Qu-Pad 4+

Overall a decently solid app, but the discrepancies between its PC counterpart are a little frustrating. Color Coding, RTA on every channel, Low Cut are non existent. There is also a discrepancy between the PC App monitor level and the Apps (could be user error) Also the EQ is very touchy. Besides these things the app gets the job done. Also add support for more than 2 devices active at a time please.

Name one app that comes even close to this in the world of digital mixing. I’m trained on YAMAHA, Midas/Behringer, AVID, Soundcraft, QSC +, and I guarantee Allen and Heath provides the easiest and most logically functional mixing system, especially this main engineering app. The layout makes sense, just like their boards, and seems to be designed by real live engineers. The custom strips allow a lot of flexibility and you can make your life easier by creating a functional layout per your needs. The app is actually more powerful than the standard capability of the Qu mixers. I never like to mix without it, and I actually prefer to have hands on the board AND iPad to make mixing the easiest and smoothest.

I’ve never had the issues that others complain about in some of these reviews. If WiFi is failing it has little to do with the mixer or app, and most likely the quality and setup of the router. Netgear is recommended but I’ve had success with several other brands.

I’ve used this app for years and love the workflow. It is miles ahead of other consoles that offer iPad control. The newest 2022 update finally made the app fit my iPad Pro screen without black bars on the side. Looks even better! BUT, I was re-tuning my monitors today and noticed when I went to the 31-band GEQ all of the frequencies are not labeled. Now when I hear a specific frequency like 2k or 1.6k I can’t just pull it out looking at the GEQ. Now I have to guess where my frequencies are. This is kind of a bad oversight on A&H if you ask me. The previous versions of this app had abbreviated frequencies listed below the faders on the 31-band GEQ. Now it is blank. Even the apps sample photos show the GEQ without frequencies listed. Hopefully A&H releases a revision of their new update. Other than that, it is the best iPad app for controlling Qu digital mixing systems. Aside from the new SQ app.
