PreSonus is shipping QMix-UC, a new version of the company's free monitor-mix control app for PreSonus StudioLive mixers. QMix-UC allows up to 14 musicians to simultaneously control monitor (aux) mixes wirelessly from a mobile device.
Redesigned to support the new StudioLive Series III mixers, QMix-UC adds support for Studio 192-series interfaces and now runs on Android devices, in addition to iPhone and iPod touch. For StudioLive AI-series mixer customers, QMix-UC replaces QMix-AI automatically when the app is updated.
Building on the features and functionality of its predecessors, QMix-UC adds the ability to create four channel groups, allowing advanced users to control large mixes. For a more streamlined workflow, QMix-UC retains the Wheel of Me, which allows users to select multiple "Me" channels and turn them all up in the monitor at the same time, while controlling the relative balance between the user and the rest of the band. Aux mix send levels and pan positions (for linked auxes), in addition to the new groups, are available in Landscape view.
StudioLive mixers allow users to set permissions that determine which features can be controlled from each wireless device on the network, including those running QMix-UC. Also, a user can completely block any wireless device from accessing the network entirely, even if someone has the router password.
QMix-UC directly controls StudioLive Series III and AI-series mixers. Studio 192-series interfaces require a computer running UC Surface to use QMix-UC.
PreSonus QMix-UC is available free from the Apple App Store, Amazon App Store, or Google Play Store.
