Powered by Allen & Heath’s revolutionary XCVI 96kHz FPGA engine, SQ-5 is built for professionals in the most demanding live sound applications. Delivering class-leading high resolution audio with an ultra-low audio fidelity. Allen, that the reader may be able to judge in what manner her actions will hereafter tend to promote the general distress of the work, and how she will, probably, contribute to reduce poor Catherine to all the desperate wretchedness of which a last volume is capable - whether by her imprudence, vulgarity, or jealousy - whether by intercepting her letters, ruining her character, or turning her out of doors. The ASIO/Core Audio drivers and control panel for the Allen & Heath M-Waves are installed using the Waves Central application, which also installs the SoundGrid driver and the SoundGrid Studio Application required for DAW recording and playback. Allen is an established NHL goaltender but hockey isn't the only sport where he has had success. He was a two-time junior champion at the Kingswood Park Golf Course in his hometown of Fredericton.
We recommend making sure you have the latest drivers installed for your audio device and operating system. This will ensure the best performance for your Cakewalk software.

Hi Shane,
If you just want to send audio to Ableton Live and then feed that back onto the desk, you don’t need the DAW Control Driver for this. The DAW Control Driver is used for MIDI control only and isn’t used for any audio.
If you are using the USB B connection on the back of the mixer and have the USB driver installed, go to Ableton Live preferences > Audio and select the Qu ASIO driver as your audio device. You can then configure your inputs and outputs to enable the I/O you need.
Once this is done, you can source a track from a Qu input by select Ext in as your Audio From setting and selecting the channel you want to source from (inputs 1 to 5 for example). Then for your Audio To setting you can use Ext Out and select the channel you want to send the track to (channels 6 to 10 for example).
If you do want to set up DAW control with Ableton so control the track levels, mutes, etc, you’ll need to follow the steps here: https://www.allen-heath.com/media/DAW-Control-Help-V1.7.pdf#page=3&zoom=auto,-274,177
If you have any trouble getting the above to work, please go to support.allen-heath.com to start a ticket.
Thanks!
AlexHi Shane,
I recommend going to support.allen-heath.com to start a support ticket. One of the team can then look at your setup in more detail.

AlexGood afternoon friend, I have acquired a QU 16, I have previously installed the DAW Control, then I have connected it through the usb port that is located on the back of the QU 16 to a Mac Book, it has perfectly recognized the inputs and outputs in Ableton Live 10, I open the DAW Control and configuring it respectively, Mixer: qu series, Midi channel: 2, protocol: HUI, option: midi ports and input and uotput ports to QU 16.
Then I follow the steps you have indicated in this post, I go to Ableton / preferences / audio / audio device / type of controller … and that’s where the option to select QU Asio as controller does not appear, it only appears CoreAudio.
I need to use the QU 16 to integrate it with Ableton to use some channels via USB B Streaming and other instruments in other physical inputs that I want to go through Ableton to process and send them back to their respective channels so that they can be controlled from the QU 16.
Try to map from Ableton as a control surface, and when mapping the mutes it is inverted (i.e. active mute in the QU 16 and in Ableton it is deactivated and vice versa)
I would like to know where I am failing, I appreciate your help.Hi!
The DAW Control Driver is used only for MIDI control between the DAW and the mixer, so this isn’t needed for audio streaming.
On Mac, the Qu is core audio compliant, which means no ASIO/WDM driver is needed. If you select the Core Audio device, does it work as required?
Thanks
AlexI read your article attentively. So if I understand well you can use Ableton live with the QU16 under windows with a number of tracks up to 22. Is that correct?
I ‘m namely considering a purchase of he QU16 but I have to be sure about what I can do with it.16 mono and 3 stereo tracks are available on the mixing desk from the computer
and the desk sends 24 channelsyou can take part on a webinar Keith will hold
an overview is available here@SteffenR
And why is it not adequately documented so we can read it quickly and easier
and dont have to waste time with videos
