That's great to hear, thanks for watching!
Just got a FOH gig where this is the mixer. Thank You!
You're welcome, all the best for your new gig!
Thank you, you are a great teacher lad! 😁 I wish you have covered also the groups ...
Thanks for watching Herbie.
Given that you presented this on the fly, l believe you did a great job. Well worth watching, thank you.
Thanks Bruce - I actually plan these training sessions carefully and have a lesson plan telling me which sections of the mixer to cover and in which sequence. So it was most certainly not done on the fly - wish I was that good an educator!

The "Wet" part killed me 🤭
All three of these videos (Part 1,2,3) by GLB are EXCELLENT. My band is expecting the arrival of the QU-16 in two days and I've been searching everywhere for a good nuts and bolts explanation of the QU series mixers. These 3 videos by GLB are by far the most effective on the planet, and that's for both novice and advanced users. Thank you, GLB!! You even made it fun! I do have a question: Are there sample tracks that one can use to experiment with the board? I know we can record the band but prior to us actually using it, let alone recording from it, it would be awesome to experiment with sample tracks to help get familiar.
Please advise if any of these exist. Thanks again.
Hello Matthew glad to videos have been helpful! When you say sample tracks do you mean for doing a virtual soundcheck? Or for practising your mixing skills?
Primarily for practicing mixing skills. For me, I'm only interested in live performance mixing, so it sure would be nice if there were some online songs available for the QU series to practice with. This will help with mixing skills, yes, but also would help aid in familiarity with moving around the board, etc.
To be honest with you Matthew I'm not sure about where you'd obtain such tracks, other than recording them yourself - perhaps ask the person who sold you the mixer? No doubt they are available from some third party :)
You're the best. I'll do that (check with my sales rep). Also, I am exploring Big Fish Audio as they sell tracks and loops etc., so in case you're ever interested yourself, go check them out at www.bigfishaudio.com. Cheers!
Good instructor. But also a good indication that these boards can be tricky even after using.
You can say that again!
thanks for the very simple explanation! I loved it

You're welcome, thanks for watching!
Super class
Dear GLB, Thanks for your awesome work. I watched your videos on Allen & Heath Qu-32 and will like to ask you a question. I sent all 32 channels over USB to my DAW and sent back the processed mix over the same USB to channels 31 and 32.
These channels were routed to my video switcher on mix 7-8.
The problem is that my mix 7-8 is also sending the unprocessed sound from all inputs instead of just sending 31 and 32 coming from the DAW. So I have a combination of processed and unprocessed sound coming from 7-8. How can I exclude channels 1 to 30 from mix 7-8?
Thanks.
Thanks for watching Samuel. Have you checked to see that all channel sends to mix 7&8 have been disabled? Make sure you check all the layers!
I just finished watching these training videos, parts 1-3. I want to say they were pretty darn good. My only disappointment was in how to apply an effect. I have the QU-16 Chrome (which works the same way) but I'm having a hard time getting them to work. Oh well, my quest continues.
Yes that can be tricky because you have to ensure that both the FX send and return are unmuted and turned up. If you are having trouble I suggest you go to the shop that sold you the mixer and get them to show you in person - it is much easier to learn these things if you can see and touch the mixer for yourself.
I finally understand, thank you!
Very glad to hear that :)
Hello Bruno. I have thoroughly enjoyed these trainings. I wanna ask a question. Can you interconnect 2 QU consoles to get more channels and if so, how does one do that? Thanks.
good teaching Allen & heath qu mixer
Thanks for watching!
thank you much
You're welcome Zuanhardie!
Yup A.D.T is a vox 'doubler'. Think George Martin Abby Road Studios.Great videos about to purchase either a TF1 or QU-24.This really helps.
Great to hear from you Martin! Be sure to test drive both mixers before buying - I find the controls on the TF1 to be less accessible than on the A&H.
Hi Bruno,Based on your review[s] I have decided to get the QU-16
E&E told me not stock for 'D-Snake' till Sept!.I am allergic or too old for analog looms..But Luther may have ex stock.
Yup try Luther for the mixer too - he often has better prices because he does so much retail.
