Built on a powerful 96kHz platform with smart processing capabilities, this compact powerhouse delivers studio-quality audio without the complexity that usually comes with it.

    Simplified Mixing, Maximum Creativity

    Whether you're running sound for a packed venue or tracking in your home studio, the CQ-20B eliminates the guesswork with intelligent features like Preamp Gain Assistant and Feedback Assistant. These smart tools get you from setup to great sound faster than ever, while the intuitive app-driven interface means you can mix from anywhere in the room — or even from the audience.

    • Smart Processing That Actually Works: Four built-in Smart-FX engines deliver reverbs, delays, and modulators that are instrument-aware and signal-conscious. No more generic effects that muddy your mix.
    • Wireless Freedom: Built-in dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4GHz/5GHz) with auto channel selection keeps your connection rock-solid, while Bluetooth input lets you play backing tracks without cables.
    • Professional I/O in a Compact Package: 16 mic/line inputs (eight with combo jacks) plus two stereo line inputs give you plenty of channels, while the 24x24 USB interface turns this into a full-featured audio interface.

    Smart Mixing for Real-World Situations

    The CQ-20B's stage box format means it sits quietly in your rack while you control everything from the free CQ MixPad app. The Quick Inputs mode gets you mixing fast with instrument-based presets, while Complete mode gives you full control when you need to dig deeper.

    • Preamp Gain Assistant: Automatically sets optimal gain levels for each input, eliminating feedback and distortion before they happen.
    • Intelligent Recording Options: Multitrack recording via USB-B or SD card means you can capture every channel individually, while USB-A handles stereo mixdowns for quick sharing.
    • Feedback Assistant: Actively monitors your mix and eliminates problematic frequencies before they cause squealing chaos.
