We can perform some really really complex tasks like catching an object or avoiding obstacles without qualia. It seems that other complex tasks don't require qualia either.
How do you know that it's "without qualia"? A lot of things happen in the brain below the level of conscious awareness, but I think it's extremely likely that there is multi-channel sensory data being processed constantly. When I walk into a dark room, open a drawer and take out a specific object, I'm calling upon multiple streams of information - some of which have been rendered automatic by repetition and familiarity.
