USB &ldquo;A&rdquo; for rec/play and data (pen drive). Bluetooth input.&nbsp;<strong>RJ45 port</strong>&nbsp;for connection to router: controllable via app. Next-generation functions and algorithms: Gain and Feedback Assistant, Quick Processing, Assist FX, Automatic Mic Mixer, etc.</h1><p style="text-align: center;"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="469" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/gLKs5vQPf9g" title="Allen &amp; Heath CQ-12T Ultra-compact digital mixer" width="834"></iframe></p><h1 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Allen &amp; Heath technology in the CQ-12T</strong></h1><p style="text-align: justify;">The&nbsp;<strong>CQ digital mixer</strong>&nbsp;series is built around 96kHz FPGA processing technology, with a variable bit rate up to 96bit, capable of operating at an extremely low latency, less than a millisecond: &lt;0.7ms. The<strong>&nbsp;CQ-12T</strong>&nbsp;mixer has been designed for use wherever high-quality audio processing and summing are required. It can be used by bands, sound engineers, rental companies, in rehearsal rooms, as a main mixer in a small club, theater, bar, or as an additional mixer on stage.&nbsp;</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>New tools, effects, and intelligent functions</strong></h2><p style="text-align: justify;">The&nbsp;<strong>CQ mixer</strong>&nbsp;series features next-generation tools and effects for better, simpler, and faster mixing.&nbsp;<strong>There are 2 effect processors</strong>&nbsp;(send/return) called&nbsp;<strong>FX Assist</strong>&nbsp;integrated into the&nbsp;<strong>CQ-12T</strong>, which provide various reverb, delay, chorus, ADT, flanger, phaser, and various modulation algorithms, with specific presets for instruments and sound sources. These automatically and dynamically adapt to the processed signal.&nbsp;</p><p style="text-align: justify;">On the input channels, we can count on&nbsp;<strong>two distinct processing modes</strong>: the new and simplified &ldquo;<strong>Quick</strong>&rdquo; mode, which provides a one-knob style processor for each instrument type (with a single control) capable of managing a macro of parameters, and the &ldquo;<strong>Complete</strong>&rdquo; mode with all the individual parameters and processors we typically find on a digital mixer channel. Each channel can be configured independently, and you can switch from &ldquo;Quick&rdquo; to &ldquo;Complete&rdquo; mode at any time.&nbsp;</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The&nbsp;<strong>Gain Assistant</strong>&nbsp;function saves us time by automatically and accurately applying the correct gain value to the preamplifiers, while monitoring the situation to compensate &ndash; if necessary &ndash; the input level. It should also be noted that the Gain parameter value of the preamplifiers, being digitally controlled, will be stored in the scene, and can therefore be recalled when reopening it.&nbsp;</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The&nbsp;<strong>Feedback&nbsp;Assistant&nbsp;</strong>&nbsp;is available on each output to identify, filter, and then correct any feedback problems and unwanted bleed. It can be used in a simple &ldquo;single-button&rdquo; mode, or configured in detail via more in-depth controls.&nbsp;</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The&nbsp;<strong>AMM - Automatic Mic Mixer</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;is present on all input channels to help immediately improve voice intelligibility while also reducing background noise.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Allen &amp; Heath CQ-12T Connections</strong></h2><p style="text-align: justify;">This mixer offers 12 analog inputs: 10 mono mic/line and 1 stereo line (L and R &frac14;&rdquo; TRS jack). The 10 mic/line inputs are divided into 5 on Combo connectors (Jack/XLR) and another 5 on XLR. A total of 13 channels (10 mono and 3 stereo) considering the two digital stereo inputs&nbsp;<strong>Bluetooth</strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>USB A</strong>&nbsp;(for audio playback from a pen drive). In addition to the stereo&nbsp;<strong>Main Out</strong>&nbsp;on XLR (L/R) connectors,&nbsp;<strong>Allen &amp; Heath CQ-12T&nbsp;</strong>provides&nbsp;<strong>6 Aux Monitor outputs&nbsp;</strong>on &frac14;&rdquo; TRS Jack (balanced) connectors. An&nbsp;<strong>RJ45 port</strong>&nbsp;is present for connection to a wireless router for remote control via app.&nbsp;</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Multitrack recording and playback</strong></h2><p style="text-align: justify;">With the&nbsp;<strong>Allen &amp; Heath CQ-12T&nbsp;</strong>you have the freedom to record and play back multitrack audio up to&nbsp;<strong>16 In and 18 Out&nbsp;</strong>on an SD Card inserted into the dedicated slot on the panel, or on PC and MAC computers using the integrated&nbsp;<strong>USB audio interface&nbsp;</strong>(Type B port). The&nbsp;<strong>maximum recording limit on an SD Card</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;is regulated by the supported formatting standard, which is&nbsp;<strong>FAT32</strong>, which for multitrack recording at 48kHz is approximately 8 hours; 4 hours are supported for multitrack recordings at 96kHz. This corresponds to approximately 72GB of occupied space.&nbsp;<strong>NB</strong>: Class 10, UHS speed class 1 SD Cards, not less than 10MB/s, are recommended.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>CQ-MixPad and CQ4You apps for Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS</strong></h2><p style="text-align: justify;">Control the mixer from your computer, smartphone, or tablet thanks to the two free applications for Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS operating systems.&nbsp;<strong>CQ-MixPad</strong>&nbsp;gives you complete control over your&nbsp;<strong>Allen &amp; Heath CQ mixer</strong>, while with&nbsp;<strong>CQ4You</strong>&nbsp;each musician, singer, or performer can adjust their own mix.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Accessories for your&nbsp;</strong><strong>CQ-12T</strong>&nbsp;mixer</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">You can rack-mount your&nbsp;<strong>CQ-12T&nbsp;</strong>mixer using the dedicated&nbsp;<strong>CQ12T RK19&nbsp;</strong>kit (Algam EKO code: GAL61931902). The semi-rigid case with handle and shoulder strap&nbsp;<strong>CQ 12T SOFTCASE</strong>&nbsp;is also available (Algam EKO code GAL61931901), for convenient transport.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Allen &amp; Heath CQ-12T Features</strong></h2><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; 13-channel digital mixer&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; 7&rdquo; multi-touch screen</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; Mono Mic/Line inputs: 10 (5 combo XLR/Jack, 5 XLR)</p><p style="margin-left:54.0pt;">&bull; Linkable mono channels</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; Stereo inputs: 1 (L+R) &frac14;&rdquo; TRS Jack, Bluetooth, USB A</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; Outputs: 1 Main XLR, 6 Aux Monitor (&frac14;&rdquo; TRS Jack)</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; Assignable headphone output on &frac14;&rdquo; TRS Jack</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; USB &ldquo;B&rdquo; audio interface for PC/Mac 16In, 18Out&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; SD Card recording/playback 16In, 18Out</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; Record/Playback from USB &ldquo;A&rdquo; with dedicated channel</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; Bluetooth stereo input with dedicated channel</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; 2x FX Assist&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; 3x Custom SoftKeys</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; Dual Footswitch</p><p style="margin-left: 54pt; text-align: justify;">&bull; Dimensions and weight: 290.4x241.9x88.2mm; Weight: 2.4KG</p>
