Q-SYS is a cloud-manageable, software-driven audio, video, and control (AV&C) platform created by Q-SYS.Q-SYS combines everything into a single, unified software-based operating system (the Q-SYS OS) running on standard IT network processors.
It manages audio signal processing (DSP), video distribution, and control under one centralized "Core" processor rather than separate systems. Q-SYS is running on standard IT infrastructure like standard networking protocols, Linux, and Intel processing, making it scalable for corporate spaces, higher education, government facilities, and large entertainment venues. Q-SYS is an open Ecosystem & Developer platform and programmers can use conventional tools like Lua scripting, HTML5, CSS, and open APIs to integrate third-party hardware and software from major industry partners (like Microsoft, Zoom, Google, and Dell). The platform includes remote monitoring and management capabilities via Q-SYS Reflect so operators can monitor and control multiple rooms globally a single dashboard.
