10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY SCHEME

The product price includes 5 years' warranty and 30 day money back guarantee.

However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.

The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:

  • Warranty is extended to 10 years from the date of delivery.
  • Our Money Back guarantee is extended from 30 days to 180 days (terms apply after 30 days)
  • Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty
  • Claim 50% cash back on the cost of the policy after 10 years if it has not been used!
  • Warranty is transferable if the item is re-sold
  • Loan or replacement equipment will be provided if the product isn't repaired within 30 days
  • If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered
  • The policy can be cancelled within 30 days, and at any time after that for a pro-rata discount

Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.

For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.

This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

With six onboard FX engines and support for advanced processing add-ons, the QU-5 is a powerful all-in-one solution.



Multitrack recording and playback are supported directly via SD card and USB-C without needing a computer. Capture up to 32 channels, or play back tracks for soundchecks or live shows.

Professional control and intuitive workflow

The Allen & Heath QU-5 is built for engineers and venues who want powerful control without the bulk. A 7” touchscreen gives fast access to metering, EQ and routing, while 17 motorised faders and four channel layers allow flexible mix control. Assignable SoftKeys let you create shortcuts to frequently used functions, ideal for live shows where fast reactions are key.

With a compact footprint and optional rack mounting, it suits everything from conference rooms to mobile rigs. Scene memory and user presets mean multiple engineers can use it without needing to reconfigure the desk each time. It’s a flexible platform for anyone needing high-performance mixing with a smaller channel count.

Built-in tools to speed up setup

The QU-5 features Allen & Heath’s 96kHz XCVI FPGA processing engine for clear, low-latency audio across all 36 input channels. With 12 mixes and 4 matrices, you can send signals to monitors, recorders or different zones easily. Built-in tools like Gain Assistant and Feedback Assistant help optimise your setup quickly and reduce on-stage issues before they start.

The built-in 32-channel Automatic Mic Mixer (AMM) makes it ideal for speech applications such as corporate events or worship services. Combined with six internal FX engines, plus support for DEEP and RackExtra add-ons, the QU-5 gives you powerful creative and corrective tools straight out of the box.

Flexible expansion and I/O options

The SLink port on the QU-5 lets you expand your system using both 48kHz and 96kHz I/O hardware. It supports dSnake and DX or GX stageboxes, giving you flexibility to scale up your system for different shows or installations. You can place stageboxes up to 100m away over Cat5e or Cat6 cabling, simplifying wiring and setup.

The QU-5 is also compatible with MixPad and 4You apps on iOS, Android, Mac and Windows. These apps give remote access to channel control, EQ and monitor mixes, useful for walking the room during soundchecks or adjusting mixes on stage. It’s a scalable solution for venues or engineers who need remote access and easy I/O expansion.

Reliable multitrack recording and playback

Multitrack recording is built into the QU-5, with support for both SD card and USB-C. Record up to 32 channels at 48kHz directly to USB-C storage, or 16 channels at 96kHz to SD without needing a computer or audio interface. It’s perfect for capturing shows, rehearsals, or backup recordings in live environments.

Files are saved as standard WAV for easy import into any DAW. Playback is just as easy, trigger backing tracks or run virtual soundchecks from media storage. The USB-A port also supports stereo record/playback and file transfer, giving you multiple ways to manage audio in the field or studio.
