    Description

    The Allen & Heath CQ-18T is an ultra-compact 18-channel digital mixer engineered to deliver professional audio performance with advanced processing and intuitive control. Powered by 96kHz FPGA technology, the CQ-18T ensures high-resolution sound quality, low latency and exceptional clarity across live sound, studio recording, streaming and corporate AV applications.

    A responsive 7-inch capacitive touchscreen combined with a rotary control interface provides streamlined hands-on operation, enabling fast setup and efficient mix management. Built-in dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz) allows direct wireless control without the need for external networking hardware, while integrated Bluetooth supports convenient stereo audio streaming from mobile devices.

    The CQ-18T features a comprehensive 24x22 USB audio interface for multitrack recording and playback to a computer, alongside 24x22 SD card recording and playback for standalone capture. Four onboard FX engines provide high-quality reverb, delay and modulation effects, delivering flexible sound shaping for both music and speech-based environments.

    Intelligent assistive tools, including Gain Assistant, Feedback Assistant and Automatic Mic Mixer (AMM), simplify setup and optimise performance, particularly in conference and presentation settings. Three custom SoftKeys and three assignable SoftRotaries allow personalised workflow configuration, enhancing operational efficiency.

    Compact, powerful and highly adaptable, the Allen & Heath CQ-18T offers a versatile digital mixing solution for musicians, engineers and AV professionals requiring advanced features within a portable format.
