CQ-18T is the largest desktop mixer in the CQ range and is ideal for gigging bands, rehearsal spaces, home recording and streaming, speech applications and corporate AV. CQ takes our renowned processing and effects, adds exciting new assistive mixing tools, and packages it all up into our smallest, and most affordable, digital mixer series yet. Every input channel on CQ can be switched between two modes. Quick Channels offer instrument and application specific processing with the ability to dial in a full channel of processing via a single knob. Need more control? Switch to Complete Channels for advanced, in-depth tweaking of parameters. Setting the correct amount of gain for each channel isnt the most exciting task, and it quickly eats into your setup time with multiple channels to take care of. CQs Gain Assistant quickly and accurately sets the optimal gain level for one or multiple input channels and continues to monitor levels during the performance to prevent any nasty peaks or surprises.CQ introduces a new suite of high-quality, user-friendly reverb, delay and modulation algorithms with instrument-specific presets for speedy setup. Selected units feature our new FX Assist tool, automatically shaping the effects and dynamically responding to your input signal to ensure your mix is enhanced by FX, not engulfed. CQ-18T gives you all the tactile control you need to get around the interface quickly. A 7 touchscreen and rotary control make it simple to set up and get mixing, and the 3 Custom Rotaries and SoftKeys allow you to access commonly used functions with just your muscle memory. The free CQ MixPad app also gives you full control of your mix from anywhere in the venue thanks to the built-in WiFi.Main Features:19x Inputs to Mix (16x Mono/Linkable, 3x Stereo)Stereo MainLR Output6x Aux Outputs (Linkable up to 3x Stereo)8x XLR Mic/Line Input Sockets8x XLR/Jack Combi Mic/Line Input SocketsStereo Line Input (2x TRS)2x XLR Output Sockets (MainLR)6x TRS Output Sockets2x Stereo Headphone OutputsDedicated Stereo USB Input to MixDedicated Stereo Bluetooth Input to Mix96kHz Input/Output Processing4x Multi-FX EnginesBuilt-In Dual Band WiFi (CQ as Host)RJ45 Network Socket (CQ as Client)USB-A For Stereo Audio Record/Playback and DataUSB-B For Multichannel Audio Record/Playback (24×22)SD Card Slot for Multichannel Audio Record/Playback (24×22)7 Capacitive Touchscreen with 5x Screen Keys and Associated Rotary Encoder3x Configurable SoftRotaries3x Configurable SoftKeysConfigurable Single/Dual Footswitch Connection12V DC Power Inlet with switch, External Worldwide PSU suppliedControl Via Free Apps Windows/MacOS/iOS/AndroidSpecifications:InputsMic/Line Inputs (Balanced XLR, Balanced XLR/TRS Combi, fully recallable preamp)Phantom Power: +48V (+3V / -2V)Input Sensitivity: -60 to +0dBuLine Inputs (Combi Sockets): -20dB Pad (Fixed)Analogue Gain: 0dB to +60dB, 1dB stepsMaximum Input Level: +17dBu (XLR), +30dBu (TRS)Input Impedance: >1.5k (XLR), >10k (TRS)THD+N, Unity gain 0dB: 0.002% -92dBu (20Hz-20kHz, USB soundcard, @0dBu 1kHz)THD+N, Mid gain +30dB: 0.004% -88dBu (20Hz-20kHz, USB soundcard, @-30dBu 1kHz)Stereo Line Input:Stereo Line Input Connection: Balanced, 1/4″ TRS Jack, Normalled (Left/Mono)Input Sensitivity: Nominal +4dBuTrim: +/-24dBMaximum Input Level: +21dBuInput Impedance: >10kOutputs:Main LR Outputs (Balanced, XLR)Outputs 1-6: Balanced, 1/4″ TRS JackOutput Impedance: <75Nominal Output: +4dBu = 0dB meter readingMaximum Output Level: +22dBuResidual Output Noise: -88dBu (muted, 20Hz-20kHz)System:System (Measured balanced XLR in to XLR out, 0dB gain, 0dBu input)Dynamic Range: 110 dBFrequency Response: +0/-0.5dB 20Hz to 20kHzHeadroom: +18dBInternal operating Level: 0dBuTHD+N, Mic routed to Main L/R Out: +10dBu input, 0dB system gain, 0.003%, -92dB (Relative, 20-20kHz)dBFS Alignment: +18dBu = 0dBFS (+22dBu at XLR output)Meter Calibration: 0dB meter = -18dBFS (+4dBu at XLR output)Sampling Rate: 96kHzBit Depth: Custom bit depth, up to 96-bitLatency: <0.7mS, Local Mic Input to Main L/R, with all processing in or outOperating Temperature Range: 0 C to 40 C (32 F to 104 F)Power: 12V DC, 5A (100-240V AC, 50/60Hz input PSU supplied), 35W maxRecord/Playback:USB-A:Stereo Record: 48/96 kHz, 24-bit WAV format.
