Run SQ MixPad on PC or Mac

Multitask effortlessly on your PC or Mac as you try out SQ MixPad, a Music & Audio app by Allen & Heath on BlueStacks.

About the App

SQ MixPad lets you take the reins of your SQ console—your way. Whether you’re mixing from the stage, the balcony, or your favorite chair, this handy app puts powerful music and audio controls right in your hands. SQ MixPad is all about flexibility; you can handle everything from detailed mix tweaks to full-on show edits, all without being tied to one spot.

App Features

  • Mix Anywhere
    Move around the venue or work from a comfy spot—SQ MixPad connects to your console over a wired or wireless network, giving you full control from wherever you are.

  • Simultaneous Multi-Device Support
    Up to three devices can run SQ MixPad at once, all working alongside the main SQ surface. You can delegate tasks or tag-team mixing on the fly.

  • Offline Editing
    No console nearby? No problem. Edit show files, manage scenes, and adjust settings in ‘Offline’ mode—handy for planning ahead or making last-minute changes.

  • Levels & Routing
    Fine-tune everything: set channel levels, make routing adjustments, pan, assign channels, adjust pre/post settings, and mute wherever needed. FX sends and returns plus DCA and Mute Group controls are all right there.

  • Processing Power
    Tweak preamps, shape your sound with HPF, gate, EQ, and compression, or access DEEP models and FX parameters. There’s a ton of processing tools at your fingertips.

  • Flexible Patching
    Handle your patching matrix however you want—inputs, outputs, tie lines—and take advantage of ‘1-to-1’ options for quick, diagonal connections.

  • Show Management
    Move full shows between SQ MixPad and your SQ console, or store and share them via cloud or email (if your device allows it), all with just a few taps.

  • Custom Layers
    Personalize up to six custom layers and copy desks as you like, so all your go-to controls are easy to reach.

  • Helpful Tools
    Access signal generators, setup AMM, manage ganging, configure mixer roles, rename channels, and set up PAFL and soft keys. Metering and RTA views give you live feedback on your sound.

  • Seamless Compatibility
    Works directly with SQ User Permissions, lets you copy, paste, or reset settings, and supports MIDI strip setup. Global scene and channel filters help keep everything safe and organized.

If you’re looking to run SQ MixPad on a bigger screen, BlueStacks is there to make things even smoother without ever getting in your way.

Big screen. Bigger performance. Use BlueStacks on your PC or Mac to run your favorite apps.