Very informative vedio
Thanks for watching :)
Greeting from San Francisco! I thank you for our excellence presentation on A&H QU32; it's mean a lot to many views especially myself. since QU series do not have 'direct out' I am wondering if you have tutorial or can teach me on how to split signal from main mixer to second mixer for broadcast/streaming which located far in the back room? should I use a splitter as we do on analog mixer or any different way, your help appreciated
Hi Daniel, I checked with my supplier and he said that for the Qu series you need to use an external splitter, either active or passive. If you want the split to be digital you need to move up to the SQ series, which can use the optional S-Link card to create a digital direct out.
@@GLBProductions Thank you so much for fast reply! at this time we need stay with QU series since involving installation; what kind external splitter you recomended? is that any splitter with Cat5 cable? Thanks again, I am looking froward to hear from you
You're welcome Daniel - the best splitter systems are custom-built for the application. I suggest that you contact the contractor who did your Qu32 installation and see what specific options they have, both from A&H as well as third party/custom.
@@GLBProductions I see, I will look into it- thanks again
thanks a lot sir

You're welcome :)
Can you do a video on how to software to pc please.coz trying to understand how it works.
Like what kind of software we use,or how to setup.its for recording..
ton of software out there question is are you mixing completely /totally digital? you will need a daw system at sone point to control it all no daw ==total chaos
this guy is good explanation but i need to know how to send matrix output in this mixing console thank you
Great job teaching this board. Question!
If you are applying FX to a vocal mic on the LR master mix. Do you mix the FX into the chain using the returns or the sends? Is proper gain structure setting the send hotter, and applying only what you want to the mix bus with the RETURN fader? I'm trying to understand send and return levels better. Thanks
Good question PJ - the simple answer is either technique can be used. My approach is to use the send levels to regulate the balance of the effect amongst the various channels and the return to regulate the overall level of the effect. So for example if I want more reverb on mic A I will increase the effects send on channel A relative to channel B. If I want more reverb overall I will increase the vocal reverb effects return fader.
If you have not done so already, I suggest you watch this video to ensure that you are clear on how this signal chain would work using an analog mixer and an external effects unit, because a digital mixer simply mirrors this but within the mixer's CPU: th-cam.com/video/GoIiofqEIyU/w-d-xo.html
great stuff lah :)
Hello, great presentation! We have QU-16 mixer and we are trying to connect main LR as mono output to the Atlas amplifier and signal goes out to the Bose MA12 speakers. What we want to do is use 3 amplifiers all together with QU-16 mixer and have all three amps receive mono from this mixer. How can this be done! Any AH documentation on how this is done? Thanks!
It's possible to create a mono output from the main LR by simply ensuring that all pan controls are in the center position. On the other hand, if you need a true summed mono from the mixer that can be created by using the post-fader mix outputs.
@@GLBProductions Thanks for reply! I'll try this approach. Any chance will you be traveling to New England area, NYC or Boston, so that you can swing by our organization to setup mixer per our requirements? Of course, if that's possible. Thanks again!
@@GLBProductions BTW, I have tried your proposal, however connecting LR like you mentioned works great having same sound come out on all speakers we have.
Basically we have QU-16 mixer Main LR output going directly into Atlas HPA2604 4 channel amplifier and from this amp running 4 Bose MA12 speakers.
Inputs to the mixer are 4 mics, in first 4 channels, AKG C7 mics, with 48V phantom power ON. There's also 1 mic Shure SM7B connected to chan 1.
We have trouble setting up proper gains on this mics due to feedback if gain is at 3o'clock. Of course we have to play with this but is there any docs on how to correctly manage feedback with this system? Something like use of frequency cuts info? Thanks!
Great Videos. When I connect Q32 mixer to my Canon VIXIA HF G21 for video recording, the recorded sound has some problems. There is a humming or a hissing sound between sentences or during a pause period. How can change that from happening?
Switch off the auto-gain control.
I just have a quick question. If you do a live performance with different genre of music would you use the built in effect for the vocal or an external rack mount ones like lexicon ms 200 or Tc helicon...? We would appreciate also if you a video about live vocal effect. Thanks again all your video helped me a lot.
+Kertina Production Use whichever effect sounds better - the ones built into the mixer are fine for most purposes. Glad the videos have been helpful!
I don't suppose you have a video on how to use the different fx? I'm interested to know more about the adt for live worship. any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Hello Daryl there are no hard and fast rules on how to use the various effects - in general for live sound you will use a reverb and/or a delay on the vocals, and some sort of reverb on the drums. Beyond that you need to know what you are trying to achieve and work accordingly.
