stands for “Meters and Cue system”. It is a multipurpose device designed to
give the recording engineer quick and precise mix level awareness as well as an easy to
use, dual stereo cue system complete with headphone amplifiers and talkback
communications.
The Metering section has a pair of Sifam Clarity Focus VU movements for the
analog inputs. A Prime LED digital meter with custom ballistics is used for the AES
input. These accurately calibrated meters allow for optimum level adjustment for
recording, mixing, mastering, and system calibration. The Cue section consists of a
simple mixer and a talkback system that feeds two built-in power amplifiers. The MQ
hooks up in minutes to become an indispensable component of your recording studio.
