Hallo, I am new here in the Forum and also a very new QU5 user, since 2 weeks 
. I familiarized up to now a bit with the QU5 and now want to record the band. I would like to record multitrack to my iPad (Cubasis) via USB-C and in parallel I would like to record the main bus on USB A (stereo). I get ambiguous information if this is possible or not. Does anyone here has experience with this? Thank you!
Pages 95-100 in the manual should hopefully explain it all. You didn’t mention checking this already, so suggesting it just in case.

Thank you for your reply, shadowSound. I actually read through but I don‘t understand it completly. I managed to record to USB-A by routing the Main Bus L to USB 1 Output and Main Bus R to USB 2 Output. Then everthing from the Main Bus is recorded to USB-A. The USB Streaming Mode was Set to Stereo. Now, when I want to record in parallel multitrack via USB-C to an iPad, I think I should set the Streaming Mode to Multitrack and route my Channels (32) accordingly to the USB output sockets. And here I dont understand it anymore…it seems to me that the parallel recording is not possible, but I heard and read in e.g. ChatGPT that parallel recording is possible. This is why I thought, maybe I can ansk in the forum. And I think it would be great asset, having a raw multitrack record and in parallel a stereo record of the show. Thanks!
I think the main confusion here is:
- You do record the stereo output signals to your USB-A (onto the stick).
- You can record the signal flow from the USB-C port (onto your tablet). The # of channels you want (up to 32).
You cannot record stereo to your USB stick and record multichannel to the SD card at the same time.

Thanks a lot for your answer. Ok, I have not managed yet to get the right settings, but I am happy to hear that in principle is possible. I will then manage it. Yes, is clear that USB-A and SD card in parallel is not possible, but USB-A and USB-C should be possible. Just need to find the right settings. Thank you!
