Connectivity: Build and Adapt
SQ-Rack is a versatile solution featuring local I/O alongside an intelligent SLink port, integrating seamlessly with Allen & Heath’s Everything I/O ecosystem. Expand further with option cards for Dante, Waves, MADI, or additional SLink capabilities. Multichannel USB support enables easy recording and playback, whether connecting to a computer or directly to an external drive.
Control: Tailored to your needs
With a dedicated fader screen, customisable SQ-Control display, and tactile, hands-on controls, users can work with maximum efficiency. The SQ MixPad, SQ-4You, and SQ- Control apps offer unmatched flexibility, allowing operators to take command from anywhere.
Product Manager Keith Johnson remarks, “We’ve had many requests over recent years for a rack mount SQ, with no faders, so we built it! I’m proud of the SQ-Rack control options, easy touchscreen access to faders, and the ‘SQ-Control’ screen and app, which give quick access and simplified custom control.”
Nicola Beretta, Director of Product, adds, “SQ-Rack is designed for versatility. Ideal for installations that need band mixing, setups without an FOH position, or delivering consistent, high-quality IEM mixes on tour.”
