Qu-Drive Multitrack page – This screen
presents the controls for multitrack recording to and

Qu-Drive port.
The blue Stop button lights if the USB drive is
recognised by the mixer. The controls are disabled if

Multitrack Record – You can record to a USB
hard drive plugged into Qu-Drive:
18 Tracks = CH1-16 and a patchable stereo pair
Record format = 48kHz, 24-bit, WAV file
Data rate = 144 KB/sec per track (max 4GB total)
Qu allocates a folder name ‘QU-MTnnn’ for each
recording where ‘nnn’ increments from 001 to 999
starting at the highest number +1 it finds on the
drive. The tracks are named ‘TRKnn’ within the
folder where ‘nn’ is 01 to 18.

and multitrack recording.
