Qu-SB matrix outputs.

Qu Qu General Discussions

So after reading the manual it seems there is no way to get matrix outputs without using an AR box. I have the purple series! The Purple Club. :expressionless:
I am looking at buying an Qu-SB so can someone advise me if I use an AR84 the small 8-in 4-out, can I assign the matrix to those outputs?

OR… with out physically purchasing the unit, are the matrix’s assignable to say outputs 7/8 & 9/10? This would be good!?

I just want to be able to get a simple duplicate copy of FOH for remote delayed extension speakers with out having to use the existing paralleling outputs of the mix ports 7/8 9/10.

Dave…

I always go to the Demo mode on my iPad to check such things.

It seems you can route Mixes to a Matrix but not the other way around. I have a pile of analog gear still on the shelves and would just use a delay unit and a Rane line mixer/splitter in a pinch.

Looks like the expander box is in your future.

Yes Thanks
I did exactly that!
Demo mode…

Apologies to all.
I see there is a TRS out for the matrix.
I guess that’s what happens when you physically dont have the hardware directly in front of you.
There’s a phones out but no ALT out hmm?

Do you think the Matrix TRS will power sets of powered-speakers 60 metres? Balanced of course…
I always have this internal issue about sending audio from TRS rather than XLR.
Cheers anyhow.

Hi Dave,

I have both the QU-16 and QU-SB, the latter being the one I now use all the time for both the band I play in and for when I am doing PA hire with a friend of mine, he sits at FOH on his X32 and I am on monitor duties using the QU-SB. Great piece of kit.

I can confirm it does have Matrix outputs, like you say, these are TRS outputs and sadly not XLR. There is no Alt out which is a shame as I found that handy to use on my QU-16. I don’t think you will have any problems sending a signal to a pair of powered speakers regardless of the distance being 60m.

Cheers

The trsvoits are electrically equivalent to the xlr outs I think.

Matrix can be routed to anyboutput on a dSnake box

Thanks Bob yes.
I don’t want to use a dSnake box
I’m wanting a stand alone physically small mixer for my foot pedals [in the band I play in] actually built into the floor case.
I’m sure the TRS will be fine.
