CQ-12T is the smallest mixer in the CQ range and is ideal for home recording and streaming, band rehearsals, small gigs, and speech applications. Mix Smarter. Work Faster. Sound Better. CQ takes their renowned processing and effects, adds exciting new assistive mixing tools, and packages it all up into the smallest, and most affordable, digital mixer series yet. Every input channel on CQ can be switched between two modes. Quick Channels offer instrument and application specific processing with the ability to dial in a full channel of processing via a single knob. Need more control? Switch to Complete Channels for advanced, in-depth tweaking of parameters. Setting the correct amount of gain for each channel isn't the most exciting task, and it quickly eats into your setup time with multiple channels to take care of. CQ's Gain Assistant quickly and accurately sets the optimal gain level for one or multiple input channels and continues to monitor levels during the performance to prevent any nasty peaks or surprises.
CQ's Feedback Assistant automatically detects and eliminates problem frequencies using up to 16 filters per output so you can mix with confidence - and forget about feedback. Pristine sound - you won't believe your ears. CQ draws on technology from their latest generation of live sound consoles to deliver audio quality previously unimaginable at this level of mixer. Pristine 96kHz audio is partnered with studio-grade onboard processing and an optimised suite of FX to set a new standard for what's possible with ultra-compact digital mixers. CQ introduces a new suite of high-quality, user-friendly reverb, delay and modulation algorithms with instrument-specific presets for speedy setup. Selected units feature the new FX Assist tool, automatically shaping the effects and dynamically responding to your input signal to ensure your mix is enhanced by FX, not engulfed. CQ makes it easy to handle multiple channels simultaneously with 4 DCAs, each capable of controlling the level of any combination of inputs, outputs, and FX, for simple single-fader control of multiple channels, such as a drum kit, without affecting their relative levels. There's also 4 Mute Groups, enabling you to mute and unmute multiple channels at once via a single button, perfect for muting all stage mics or monitor speakers.
