Built on the revolutionary XCVI 96kHz FPGA engine, this console delivers the same high-resolution processing and ultra-low latency as its larger siblings, but in a size perfectly suited for touring rigs, corporate AV, and high-end hybrid studios. Whether you are a mixing engineer on a fly-date or managing a permanent installation, the SQ5+ provides the professional headroom and tactile precision needed to master any performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"The New Addition: SQ+\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FEe_llGZrMw\" height=\"636\" width=\"1131\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eXCVI 96kHz Core: Absolute Sonic Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe SQ5+ is driven by Allen \u0026amp; Heath’s proprietary XCVI FPGA engine, delivering a fixed, ultra-low system latency of less than 0.7ms. By processing audio at 96kHz with variable internal word lengths up to 96-bit, this architecture ensures massive dynamic summing headroom and perfect phase coherence. This technical achievement translates to a mix with incredible warmth, transparency, and a \"big desk\" sound that remains pristine even when pushing internal processing to the limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRackUltra FX: Flagship Processing Anywhere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eElevate your live sound with the RackUltra FX suite, bringing dLive-tier algorithms directly into your workflow. The SQ5+ features four dedicated RackUltra engines alongside eight standard RackExtra slots, providing 12 simultaneous stereo effects. From high-density \"Spaces\" reverbs and real-time vocal tuning to boutique saturators and harmonisers, these engines allow you to deploy studio-grade processing on stage with zero added latency, eliminating the need for fragile external plugin servers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe 9-Inch Command Centre: Precision Control\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWorkflow speed is redefined by the upgraded 9-inch capacitive touchscreen and the all-new high-contrast \"Dark GUI\". This interface offers significantly better visibility in challenging stage lighting, while the 17 motorised faders across six layers provide tactile control over 96 assignable channel strips. The combination of drag-and-drop channel layouts, color-coded patching, and dedicated physical rotaries for core processing (Gain, HPF, Gate, Comp, PEQ) ensures that essential parameters are always exactly where you need them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMain features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e48 processing channels powered by the high-resolution 96kHz XCVI FPGA engine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e17 motorised 100mm faders across 6 customizable layers for 96 assignable strips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16 local recallable XLR mic preamps and 12 local XLR outputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9-inch high-resolution capacitive touchscreen with an improved dark-themed interface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 simultaneous stereo FX engines including 4 dedicated RackUltra engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnhanced DSP headroom supporting latency-free DEEP processing add-ons on all channels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntelligent SLink port providing 128x128 expansion for remote I\/O and ME personal monitoring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated 32x32 USB-B audio interface for seamless multitrack recording and playback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual 24-channel Automatic Mic Mixers (AMM) for crystalline speech clarity in complex panel setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional 19-inch rack mounting kit for seamless integration into standard road cases and installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTech Specs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Digital Mixer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Sampling Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e 96kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcessing Channels:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48 Channels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem Latency:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt;0.7ms (Analogue In to Out)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Bus Count:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36 Total\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Word Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 96-bit processing precision\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocal Mic\/Line Inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16 x XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocal Line Outputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 x XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSLink Network Port:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128x128 GigaACE\/GX, DX, or dSnake protocols\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSB Audio Interface:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32x32 USB-B (Supports 48kHz and 96kHz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpansion Slot:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x SQ I\/O Port slot (Dante, Waves, MADI)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFaders:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17 x 100mm Motorized Faders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTouchscreen:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9-inch Capacitive Multi-Touch Screen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoftKeys:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (WxDxH):\u003c\/strong\u003e 440 x 514.9 x 198 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.5 kg (Unpacked)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Consumption:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75W Maximum Load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExplore the Allen \u0026amp; Heath SQ Series [SQ5+]:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.allen-heath.com\/hardware\/sq\/sq5plus\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Explore the Allen \u0026amp; Heath SQ Series [SQ5+]:\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.allen-heath.com\/hardware\/sq\/sq5plus\/\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Heath","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44194595635236,"sku":"ADSRS_SQ5plus","price":72555.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/8294\/files\/ADSRS_A_H_SQ5plusimg03.png?v=1779271979","url":"https:\/\/www.audiosaurus.co.za\/products\/allen-heath-sq5-48-channel-36-bus-digital-mixer","provider":"Audiosaurus ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
