It would be a wonderful enhancement if Allen and Heath could incorporate a Pre/Post EQ option for the SQ Series Compressor. The current fixed position of the compressor at the Pre EQ stage limits my ability to utilise parallel compression effectively. Adding this feature would greatly expand its creative potential!

Regardless of your suggestion:  
It might help you to know that your compressor isn’t Pre-, but Post-EQ.  
This means you could already be able to use it in your preferred way.
