Allen & Heath: Qu-6

Next-Gen Mixing Power in a Compact Frame

The Allen & Heath Qu-6 is a next-generation 38-in/24-out digital mixer that blends the trusted Qu series design with cutting-edge technology and enhanced flexibility. Designed for live sound, studio and broadcast applications, the Qu-6 delivers pristine 96kHz audio, intuitive control, and powerful processing in a compact, road-ready format.

96kHz XCVI Core
At the heart of the Qu-6 is Allen & Heath’s flagship XCVI FPGA engine, delivering ultra-low latency, high-resolution audio, and advanced DEEP processing capabilities for every input and output channel.

Expanded I/O
The Qu-6 offers 38 inputs and 24 outputs, including 24 XLR/Jack ‘combi’ mic/line inputs, 2 stereo line inputs, 16 XLR outputs, and AES3 digital output. It’s built to handle complex routing and large channel counts with ease.

25 Motorised Faders & 7” Touchscreen
Featuring 25 smooth 100mm motorised faders and a vibrant 7-inch capacitive touchscreen, the Qu-6 provides hands-on control with four fully customizable layers and eight assignable SoftKeys for a personalised workflow.

Studio-Grade FX & Processing
Equipped with six studio-quality Multi-FX engines, each with dedicated returns, and DEEP processing tools including EQ, compression, gating, and delay, the Qu-6 ensures professional-grade sound shaping.

Flexible Recording Options
Record and playback up to 32 channels via USB-C or SD card, or use the USB-A port for stereo recording/playback. Ideal for capturing live performances or multitrack sessions without external gear.

Everything I/O & SLink Connectivity
The SLink port allows seamless integration with Allen & Heath’s Everything I/O ecosystem and other A&H consoles, supporting up to 128×128 channels of 96kHz audio for scalable system expansion.
