It’s been quite a while and Apple and Allen Heath have not solved the DAW control problem between them. This is unfortunate. The Qu price range is great and it’s potential is awesome. I fear I will have to switch to pro tools to have the nirvana that almost was with Logic Pro. The Qu appeared to be a god send to small studio owners looking for a 1 to 1 mixer control in their Logic Pro studio, but instead has become more like purgatory.
I don’t look forward to the learning curve of Pro Tools, but convenience rules in my studio. I wonder if a class action suit would help light a fire under the two companies to solve this problem.
It’s a disaster. DAW Control does not function with High Sierra. And even before I upgraded, I’d set up the control surface, add the Monitor object in the Environment, yet every time I closed a project and reopened, I had to go through the whole process again.
Since the high sierra upgrade the daw control does not work and the copy of the OS i had was accidentally updated win a way that prevents it from working with the Qu 32 as a DAW controller which is why i purchase it. Thinking about posting a youtube about it.

Qu DAW control has been tested and working with MacOS High Sierra and Logic Pro X 10.4, if you are having issues, please start a ticket at support.allen-heath.com and we will be happy to help.
When Logic has been opened after a computer reboot there is no need to start the setup from scratch.
View the Control surface setup window.
Each control surface will display a ! symbol - ‘DAW1’
Select the first control surface - ‘DAW2’
Reassign the Output and Input port to DAW Control MIDI 1 - ‘DAW3’
Repeat this for each control surface (Surface 2 to MIDI 2, Surface 3 to MIDI3, etc) and the issue is resolved.
