Allen and Heath SQ6 Analog vs Digital

A discussion of the differences between analog and digital mixers.

[@davidpatrick7553]

Great analogy with the Typewriter and Computer. I've never heard it explained that way, but makes total sense and a great way to help others comprehend the analog and digital difference. Excellent!!

[@AndrewBellous]

Glad to hear you found it helpful.

[@adamwarren8893]

I learned live sound on analog desks and always found Digital desks like this to be over complicated and very alien, but you explained it in a way that made sense and now I feel like I have a much better understanding on how these digital desks work! Thank you!

[@AndrewBellous]

Yes, once you get your head wrapped around the differences, they offer some real advantages :)

[@taftmarsh5331]

Very good job with the analogy to help someone with knowledge of analog understand the possibilities of digital.

[@AndrewBellous]

Glad it was helpful :)

[@mark12.31]

Excellent way of describing the differences between analog and digital for those folks who don't yet understand digital consoles. Well done.

[@AndrewBellous]

Thanks.

[@iamie153]

Thank you Andrew this is easily the best, most helpful video I have viewed on the SQ6 Analog desk

[@AndrewBellous]

Glad it helped :)

[@henrybriggs1964]

Thank you very much for your tutorial it really help our church. Keep it up because we are totally new to this new digital mixer from analog that we just purchased. Thanks

[@AndrewBellous]

Glad to hear :)

[@ceo9]

How has the translation to digital been in the last few months? Are you glad u did it?

[@AndrewBellous]

@@ceo9 absolutely. In terms of usability and features, an old analog board just can't compete with even an entry level digital board. The leap forward in effects and features is a huge value.

Andrew Bellous, I have a question. My church plans to get the sq5. I am having a hard time understanding how to get 48ch on the sq5. We currently have the qu16 it’s a one to one patch.

[@AndrewBellous]

Yes, the SQ5 can do 48 channels, but to input all those channels, you would need a breakout box which would connect via network cable. The box would go onstage, and you could plug in directly. Something like an AR-84 or an AB-168. You would then patch those additional inputs to layers, and but pushing a button, your faders would switch to the alternate channels. So, you might control 1-16 on one layer and 17-32. But layers can be customized for a mix of channels, groups and other controls to be conveniently placed together.

[@huizylove]

HELP. Im not able to control the main lr máster. Why?

[@AndrewBellous]

I'm sorry, but it's hard to answer that question without more information.

[@huizylove]

@@AndrewBellous it's been solved thx u

[@soundped]

How has the board held up over the years. Do you ever record multi-track audio onto the USB drive? Thanks in advance.

[@AndrewBellous]

I had access to this board briefly while I was working for a company that had it as a demo unit. Haven't heard that they had any issues with it, and A&H is widely known for the solid products they produce with great longevity.

[@danilocuarteros1754]

can you make a comparison in sq7 of A&H and Presonus SL64

[@AndrewBellous]

Sorry, I'm no longer employed by the company that allowed me access to that equipment. I've returned to pastoral ministry after a time in Audio/Video installation.

[@DB-nt1gl]

Good job.

Можно на русском языке пожалуйста, взяли такой пульт очень нужно разобраться, пришлите мануал или видео если не сложно. Спасибо заранее огромное!!! Почта: [e-mail]

[@AndrewBellous]

Извините, но я не говорю по-русски.

[@VicDemise]

Oh my god you take forever to say NOTHING!

[@AndrewBellous]

Hi Vic. I appreciate your frustration. I work helping churches with sound systems, so I try to take it really slow and assume the people I'm talking to need things repeated. I understand how that can be a problem for those who are already up to speed.

[@VicDemise]

Actually, I'm sorry for the overtly rude comment. I was in a mood, and I commend the civility of your response. My bad. (I prolly need a sammich!)

[@THEKECHEXPERIENCE]

indeed lol

[@AndrewBellous]

Hi, Vic. I hope you enjoyed the sammich :)

[@beedslolkuntus2070]

Andrew Bellous hello are you here ?
