SQ5+ Overview

SQ5+ Compact and rack-mountable, the SQ5+ puts the full feature set into the smallest frame in the range. 17 motorised faders, 8 assignable SoftKeys and 4 built-in RackUltra FX engines give you flagship-tier processing and comprehensive hands-on control. Add the 19” rack kit and it’s as at home in a fixed installation as it is on the road.

Mixing Has Never Been Easier

A Bigger, Bolder Interface

SQ+ is centred around a responsive 9” touchscreen with an all-new dark GUI that is fast to navigate and easy to read in any mixing environment. Framed by high-grip illuminated encoders, it delivers an intuitive blend of visual feedback and hands-on control.

Drag-and-Drop Layout

Channels and mixes can be dragged and dropped to any strip, with custom naming and colour coding on the displays, letting you build a mixing environment that works for you.

At-a-Glance Metering

Each strip features our patented Chromatic channel metering system, giving you at-a-glance level indication down to -72dB thanks to LEDs with variable brightness and colour.

Accelerate Your Workflow

All SQ+ mixers feature assignable SoftKeys for quick access to the functions you use the most. The SQ6+ and SQ7+ also include assignable SoftRotaries for even more custom control.

World Class Processing & FX

Processing

Every input channel comes equipped with HPF, a super-fast gate with sidechain and filter, a freely assignable insert point, a musical 4-band parametric equaliser with RTA, and Peak/RMS compressor for control and shaping of levels and transients. Mixes include both a parametric and 28 band graphic EQ along with compressor as standard, all ready to switch in when required.

DEEP Processing

SQ+ supports the latest generation of DEEP processing add-ons – models of classic analogue hardware embedded directly into your channel and mix strips, adding no latency, and available on every channel simultaneously.

Effects

SQ+ is equipped with 8 RackExtra FX engines, each with its own dedicated stereo return, giving you access to the acclaimed RackExtra FX suite, featuring emulations of legendary reverbs, gated reverbs, delays, modulators and more.

Four built-in RackUltra FX engines take SQ+ further, each with dedicated stereo sends and returns. First developed for the flagship dLive system, and proven on international tours, the RackUltra FX suite of add-ons brings premium reverbs, vocal tuning and pitch processors, distortion, saturation, and more to SQ+. The 4 engines can also run RackExtra FX for maximum flexibility.

SQ+ 4You

SQ+ 4You allows up to 8 performers to control their own monitor mixes from their Android or iOS devices, freeing the audio engineer to focus on the front-of-house sound.

AMM

Automatic Mic Mixing

SQ+’s advanced Automatic Mic Mixers make it a natural choice for mixing conferences, panel discussions, and broadcast applications. Two independent 24 channel AMM’s can run simultaneously for two separate zones or combine into a single 48 channel AMM for larger events.

Built for the Real World

The live environment is unforgiving, so SQ+ is built to take it.

A robust all-metal chassis provides the strength and rigidity to handle the rigours of touring and installation alike, while the new carbon-on-graphite finish with black and white knobs and fader caps gives it a sharp, contemporary look that holds up under real-world use. Every SQ+ comes backed by a 2-year manufacturer’s warranty as standard.
