Use it as a main mixer in a small venue or a sub mixer on a larger stage.
The CQ-18T mixer utilizes a 7″ capacitive touchscreen interface to easily navigate and control the robust mix engine that comes complete with several assistants to help your mixes sound their best including a gain assistant, feedback assistant, FX assist engine, and Automatic Mic Mixer (AMM). Take control of the full complement of channel strip effects like EQ, compression, and gating that’s available on every channel, and set up several sub mixes for monitoring and effects. The CQ-18T features 16 mic/line XLR/combo XLR-1/4″ inputs, a pair of balanced 1/4″ TRS inputs, and two XLR main outputs as well as six 1/4″ mix outputs.
