Quick Start Guide

8 Mic Input For plugging in low level sources such as microphones
or DI boxes. The preamp uses a balanced XLR socket and has a wide
gain range from -5dB to +60dB. 48V can be switched to the XLR for
condenser mics and active DI boxes that require phantom power.
Qu-SB provides 32 channels with 16 local input preamps. You can
access the additional preamps for the full 32 channels using an optional
AudioRack plugged into dSNAKE.
To avoid loud thumps, mute the channel before plugging in cables or
equipment while 48V is on.
9 Line Input For plugging in line level signals. The input uses a
balanced ¼TRS (Tip, Ring, Sleeve) jack and has a fixed 10dB pad to
handle from low to very high level line signals. For unbalanced sources
use a mono jack or link ring to sleeve within the TRS stereo jack.
Channels can be linked as odd/even pairs so you can use these inputs
to directly plug in stereo sources such as keyboards, samplers and
media players.
For high impedance, low level sources such as acoustic instrument
pickups use DI boxes plugged into the Mic inputs
Plug into either Mic or Line. Do not plug into both on the same
channel.
10 ST1 Input For plugging in a line level stereo source such as a
media player for walk-in music. Uses a pair of balanced ¼” TRS jack
inputs with the L input switching through the R socket so that you can
also work with a mono source by plugging into just the L/M input.
To work with RCA phono connections use jack to RCA converter plugs.
11 Mix Outputs Balanced XLR line level outputs for mono Mix1-4
and stereo Mix5-6 to 9-10. Connect to nominal +4dBu or 0dBu line level
equipment. Maximum output is +22dBu.
12 LR Output A pair of balanced XLR line level outputs for the main
LR FOH mix.
13 MTX1-2 Output A pair of balanced ¼” TRS jack line level outputs
to access stereo Matrix 1-2. You can route any combination of mixes,
groups and LR to the matrix, ideal for creating a useful utility mix for
stereo recording, broadcast zone sends and more.
Qu-SB provides local outputs for Mix1-10, LR and MTX1-2. You can add
more output sockets and access the stereo Group and second matrix
outputs using an optional AudioRack plugged into dSNAKE.
14 Headphone Output Lets you monitor any channel or mix signal
within the mixer using the PAFL buttons in the Qu-Pad app. Use good
quality low impedance stereo headphones. Adjust the level using the
Phones control.
To prevent damage to your hearing start with the Phones level turned
down and avoid listening to loud volume for extended periods.
15 Qu-32 Core Qu-SB is the smallest model in the Qu range but uses
the same 32 channel DSP mix engine as the largest model, the Qu-32.
Channels and outputs not available locally at the Qu-SB can be patched
from/to sockets on a remote AudioRack via dSNAKE.
