Allen & Heath Qu-7 38-Channel Digital Mixer

Allen & Heath Qu-7 Delivers 38 Inputs of Pro Mixing Power for Church Audio The Allen & Heath Qu-7 provides 38 inputs to mix and 32 mic preamps with intuitive 7-inch touchscreen control for church audio teams. Moreover, this 96kHz digital mixing console features 33 motorized faders and four customizable layers for personal workflow setups. Additionally, six built-in Multi-FX engines deliver studio-quality reverb, delay, and modulation without external processors. Furthermore, church sound teams report increased volunteer confidence after switching from confusing analog boards to this approachable digital console. Touchscreen Interface Simplifies Complex Mixing for Volunteers and New Operators Traditional digital mixers overwhelm new users with countless buttons and confusing menus that frustrate church volunteers. However, the Qu-7 features a bright 7-inch capacitive touchscreen providing instant access to every channel, mix, and effect. Consequently, volunteers feel confident running sound after just one training session, eliminating Sunday morning stress for everyone. Additionally, four customizable fader layers let each operator organize channels exactly how they prefer, making the workflow feel personal. Wireless Tablet Control Lets You Mix from Any Seat in the Sanctuary Standing behind the console prevents engineers from hearing what your congregation actually experiences throughout the venue. Fortunately, the Qu-7 supports complete wireless control via the free Qu-MixPad app on iPad, Android, Windows, or Mac. Subsequently, you mix from any location, ensuring consistent sound quality in every seat of your sanctuary. Meanwhile, monitor engineers walk the stage adjusting personal mixes without constantly returning to the console position between songs. Motorized Faders and Scene Recall Save Time During Service Transitions Manually adjusting dozens of faders between worship segments creates stress and often results in audible mistakes. Conversely, the Qu-7 features 33 motorized 100mm faders that automatically move to saved positions when you recall a scene. Therefore, transitioning between worship, teaching, and special music happens instantly with consistent results every Sunday. Furthermore, scene memory means you store complete settings for every band configuration and service type your church runs. Six Pro-Grade FX Engines Eliminate the Need for External Processors Buying separate reverb units, compressors, and EQ processors adds thousands of dollars to traditional audio system budgets. However, the Qu-7 includes six studio-grade Multi-FX engines covering reverb, delay, modulation, and dynamics with dedicated stereo returns. Consequently, you achieve professional sound without purchasing outboard gear or learning complicated external equipment for your church installation. Additionally, four-band parametric EQ on every channel provides precise tone shaping that previously required dedicated rack equalizers. Built-In Recording Captures Services and Enables Virtual Soundcheck Recording services with external equipment creates complicated setups and potential failure points that cause missed recordings. Fortunately, the Qu-7 features an integrated 32×32 USB-C audio interface plus 32-channel SD card recording without a computer. Therefore, you capture complete services, rehearsals, and special events using just a laptop or even an SD card alone. Moreover, virtual soundcheck functionality lets you refine mixes using previous recordings during weeknight setup time before Sunday. Everything I/O Expansion Grows Your System Without Replacing the Console Outgrowing your mixer usually means buying a new console and reselling the old one — but not with the Qu-7. Specifically, the 128×128 intelligent SLink port connects to Allen & Heath’s Everything I/O stage boxes and rack expanders. Therefore, you grow from 32 onboard inputs to massive multi-room systems without ever replacing this digital console. Additionally, the Qu-7 networks with other Allen & Heath digital systems, future-proofing your investment for many years.
