Can I connect an iPad via Bluetooth to the cq12t without the use of any wi fi routers. This is a game changer question before I purchase. Many regards

Yes and you’ll be able to play music via BT.
No need of a router for that.

To try and avoid any potential misunderstanding with the two types of external device connection to the CQ -
The Bluetooth connection is for audio playback only.
The network connection (either the built-in WiFi or connection to the Ethernet port) is for remote control of the mixer only.

Thanks,
Keith.

Regardless of the number of I/O and FX engines, the CQ12T doesn’t forbid to have external control with your ipad.
You can hook it to a simple wifi router and get a solid wifi connexion too.

Ah so a cheap little wi fi router will work then

So Ethernet cable from 12T and scan from iPad ??

You can control any of the CQ range remotely using the CQ-MixPad app as follows:

CQ-20B - Via built-in WiFi OR Router/Access Point connected to the Ethernet port OR Direct connection to the Ethernet port.
CQ-18T - Via built-in WiFi OR Router/Access Point connected to the Ethernet port OR Direct connection to the Ethernet port.
CQ-12T - Via Router/Access Point connected to the Ethernet port OR Direct connection to the Ethernet port.

So referring to your original post, you would need the CQ-18T if you didn’t want to use an external router or access point for wireless control.

Cheers!
Keith.