This was a great series on the QU. I am purchasing one soon and before i do, I would like to know how much control do you have of the extra input sources when you connect the D-snake unit? Does that expand the mixer channels in addition to the 32 controllable channels. Or am i still limited to control of 32, but, i can source from any of the available physical mic/line connections?
I ask because i want to purchase the QU32 + 16ch dsnake to replace my analogue console. I Use my mixer as a patchbay and have my cabinets, outboard rack gear, cutting room mics, etc. all permanently wired up to the console on dedicated channels. And with the effects returns coming back into board, sometimes i need to track more than 32 channels at once. So will the D-snake increase my channel count or no, in that regards?
Hello Joseph, my understanding is that on the Qu32 you are limited to 32 mono plus three stereo inputs for a total of 38 inputs total. Getting the D-snake unit does not expand this it simply relocates the physical inputs from the back of the mixer to the rack unit. If you need more information I suggest you post a question over at the Allen and Heath forums :)
Yeah, thats what i thought. Okay, thanks appreciate you!
You're welcome :)
Hi I really hate to come right out and just ask for assistance with a particular function. Great series of videos by the way. Anyway. I'm trying to work out how to send the FOH Fx eg reverb to monitor mixes. Any assistance appreciated
No worries: first select the mix that you want to send the reverb to, then go to the layer of the mixer where the FX returns are located (I believe it is layer B). Then raise the appropriate FX return fader to send the FX to the monitor. The key is to then remember to switch back to the main mix!
@@GLBProductions Bewdy. thanks. More than a few artists are requesting reverb in their monitors but the boss wont work out how to do it as he claims it contributes to feedback.
Thanks a whole lot for this video, 'twas really helpful. In the video you said the mixer has 3 layers: The channel layer and the master layer; what is the third layer? Also, do you have a video that demonstrates how to do connections to the mixer (e.g. connecting the speakers, the monitors, the stage amplifier, processors, etc)
You're welcome! The third layer is the custom layer.
Thanks, but you did not answer the second part of my question. Do you have any video that demonstrates how to connect the FOH speakers, monitors, headphone monitors, etc to a mixer?
The closest video I have to that would be this one: th-cam.com/video/NqTqJ4zOJJU/w-d-xo.html
Very helpful. Back to the QU32, how do I group channels together? I am not referring to DCA, but 1 mean the normal grouping of channels.
Very nice training series. Do you have anything to help with the Talkback setup?
Thanks for watching! No we did not cover that in this training - in any case I prefer to route my talkback through a normal mic channel.
Thank you for some great videos; really helpful. I saw you did some on the Soundcraft Expression Si 1 also. I want to get a digital mixer for a small worship hall (with 4 vocalists, 2 guitars, 1 keyboard,) either the Qu16 or the Soundcraft Expression Si 1; which do you think is easier to use?
Hi there Steve! A lot depends on what you are used to, but if this is your first digital mixer I would say the Soundcraft is easier to use, just because of the ergonomics and visuals of the console.
Bruno,I've just put my hands on the QU16 chrome version today!
But let me ask you some questions...because I've found it a little confusing :D
1) There are FX1 and FX2 button and the FX button itself near the HOME button...
The FX button opens the FX menu which you can choose the FX right?
But what about the FX1 and FX2 buttons since there are 4 effects to choose from?
2) How can I send an effect to an Aux send like the Mix1?
First of all I've raised channel 1 fader (VOICE) and the master fader in the LR layer ,but after that I've tried unsuccesfully pressing the mix 1 layer raising the master fader and the SEND 1 and RETURN1 faders...
Haha you're not alone there brother, I find these mixers confusing if I don't use a specific model for even a short time!
1) The Qu16 has only two dedicated FX busses, unlike the 24- and 32-channel models. There are still 4 FX engines within the mixer but if you want to use FX3 and 4 you need to patch them to one of your other mix buses. This is done within the FX patching menu.
2) To send an FX return to one of the mixes first make sure that it is working in the LR mix. Then press mix 1 (for example), then press the top layer button (above the word custom) and raise the appropriate FX Ret fader - you should be able to see from the signal present buttons which FX engine is active. Double check that your FX Send fader is also raised and un-muted when in the LR mode. This has taken me several minutes of head-scratching during shows to work out...
@@GLBProductions 1) tell me if I get it correctly...there are 4 FX engines,so each of those can have a different effect based upon the choice in the FX menu...(example in the 1 I'll put a reverb,2 Delay, 3 Chorus and 4 another different reverb) BUT the one chosen in the FX1 can only go out of the FX1 Bus and the FX2 on the FX2 bus?
