Allen & Heath CQ-12T Ultra-Compact 12 Input Digital Mixer

The Allen & Heath CQ-12T Ultra-Compact 12 Input Digital Mixer is the smallest mixer in the CQ range and is ideal for home recording and streaming, band rehearsals, small gigs, and speech applications.
CQ-12T gives you all the tactile control you need to get around the interface quickly. The 7" touchscreen and rotary control make it simple to set up and get mixing, and 3 Custom SoftKeys let you access commonly used functions at the push of a button. Connect a router or access point and the free CQ MixPad app also gives you full control of your mix from anywhere in the venue.
CQ-12T gives you all the connectivity you need to get going with 10 mic/line inputs split across 5 XLRs and 5 XLR/TRS combi sockets, plus a stereo input via a pair of 1/4" jacks. When it comes to outputs, there's a pair of main mix outputs on XLR plus 6 TRS jack outputs for monitor mixes – enough for the whole band!
