Used Allen & Heath CQ-20B Digital Mixer

Description

The Allen & Heath CQ-20B is a powerful, compact digital mixer designed for musicians, live sound engineers, bands, houses of worship, and recording professionals who need exceptional sound quality and flexible mixing capabilities without the bulk of a traditional mixing console.

Part of Allen & Heath's innovative CQ series, the CQ-20B combines professional digital audio processing with an ultra-compact, stagebox-style design. Its screen-free, fader-free construction makes it an excellent choice for performers and engineers who prefer to control their mix wirelessly from a tablet, smartphone, or computer.

The CQ-20B features 20 input channels and a versatile selection of microphone and line connections, allowing it to accommodate full bands, drum microphones, vocalists, keyboards, acoustic instruments, and other audio sources. Its compact footprint makes it especially useful for live performances where stage space is limited.

One of the mixer’s standout features is its 96kHz audio processing, delivering detailed sound quality with excellent clarity and dynamic response. Allen & Heath's professional audio engineering ensures that the CQ-20B is equally capable of handling delicate acoustic performances and powerful full-band mixes.

The mixer includes Allen & Heath's intelligent Quick Channels, which simplify the mixing process by providing streamlined controls tailored to different source types. For engineers who prefer detailed manual control, Complete Channels offer access to more traditional processing parameters.

Another impressive feature is Gain Assistant, which helps establish appropriate input gain levels quickly and efficiently. This is particularly useful for bands that handle their own sound or venues that regularly work with different performers.

The CQ-20B also includes Feedback Assistant, designed to help identify and reduce problematic feedback frequencies. This makes it a valuable tool for live vocal microphones, stage monitors, and challenging performance environments.

Built-in effects provide additional flexibility for shaping vocals and instruments, including professional-quality reverbs, delays, and other processing options.

The mixer’s integrated Wi-Fi connectivity allows compatible devices to connect for remote mixing through Allen & Heath's CQ control applications. This gives sound engineers the freedom to move around a venue and make adjustments from the audience area rather than remaining behind a fixed mixing position.

For recording applications, the CQ-20B offers multitrack recording and playback capabilities, including USB audio interface functionality and recording to supported storage media. This makes it a great option for capturing live performances, rehearsals, worship services, podcasts, and studio sessions.

In a recording studio, the CQ-20B can serve as a versatile interface and monitoring mixer for tracking full bands, recording drum kits, capturing live sessions, managing headphone mixes, and integrating multiple microphones and instruments into a digital audio workstation.

Whether you're mixing a live band, managing audio for a church, recording rehearsals, or building a compact professional sound system, the Allen & Heath CQ-20B delivers exceptional versatility, intelligent mixing tools, and professional digital audio performance in a remarkably portable package.
