The Allen & Heath ME-1 Personal Monitor Mixeris designed to give individual musicians, performers, and presenters the freedom to control their own tailored monitor mixes for use on stage or in houses of worship, rehearsal rooms, studios, conferences, or live events.

This standalone digital personal mixer receives input from up to 40 sources via a single CAT5 cable (sold separately) from the main console (sold separately) and mixes these to a stereo and mono output to drive headphones, in-ear monitors, loudspeakers, or other monitoring devices over 3.5mm or 1/4" outputs. The mixer features a simple user interface with intuitive, clear visual feedback, and custom naming system.

This mixer is the cornerstone of the ME Personal Mixing System (sold separately) and is ready to use with the Allen & Heath iLive and GLD series Digital Mixers. It is complemented by the ME-U Hub (sold separately), which opens up the benefits of ME to users of other professional digital mixers via the Dante AVB-Ready Audio Networking Solution, EtherSound Audio Network Card, or MADI Audio Plug-In Card (all sold separately).

It also has an Aviom compatibility mode for use with Aviom Pro16 systems. You can eliminate the need to use up main console buses by grouping the 40 channels within the mixer to simplify control for each musician. You can assign as few or as many of the 16 keys as needed to control the mix.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is this a good digital mixer to start with if you aren't familiar with a digital mixer? Do you have to have a computer or I pad to use it?

A: Our church uses the Qu-16 and we are looking at upgrading to the Qu-24. I have never used a digital mixer until I started helping out with the sound hardware this year and I found that I could watch all the YouTube video about this product line and actually use the mixer. Are their functions that I don’t know how to use, yes! But I’ve learned enough to control the sound in our church while using 6 fixed mics, and 16 channel snake. We can’t use all the snake inputs with only 16 channels, but the QU-24 will take care of that. I have unique EQ, gates and compression on the channels as needed and scenes set up for 6 different service types. So yes moving from analog to digital has worked well for me. And the iPad application is fantastic. We don’t have anyone in the sound room, just the iPad out with the choir director!

Q: 8. How can we use 4 speakers from the L&R main outs for our school auditorium? We currently use two powered PA speakers with the mixer, but we need two more PA speakers.

A: Your two existing speakers will most likely have a line output or "thru" connection on the back that will allow you to connect the output from one speaker to the input on an additional powered speaker. So you can easily expand your existing setup by daisy-chaining more speakers on the left and right sides. As long as you are connecting powered speakers, you can daisy chain as many speakers as desired.

Q: 9. Wgat us the latency while using as an audio interface?

A: The system latency for the Allen & Heath CQ-20B Digital Mixer is rated at less than 0.7 milliseconds from the local mic input to the main XLR output, with all processing in or out.
