Adjusting an EQ knob on the new Qu should select that band on the screen, so the parameters are displayed. Seems silly to have to go back to touching the screen when we have these lovely dedicated knobs.
On the older Qu, it was a setting you need to enable.

Processing Screen Follows Surface is still on new Qu. That’s not what I’m talking about. When the EQ window opens, one of the filters is selected with its numerical parameters displayed. If you turn a knob for a different filter, you can’t see the parameters you’re changing. It should select that filter.

Ah, ok. Now I understand.

The same function would be appreciated for the HPF knob as well!
But, if I could have at least something, it would be the EQ band selection to follow the knobs as mentioned above.

Absolutely. Never understood why A&H thinks the HPF isn’t part of EQ.
Because in older systems it was implemented in the preamp. And still, it is located after the input stage, before the gate.

But now we live in this century.

In those older systems, the HPF was a knob, visible at all times, just like the other EQ controls.
It would be nice to have all filter’s information, plus HPF’s , as in the old QU (and Sq…). I feel that Allen&heath has designed this eq to be operated from the screen but I don’t like it. I didn’t know I’d be missing this info so much.

Agreed, it would also be nice to have an option to have the touch and turn knob follow the last touched knob, to be able to fine tune your most recently adjusted parameter, since the touch&turn knob is a higher resolution encoder.

Agreed.
I thought I was missing something when some of the knobs didn’t work.
Oh, I have to click the touchscreen to kind of wake it up and then go BACK and move the same knob again, even though it is a dedicated knob and it will adjust the right thing.
In an operating system we call that a change of “focus”.
It needs to update the “focus” by itself and look at the dial we are actively turning vs leaving the focus on some other EQ parameter that we aren’t moving.
