Hi guys, new CQ20B owner here and loving this little unit already. I have very little mixer knowledge so please forgive me if this is a basic question. I want to play drums that are mic’d on Inputs 1 to 7 along to a click coming into the CQ through the inputs STIN. I want to hear the drums and the click in my IEMs and record the drums without the click to a stereo file using the built in USB stereo record.
Please could somebody explain how to route the STIN channel that carries the click track so that the above is possible.
You would want to use a PRE FADE aux send for your IEMs. Doing that you can
you can bring up the click in the IEM aux mix while leaving it turned down in the
main stereo mix.
Not an expert but here’s my best guess. I note your post was a few month ago now, but this might help others get started also.
Pick which of the mixer outputs you want to connect your Monitors to.
(Note you can set a pair of outputs to be linked if necessary)
Then go to CONFIG, selected you first input, go to processing tab and you will see the output faders. Select your level you want for your monitors channel, then repeat the process for each input until you have all the input feeds directed. If you want the click track on its own feed just pick a different out to feed it to from that used for the rest of the kit.
Here another best guess. Might even be possible if you use a pair of outputs for the monitors to pan the all drum inputs to the right and click to the left so if your monitors have pan control just swap left to right to hear the drums and click separately.
After setting up, save as a Scene via the HOME / SCENE TABS so you can recall the setup anytime. Also remember If you want to backup the Scene to USB you have to save as a SHOW (HOME / DATA Tabs) (A SHOW saves all the mixer settings held in its NVRAM will include all SCENES.
