10.Resetting the Mixer
There are two ways to reset the Qu settings to give you a known starting point:
10.1 Reset Mix Settings – A starting point for mixing
This button in the Scenes screen resets the mixer to a
known starting point for mixing. It provides a quick way
to reset the processing, mixes and patching before a
show or after another user has finished with it.
All Scene parameters are reset to a factory default.
Parameters that are not stored in scenes are not
affected. This reset does not affect existing scenes and
libraries stored in the mixer.
If you want to keep your current settings then save
these as a Scene before resetting the mixer.
Note - This reset is not affected by the Global filter and
Safes settings but it does clear these.
Touch and hold the Reset Mix Settings button for 1
second until the confirmation screen appears. This
‘resets the board’ ready for mixing:
 All preamps are patched and have nominal mic
gain set and phantom power switched off, a good
start for vocal microphones,
 All EQ is switched in and set flat ready to start
adjusting tone,
 Gates and compressors are switched out but have
their parameters set ready for being switched in
for applications such as drum gating and vocal
compression,
 Channels are assigned to the mixes and FX with
their faders and send levels turned down ready to
start dialling into the mix,
 The mixes are set pre-fade and sourced post-EQ,
pre-compressor ready to be used as monitor
sends.
 The FX master and return faders are turned up
and default reverbs and delay patched ready for
you to hear the effects as soon as you raise a
channel send.
 The Mix master faders are turned up ready to hear
sound when you raise a channel send. The main
LR master is turned down to avoid unexpected
loud level in the PA.
 The Groups are unassigned and their master
faders turned down.
 The Matrix sends are assigned and their master
faders turned down.
Creating your own start settings – You can
start by resetting the mixer and then editing the
patching, levels and parameters to suit your starting
preferences. Name and store this as a Scene, for
example Scene 1 “Reset Board”.
Refer to the Qu Mixer Reference
Guide for further information on the
reset functions.