While FX3 and FX4 they don't have their own dedicated output,so you have to choose in which output bus they'll go?In this case if I send them through a mix bus,I can't use that mix bus for monitors anymore?
2)
So basically this is the procedure?
- Press a mix bus button where is connected the monitor
- Raise master fader and the FX RTN fader of the effect chosen (example FX1 = FX1 RTN) (unmute eventually)
- Press LR buses button
- Press Top Layer button
- Raise FX1 Send fader (unmute eventually)
Last thing...I know it sounds strange since that is common the opposite,but...what if I want the reverb ONLY in the monitor?is it possible?
PS do you know if there is the software version where you can make practice?
Last time I used one for Soundcraft UI and DiGiCo,but didn't find anything for this one...
Yes that sounds correct. Basically you have to remember to
a) Choose an effect and assign it to one of the FX busses.
b) Route signal to the FX bus & processor.
c) Route the FX return signal to your desired mix bus.
If you want FX only in the monitors just remove the FX rtn signal from the LR bus in the same way as you would remove any other signal - select LR bus, select the top layer, mute or bring down the FX rtn fader.
With the QU series it is crucial to keep track of which mix bus is selected in the master section - I constantly remind my students to always press the LR select button after making any changes to ensure that the control service is defaulted back to the main mix.
I believe that the iOS app for this mixer has a demo mode which allows you to practice.
Thank you very much Bruno!Next time I'll retry :D
Unfortunately I have only Android,it would be awesome for pc instead...
By the way,it sounded like you never knew what ADT effect is....in this case for the first time I will teach something to you :D
ADT stands for automatic double tracking...the Double Tracking is a common technique in the studio,and consist to overdub an identical take on top of another to get a larger sound!For identical I mean the same vocal line but re-recorded and put together,because a duplicate track won't sound the same.
Once you hear how it sounds,it will be easy to discover it in the records.John Lennon loved his voice doubled for example.
now it becomes clear that ADT is an effec to recreate that sound even in live performances,but to be honest is only an emulation,nothing beats a well made double tracking in the studio ;)
You're welcome Cris, hope that works out for you 😊
The SQ series have full android support - for some reason it was never implemented for the Qu models...
Thanks for the explanation of ADT! I remember reading about it in one of my books but didn't recognise the acronym 😂 A long time ago when I was doing a recording project I remember re-creating it manually by duplicating the vocal track and then adding a 20ms delay to the copy. Panned left and right it made the vocal sound bigger without adding any reverb, which was pretty awesome!
Hi. am migrating from analogue to digital console, what would you recommend between a Midas m32 live and Allen & Heath sq6? (to be used in a place of worship)
I would recommend the SQ but there are many factors to consider, especially after sales support and training availability in your region. Don't just choose the console, choose the company who is doing the installation and training.
@@GLBProductions thank you, I appreciate
Can you briefly explain how to send a channel through a monitor mix (bus) that is pre-fader?
Sure: press the appropriate mix select button on the right side of the console, raise the faders that correspond to the input channels that you want to send to the mix, then press the LR mix button to return to your house mix.
That was a superb learning experience. I have a question for you and it would be really, really helpful if you could answer it.
Q. How do you route effects to the monitor mix.
PS. I do have a Qu32.
Glad to hear that and thanks for watching! Routing effects to the monitors is the same as any other signal - you would press bus 1 (or whichever bus you're trying to route the signal to) and then find the master return fader for the FX engine that you are trying to route there, which will usually be on the second fader layer. Then simply bring that up until there is enough effect in the monitor.
Thank you so much.
Hello. How to use it's effect such as reverb vocal plate, large hall, small hall?
Generally you use shorter reverbs (plate, room) for faster songs and longer reverbs (hall, church) for slower songs. Need to experiment and see what works best with your venue as well.
14:05 He was correct
Both terms are used in pro-audio - Digitally Controlled Attenuator comes from the A&H user manual.
In a live mix situation is it possible to add different delay settings to different channels. I find that when I set a delay time for 1 channel it applies it to other channels using delay.
You would need to use one effects engine for each type of delay you wanted to have. There are a total of four available so this shouldn't be an issue.
is it possible to make fader wave in qu32? if so then how to do it ?
