Qu-Pac Getting Started Guide 12 AP9815 iss2
Phones - Level trim and standard ¼” jack socket for plugging in
headphones to listen to the mixer PAFL (monitor) signal.
Alt Out - Level control for the stereo ‘alternative’ local output available on
the rear panel. The source to this output is patched using the Setup / Output Patch
/ Surface screen. For example you could access a stereo Matrix output here.
Note – For more information on setting up and operating Qu-Pac download the Qu
Mixer Reference Manual from the Allen & Heath web site.
7. Audio Signal Processing
The following diagram shows the available Qu-Pac signal flow and processing. A more detailed diagram
and further information is available within the Qu Mixer Reference Guide which can be downloaded from
the Allen & Heath website.
All input and output channels have the processing shown here at all times. For
example, every mix has a 1/3
rd
octave Graphic EQ, a 4-band Parametric EQ,
Compressor and Delay. No need to patch from a limited resource.
The internal FX provides 4 slots for loading from several effects types available.
These can used for Send/Return effects (reverb, delay) or inserted into any channel
or mix.
A Ducker function is available. You can choose to insert either an FX or the Ducker
at the Input channel or Group insert points. Each channel can have its own settings
(single mode) or multiple channels can share the same settings (ganged mode).
