At the Prolight+Sound trade show, Yamaha released the all-in-one QL Series of digital consoles—the “little brother” to the CL Series.
The QL series inherits the performance and functionality of the CL Series, and is intended for small to medium scale live sound, corporate events, installations, and more.
QL consoles are available in two models: the QL5 (with 64 mono+8 stereo mix channels, 32 analog inputs, and 16 analog outputs); and the QL1 (with 32 mono+8 stereo mix channels, 16 analog inputs, and 8 analog outputs).
Both consoles feature:
- A focus on high-quality sound reproduction that is faithful to the source
- Rupert Neve Portico 5033/5043 Virtual Circuit Modeling (VCM) plugins
- Built-in 16-channel Dan Dugan Automatic Mixer

- Built-in Dante I/O (32×32 on the QL1, 64×64 on the QL5)
- Gain compensation when sharing inputs with another controller
- 2-track recording to USB flash drives
