  • Incredible mixer and interface
Style: CQ-20B Digital Mixer
Bought this mixer to use with a couple 4 piece bands for in ear monitors, and also to record practices and shows. We were able to use it during a live show for monitoring and recording less than two weeks after receiving since we were already comfortable relying on it. I've never been able to get a recording of live band anywhere near this quality due to the setup generally required, but recording multitrack to SD only takes a few seconds to start once the inputs are already setup for monitoring. There are plenty of aux outputs so everyone can have their own mix, and bandmates were able to handle controlling their own levels after just a couple minutes of explanation. Previously used Focusrite Clarett+ with 8 extra channels over ADAT for similar purposes during practice, but the setup was too complex to bring to shows. And with a computer plugged in, reliability was a concern as there would be random cutouts at times. I expected the CQ-20B to struggle a bit as an interface when compared to the Focusrite, but I found it to work better and more reliably so far. The preamps are very clear and warm, though not as bright as the Focusrite with Air mode on, but this may actually be an advantage since I tended to leave Air on for all channels whether or not it was really necessary. The Auto Gain feature is incredible as well because it removes the need for nudging all the gain knobs down once everyone starts playing louder than they did for the sound check. As I am usually playing drums at that point, the convenience of this can't be overstated and only requires ensuring the gain for each channel starts above where needed to allow the gain assistant to turn it down to the ideal level. ... show more

  • Great Easy to Use, Sounds Awesome
Style: CQ-18T Digital Mixer
Amazing, responsive touch screen, lots of built in overly easy effects and settings but also gives you access to more than that. Out of the box felt intuitive and super compact with tons of I/O options.

  • Made for musicians portable has it all.
Style: CQ-18T Digital Mixer
If you run sound and play in a band at the same time this is the best option in my opinion. I ran sound at a casino and at many bars for many bands. This one is so great because you have full control with or without an IPad. No need for a router this built in one works well. Bluetooth also is a great feature. This was made for a musician. I have two RCF J8 column arrays and this mixer with my pedal board rig using a Strymon Iridium and other pedals stereo out two direct boxes for my guitar into two channels on this mixer. I can mic the rest of the band with 14 channels play Bluetooth music from my phone and hand my IPad to a friend when he comes out to see the band. I use Mixing Station app on my IPad. All this fits in my Toyota Matrix with the seats up. I am looking forward to using it as a live-stream mixer and as an audio interface for DAW. Using it tonight at a restaurant gig with a band. Playing guitar and running sound. ... show more

  • CQ-18T - mixed fillings
Style: CQ-18T Digital Mixer
I have been using this device for almost a year and it works well accept for one thing the USB B devices for whatever reason have connection issues and secondly when playing audio from another device the mixer drops the signal. So if you do not need to play audio from another device this will work well for you. ... show more

  • It is the GAME CHANGER!!!
Style: CQ-18T Digital Mixer
Love this thing!!! - going from analog boards to digital has been a little frustrating but this has almost been fun lol. Yeah there is a learning curve but it has been MORE than worth it. No more extra laptops for zoom calls (live in room), no more extra audio interfaces, no more aux in/out mix minus patches... Just build the scene and use the scene. This is a board that rewards prep. And maybe other boards do too but this is the only one that somehow made switching over (upgrading to digital) easy and rewarding. The only real negative is it would be nice to have one or two assignable (tactile) faders. If you need to make a (series of) moves in a hurry, she's a little clunky because you have to be where you need to be FIRST, then you have to tap "the thing you need" THEN you can start adjusting. Again just a little clunky but I WILL TAKE THAT ALL DAY for the trade off(s). ... show more
