Allen & HeathQu-6D 32-Channel Digital Mixer With Dante
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around a 96kHz FPGA core, the Qu-6D combines 36 mix inputs, 25 motorized faders and a 7-inch capacitive touchscreen in a hands-on digital console. Its 16x16 Dante interface is part of the mixer, giving Dante-equipped systems a direct networking option. Four channel-strip layers and configurable SoftKeys let you arrange controls around the session, while six multi-FX engines and dedicated returns keep effects within the console workflow.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Live sound setups that need 36 inputs to mix and hands-on motorized-fader control.
- Studio sessions requiring multichannel USB-C or SD-card recording and playback.
- Dante-based systems needing a built-in 16x16 48/96kHz network interface.
