Allen & Heath QU-5D Digital Mixer with Dante
The Allen & Heath QU-5D is a powerful digital mixing console designed for professional live sound, fixed installations, and networked audio environments. Based on the same 96kHz XCVI core as the QU-5, the QU-5D adds an integrated Dante interface for high-performance audio networking and flexible Dante routing, making it ideal for modern production workflows.
Equipped with 38 inputs, motorised faders, and intuitive touchscreen control, the QU-5D delivers outstanding performance and mix precision. Its built-in effects, advanced processing tools, and remote control capability ensure seamless operation across live, broadcast, and installed audio applications.
Compared to the standard QU-5, the QU-5D includes native Dante connectivity, enabling direct integration with Dante-enabled stage boxes, audio networks, and distributed audio systems without additional interface hardware. This makes the QU-5D especially well suited to larger, networked sound systems where audio distribution and routing flexibility are essential.
