Allen & Heath Qu-6D 38-In/24- Out 96K Digital Mixer w/ 25 Faders & DANTE

Allen & Heath has reimagined their iconic digital mixer with the new Qu series, featuring a powerful 96 kHz XCVI core that brings professional-grade processing to a familiar and beloved platform. The updated design maintains the classic Qu form factor while incorporating significant hardware improvements including enhanced microphone preamps and high-performance AD/DA converters that preserve every detail of your source material. Each channel now includes individual displays showing channel names, types, or socket numbers, plus chromatic metering for instant visual feedback, all controlled through a redesigned touchscreen interface.

Building on the original series’ reputation for intuitive “walk up and mix” operation, the new Qu adds four fully customisable layers and flexible routing options beyond the classic 1:1 configuration. More assignable SoftKeys optimise workflow efficiency, while the fast and responsive user interface makes navigation seamless for engineers transitioning from analogue consoles or those seeking quick setup capabilities.

The mixer now supports DEEP Processing, bringing acclaimed add-ons from Allen & Heath’s flagship dLive system to the Qu platform for the first time. Additionally, Feedback and Gain Assistants borrowed from the CQ series automatically handle problematic frequencies with up to 16 filters per output, removing setup stress and accelerating soundchecks. Extended connectivity options and optional Dante integration complete the package, making this new Qu series a comprehensive solution for modern mixing requirements.
