I run my rig L&R&Sub, I run the sub in an aux out, Which works great, But when I pull the channel fader down the sub is still coming out of the aux, is there a way that I can do this so when I pull the fader down the sub also comes down? Thanks for any help

Alt Out can be patched to various sources, sounds like yours is patched to LR Pre-Fade. Just change it to LR Post-Fade and everything should be fine.

Thanks Andreas.

…or to “L+R post-fade” to get a mono mix for your sub(s).

it sounds like the aux that is being used to feed your subwoofers is PRE fader.
Your input channels for the sub aux should all be set to POST, to make sure this is correct,
make sure you are viewing the Aux mix for subs by selecting the blue “MIX” button on the right-hand side of the console,
then on the left side of the console, push and hold the Pre Fade button, and tap each green SEL button so that the
green light is not lit on any of the channels.

Sounded like he was using the Aux output, not a separate mix.

Easy for terminology to get confused though!

Since the Qu does not have a named “Aux” output, we only can guess if it should read “Mix” or “Alt”. If a “Mix” is used, I would suggest to better use the “Alt” (or “Mtx”) to simplify things. Setting up a parallel “Mix” is much more complicate since all levels need to be adjusted in two places.

Bah - head failure. Comes of not having the mixer near me most of the time.

for me, it still seems to be a PREFADER mix

switch the sends (if not then switch the ALT-Out) to POST

at least we miss the information about the desk… QU-16 is different than the rest… the rest hast matrices
