The Allen & Heath SQ-5 is a compact, tour-ready 48-channel digital mixer built around a 96 kHz FPGA engine for pristine sound and ultra-low latency. Its fast workflow combines a responsive 7-inch capacitive touchscreen with 17 motorised faders over six layers, per-channel LCDs and eight assignable SoftKeys for confident operation in demanding environments. DEEP processing options let you run premium channel and bus plug-ins directly on the console without external DSP.
Comprehensive routing includes 12 stereo mixes plus up to three stereo (or six mono) matrices, and eight internal stereo FX engines with dedicated stereo returns reduce the need for outboard. For recording and playback, a 32x32 USB audio interface supports multitrack, while SQ-Drive enables direct recording to USB media. Connectivity is rounded out with AES output and an SLink port for remote expanders and stageboxes, with optional Dante or Waves 64-channel networking via add-on card. At just 10.5 kg and rack-mountable, SQ-5 delivers big-desk capability in a portable footprint.
Ideal for live sound, corporate AV, houses of worship and theatre.
