Installing a Qcon Pro XS Expander Episode 2 – Connection and settings

After 18 months I have finally got hold of a Qcon Pro XS 8 channel expander for my studio. In Episode 2 I take you through two ways to physically connect the expander to your system via USB. I also look at the settings within your DAW and set up as a second Mackie Controller (in an entirely new installation of Cubase) plus how this works in two different configurations to suit your setup. If you enjoy this or my other videos please consider putting a pound or two in the tip jar at my BUY ME A COFFEE page.

Living With the Qcon Pro X – Installing a Qcon Pro XS Expander Ep1 – Making space    • Installing a Qcon Pro expander Ep 1 -...  

I bought the Qcon Pro X when I was building my home studio (Moonhare Studio) in 2017 and I am currently using it to control Cubase Pro 10 on a 32g RAM Dell windows PC. Despite having a superb feature set and tough build quality, it suffers from a User Manual that is very light on useful guidance, some patchy support from Icon and a few quirks which I can live with. In fact it is now such an integral part of my workflow I’d be lost without it.
