Q-Sys Core Nano

The Q-SYS Core Nano is a compact and cost-effective DSP processor for network-based AV systems, designed for smaller installations where all signal processing takes place over the network. With full Q-SYS functionality in a small form factor, it is ideal for modern, IP-based solutions that do not require local analog I/O.

Purely network-based AV processing
Core Nano is designed for systems built entirely on network-connected devices. With 64 × 64 network channels (Q-LAN / AES67), it serves as a central processor in installations where all audio distribution occurs via IP.

Compact solution without compromise
By eliminating analog I/O, Core Nano offers an extremely space-efficient solution in a half-rack format. Despite this, you get access to the same powerful features found in larger Q-SYS processors—including DSP, video routing, and the control engine.

Optimized for meeting rooms and UC
Core Nano features built-in AEC (8 channels), USB AV bridging, and support for VoIP, making it perfect for video conferencing and hybrid meeting environments. It integrates seamlessly with UC platforms and network-based microphones.

Flexible and scalable platform
With support for Dante, Q-SYS peripherals, and software-based expansion, the system can be easily scaled up as needed—without replacing the processor.

Easy installation and operation
The compact design, internal power supply, and network-based architecture make installation quick and easy, especially in smaller rooms or distributed systems.
