Qu-Pad Ipad App - ALLEN & HEATH Qu-16 User Manual

10. Qu-Pad iPad app

Qu-Pad is an engineer's mixing tool providing wireless mobile control for the Qu mixer. It gives you the
freedom to walk the room or stage and control the sound right where it is needed. Qu-Pad is intended for
live mixing control, not for system setup or memory access. Qu-Pad and the Qu console can work
together to provide simultaneous control of independent functions, for example one engineer using the
console to mix front-of-house sound, and another using the iPad to mix monitors on stage.
Qu-Pad detects which Qu mixer model is connected.
Note - This version of Qu-Pad supports only one iPad connection at a time.

Note –The Qu-Pad app and the Qu mixer firmware
must have the same feature release number (1.N), but
can have a different maintenance number (x) where:
Firmware version =
Wireless router - For information on choosing and
setting up a wireless router, refer to the Help Manual
built into the Qu-Pad app and to the manufacturer's
setup guide that comes with the router.
Qu mixer Network settings – The Qu mixer and
wireless router must have compatible TCP/IP
addresses. We recommend setting the mixer to DHCP
for the typical application where the Network port
connects to the router only. This means the mixer will
be given an IP address automatically by the router. Go
to the Setup / Network screen to check this setting.
Channel naming – Input channels, mixes, FX and
mute groups can be named with up to 5 characters.
These names are stored along with the Custom Layer
settings on the iPad. They do not appear on the Qu
mixer and are not part of the Scene or Show
memories.
Using Qu-Pad – Refer to the Help Manual built into the
Qu-Pad app for instructions on how to set up and
operate Qu-Pad.
