Compact yet capable digital consoles for mid-size live productions, delivering the same CL-series audio quality and Centralogic workflow in a more portable format.
The QL Series delivers the full CL-series audio engine and Centralogic workflow in a more compact console designed for mid-size live productions, theatres, corporate events and installed-sound applications. QL5 and QL1 share identical signal processing with the CL family, VCM channel strips, Dan Dugan automixer, Dante networking, at a smaller console footprint.
The QL5 offers 32 local analogue inputs and three Mini-YGDAI slots; the QL1 scales to 16 inputs and two expansion slots. Both models are a natural fit when paired with Rio stageboxes for a fully networked system. Free companion software: QL Editor (Windows/macOS, offline setup and online control) and QL StageMix (iPad, wireless stage-side mixing).
Identical VCM processing and dynamic range (112 dB typ.) to the flagship CL Series, making QL the right choice when CL-quality audio is required in a smaller console.
Dan Dugan automatic mixing is included as standard, enabling transparent multi-microphone gain sharing in panel, theatre and installed-sound environments.
Primary/Secondary Dante ports allow direct connection to Rio stageboxes and other Dante devices without additional conversion hardware.
QL5 and QL1 suit venues where a full CL5 or CL3 would exceed the available stage or FOH footprint, without sacrificing processing capability.
