Allen & Heath - Pack Qu-32 Chrome Edition + Decksaver

With the Qu-32, Allen & Heath offers you an intuitive audio control station, without compromising on rich functionality. Each mic is assigned directly to a fader, so there's no need to juggle layers and you can get straight to the point. For those who have always worked on an analogue console, getting to grips with it is a natural process, and reflexes become established as soon as you start using it. The colour touchscreen and rotary encoder give you instant access to every parameter. The physical SuperStrip provides immediate access to essential functions. Everything is designed to keep you focused on what matters most: the quality of your mix.

In the field, audio reproduction is surgically precise. Allen & Heath have integrated their AnalogiQ preamps into the Qu-32, renowned for their transparency and fine control of gain in 1dB steps. The low-latency 24-bit converter completes the processing chain, guaranteeing a clean, warm signal. The result retains an appreciable musicality, even when levels rise.

When it comes to effects, the Qu-32 spares no expense: 4 stereo RackFX engines let you add reverbs, delays, flangers or modulations without blocking your input channels. Each FX return even has its own 4-band EQ. You can shape your effects without affecting the rest of the mix. There's plenty for creative types to enjoy, without routing becoming a headache.

The unexpected bonus? The Decksaver supplied. Made from rigid, transparent polycarbonate, it moulds to the shape of the Allen & Heath Qu-32 console without needing to be disconnected. It provides effective protection against dust, knocks and splashes. Whether you leave the Qu-32 in a club or take it out on a regular basis, this cover limits the damage caused by everyday use. A simple but reassuring precaution.
