Q-SYS Capacity Scaling License
For Core Nano & Core 8 Flex
The Q-SYS Core Nano & Core 8 Flex Scaling License is focused on expanding the resources aimed at meeting spaces, BGM, and paging applications. First, it expands the maximum AEC processing capabilities and available Softphones. In addition, the number of supported NM Series NM-T1 microphones increases to a maximum of six*, adding greater flexibility and capacity for distance conferencing and sound reinforcement. It also increases the Media Streaming channel capacity (up to 24x24) and the maximum Q-SYS peripheral count (up to 48 Q-SYS peripherals.)
Features & Benefits
- Expanded System Capabilities – Q-SYS has the unique ability to let you easily add features and functionality at the software level, enabling your system to easily scale when you need it, and continue to evolve well into the future. Q-SYS Scaling licenses allow you to leverage the unique software-based nature of the Q-SYS Platform to tailor your Q-SYS Core to the needs of specific applications and use cases.
- Software-based Benefits – Whether choosing the right features before installation or scaling capabilities as business needs change, Q-SYS Scaling licenses enable users to add the right features when they need them at any time, with a simple license activation (rather than adding additional processing hardware).
- Scaling Potential - Q-SYS Cores are built on modern technology platforms that offer vast amounts of processing capacity to evolve over time. This license unlocks more all-purpose DSP processing power, expands the networked audio channel capacity to 128x128 (Q-LAN/AES67), and increases available system resources such as AEC channels, NM Series microphone capacity, softphones, and Media/WAN channel capacity.

* Q-SYS Cores feature dedicated AEC resources for NM Series microphones while also reserving AEC resources for third-party microphones (or additional NM Series microphones). Each Core has a recommended "Maximum NM-T1 Capacity" along with a total "AEC Channel" specification.
