Not that I have seen (I have qu-5 as well). Also are you thinking in the context of being able to see a ‘label’ on the button on the MixPad app as other than assigning a value to a key on the mixer there would be no places to see a name other than the printed number on the chassis itself above each button.

Thanks

The MixPad app allows you to name soft keys on new Qu. The names do show upon the mixer’s screen.

Sorry. I meant to name the third-party Mixing Station app; not MixPad.
