SQ4You: Custom monitor mixing app for Allen SQ consoles & Heath
Available for free for iOS and Android, this app for SQ mixers from Allen & Heath allows the artist himself to fully control his personal monitoring.
The new SQ4You monitor mixing app for SQ consoles from Allen & Heath Allows simultaneous connection of up to eight smartphones or tablets, This saves a lot of time and effort for the audio engineer who must simultaneously deal with FoH and monitor mixing.
How it works, Based on four wheel-type controls, It is powerful and easy to use, providing direct level controls over four groups, A Master Level and Silence. Double-clicking on a group gives access to other controls, including individual channel measurement, Stereo Panorama and Send Levels.
The app also offers the ability to assign custom names for groups, facilitating their rapid recognition, and a series of selection boxes does the same with the channels to the groups, so that the user can create their ideal personal mix.