Please explain what you mean by 'fader wave'.
What happens if we go to the second layer while monitor mix button is selected? Does that send the FX to the monitor mix?
Yes it does.
@@GLBProductions Thank you for the timely reply. 😀
In your mix sends around 4:00, if you pan hard left or right to make it mono send, will it still come out on both speakers?
Yes - the panning in this case affects only the aux sends.
@@GLBProductions Awesome thanks guys!
Thanks for the tutorial !! Can I get reverb on multiple channels and how can I get it that way ?
Sure, you just send whatever channels you want to have reverb to the appropriate reverb engine as demonstrated in the video.
Sir consol programe complited at last
Save the programe in case power problems. Delete programming pls replya
what actually happened at 9.19, the master fader became the fx2 return since you've activated the mix key fx2 button?
Correct - when the FX2 mix button is pressed the master fader becomes the master for that mix.
I have added an in ear monitor the mix 7-8. I get a clear sound of the channels dedicated. How can I get the talkback mic to talk directly to the in-ear?
+Doug Pogue Simply route the talkback mic to mix 7 and 8 as shown in the video.
Found it! Thanks. Also thanks for the videos. They are very helpful
+Doug Pogue You're welcome, thanks for watching!
How to connect two digital console two different brand just like dlive s7000 and midas m32
With digital consoles it may be possible to connect them via Dante or similar audio networking tools, otherwise you will need to use the analog inputs and outputs.
@@GLBProductions thankyou srr
Hi, I have the QU-24 but I guess it's the same like the 32's. How do send and regulate the EFX to the monitor?
Yes it's the same - press the appropriate MIX button and then raise the appropriate FX Ret fader, depending on which effects engine you want to send to that mix.
Thanks I did this, the Mics are all wonderful now, but why did the instrument have the EFX too even if i did not select them, the faders are all the way down?
I suggest you check the board carefully - it is possible that they are being sent to the effects via a group or you have missed one of the mix busses. If necessary reset the mixer and then see if the issue continues.
Is the FX only work for live? Im using Logic X as my DAW system and im having trouble getting the live FX through, it just comes as the clean signal as in PFL.. the FX comes out through the monitors but it records the dry signal only, how do i get the FX to come into my daw system?
+Cosmin Cantor I'm not an expert on this, but I suggest patching the FX returns to your DAW via the 'USB Audio' screen. Page 63 of the user guide ;)
thanks man! yeah it works like that, just have to create extra tracks for the dry and wet signal on the mac! cheers again its been hurting my brain for too long! hahah
+Cosmin Cantor That's great! All the best with your music.
Can you do a ĺive streaming setting with qu16 with computer tutorial
Thanks for the suggestion 🙂
thanks for the video. how to do virtual soundcheck with these mixer.
using usb or daw?
The basic idea is that you multitrack record the actual band and then play it back through the mixer so that the inputs appear on the same channels as they would were the band actually there. It's a useful idea but works best for very large venues or acts that use in ear monitoring to reduce the effect of the stage volume on the front of house sound.
Excellent tutorials, thank you.
You're most welcome.
How to Allen & Heath zed420 gain control? Plz show this plz
Please see my video on how to set gain on the mixing console, thanks.
Make a video sq 6
THHHHAAAANNNKKK YYYOOOUUU !!!!
how to setup post-fader aux mix if it is possoble on this console?
Sure no problem - just select the channel and then go through the channel routing screen to the mix sends screen, from there you can designate each mix send to be pre or post fader.
What is The difference between a DCA and a regular sub-group?
In the Qu, a sub-group allows for a single control for fader and dynamics (PEQ, Compressor, etc.) of multiple channels, whereas a DCA only provides fader control. Think of a DCA as remote volume control.
wheezchiz does the Dca directly affected the Chanel's levels or does it act moreike a mastee
wheezchiz does the Dca directly affected the Chanel's levels or does it act moreike a master
It acts more like a master. Individual fader levels would still be set for proper balance, then DCA would affect the entire group. A good example would be to bring the entire drum kit to the front for a solo, then lower for rhythm.
can i set the volume for band 1 set 2 set and 3 set from dca grup pls reply
Yes it can.
so sad there's no DAW training part.at least somebody know how to hook up the mixer and DAW.and what DAW are compatible.
Yes this training was for live sound use and not recording. DAW setup will be program-specific, I suggest you consult the person who sold you the mixer.
where is part 2 ????
