Don't do this on the X32 | One Production-Killing FLAW

I recently stopped my production in the middle of a live event due to this ONE FLAW on the X32. I am a huge proponent of recording multitracks from rehearsals or live events to have for later review and practice. As you watch this video, keep in mind that even professionals make mistakes. Learn from my errors and get better along the way.

Thank you for all of your X32 video's!! I made it through my first 4 hour live show last night running sound for my husbands Judas Priest cover band . Prior to watching your videos I had zero knowledge of sound engineering or music knowledge beyond listening. With only 4 practices and your video's before the first show, I didn't do to bad. =) I only tackled the basics so far but it was just enough to eek my way through. Thank you so much!!

[@AllamHouse]

That’s awesome. Congrats on the first gig. I’m happy the videos have been helpful and are serving you well.

Go to 7:20 for the actual problem and explanation!

[@carlharding5311]

Thank you!!!

[@GardohliVarnak]

Well, yes, but there's one more I've experienced, and this may or may not have been addressed with firmware updates. If you ever record on USB stick in the front of the console, beware: If the stick gets full, the console locks up and requires a restart to free it up again. Not removing the stick, not trying to stop recording. The console simply becomes unresponsive, You're welcome.

Do you have any tips for Dessing live not in post production... We are using the X32 and there is a persistent ssing problem with the pastors belt & headset mic... I fixed all the P poping and alot of the ssing by making him wear the mic properly, but there is still a stubborn ssing in the sound and it needs fixed live not in post production... Any tips would help?

I run the deesser on my pastor and handheld mics, but you can use it on vocal mics as well. This video discusses how I am using it currently, but you can adjust accordingly for your needs. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2bbqn2OltGcg8k

[@ailo14]

Do you do paid consultations? I just purchased the Luke Hendrikson Pro Tools template (Bethel) and I now want to use the DAW for my live stream. I knownyou have a video for routing from DAW to x32 board. I am nervous I am gonna break something if I do it myself. I also tries taking a normal audio cable from DAW to ATEM MINI PRO but it doesn't seem to work because you cannot have two different playback in protools at the same time (ASIO and normal laptop speakers)

[@docphillips5153]

Good info thanks we have 2 of the Midas 32s. Had that happen on another brand a few years ago same scenario. I was not sound engineer, but video with out sound. In commercial broadcast, see how fast the EIC (me) can get to the production control room from transmission. Thanks for the info.

[@AllamHouse]

The Midas has a different USB card that has an onboard SD card reader. This triggers an extra feature for auto-switching of inputs when you use the record tool. This issue makes sense on that setup as it is an extra feature, but mine doesn’t have it which made the situation really odd.

[@plkprint]

That must have been an awful awkward moment….wow…. I have the compact version and recently purchased the s16 .. I was excited to connect it and start using it. I connected 2 overhead mics and 2 inputs for my electronic drums and. Set the gains in the middle. I got sound from the x32 console from the monitors but can’t seem to get sound from the headphone amp I connected to the S16 xlr out .. another thing is I tried the headphone input on the S16 and could not get sound from that as well. Is there a solution for this that you might know?

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah, it was an odd moment, but we got through it and learned. Congrats on the S16, this is a great tool to add into your system. It will take a few changes in the routing screen of the console to get everything working properly. Assuming you have the S16 connected across AES50a you will want to go into Routing > AES50a and set your desired outputs. Keeping in mind you have 8 outputs on the S16 you will want to decide which 8 you are sending to that device. You can either send a block of 8 outputs or use the custom User Outs to setup a unique solution. If you want to send BUS 1 and 2 as monitors you can just select the Out 1-8 to go across AES50a 1-8 and then they will match up 1 to 1 on the device meaning MixBUS 1 will come out XLR out 1 on the S16. However if you are using outputs 1-8 on the X32 Compact already and you are just adding 8 more outputs with the S16 you will want to set AES50a 1-8 to be sourced by Out 9-16. I hope this helps. I might try and make a video about this nw that I have a compact in my studio.

[@fv3video]

Good to know before I start multi-tracking. I was recording to USB once and did not stop the recording before I switched to another scene and lost the whole recording. Lesson learned on 2 track level. Always learn something from your videos. Thank you.

[@aa.ivanov]

Haven't experienced this exact issue yet, mainly because the church where I do sound only recently upgraded to M32R. However a couple weeks back I had a scary moment when the live stream went silent right after the worship. It took me a while to inspect all the various points on the signal path from source to destination only to find that OBS has silently switched it's input from the M32 USB input to the computer's built in sound card. I still have no idea why. Listening back to the recording I hear the sound stutter right before failing, so ... I don't know... driver issue maybe :-/

[@AllamHouse]

Oh my, that would be a difficult one to figure out in the moment. We use OBS as well, but haven’t run into that issue. I’m gonna keep it in my mind for troubleshooting for sure.

[@MasterIvo]

Can I use a external midi clock, to tempo sync a delay in my x32 producer? No! I can only use tap to sync

[@AllamHouse]

I will say that I never have tried to do this and I almost never work with MIDI. I have found this guy "Artisan Sound" to be one that explores this type of setup a bit more. He mostly deals with musicals where they do a lot of switching so he might have some better help for you. This video of his might get you started. kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2K8npt-rtZmqdU

[@Illegal-Swede]

I recently had a problem with a Midas M32 where some channels were getting input channel fine, but I couldn't get them to go anywhere. I'd solo them up on the headphones and they sounded great, but they couldn't be assigned, even directly to the L/R Main mix. I rescued a couple channels by starting from scratch on couple unused and reassigning the input to those. Anyone seen that before?

[@AllamHouse]

I have heard of something similar, but never experienced it myself. I always wonder if the old “reboot” would cure this, but you can’t do that when you are in the middle of an event.

[@Illegal-Swede]

@@AllamHouse Thanks for the reply. I did restart the console but it didn't fix it. Gonna do some experimenting on that preset to try and figure it out.

[@destakadoskings1548]

I’m using my x32 to record into studio one. But i don’t know why is recording everything flat. No reverbs or eq. Does anyone knows what’s foing on here? Thanks in advance

[@AllamHouse]

The USB output (by default) taps right after the gain and sends into your DAW. It will not grab any of the channel strip so that you can do a virtual soundcheck and not muddy the waters by possibly double-EQing or something like that. Depending on how many channels you're recording multitrack there is a way to use the P16 trick to get the channel strip activated for multitracking, but you are limited to 16 channels (video below). If you want to record the onboard reverbs or delays you need to do some thinking about your configuration and what exactly you are needing to record. All of this is assuming you are just multitracking and not trying to record a final mix from the board into the DAW. P16 Trick Video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHuvi6qaZa-Fn5o

[@Dustyfstrfrz]

How can I record 32 channels and still use the usb to play Spotify and send a live feed to Facebook live? When I switch the usb config to 32 i32o from 2i2o I loose Spotify and the stream output. I have the xlive card and would like rot record via sd card and not a daw if possible.

[@AllamHouse]

To use all (most) of these features you will need to leave the card set to 32/32. Your computer (playing Spotify) will be entering the console on USB 1/2 so you will want to make sure you have that routed to the correct faders (or AUX in) and this might require some custom setup in the USER IN section. in terms of multitrack recording you just need to setup the Routing > Card area to have the desired inputs being captured via the card. The last sentence of your comment was a little confusing... "I have the xlive card and would like rot record via sd card and not a daw if possible." so I'm not exactly sure which route you are looking to go. If you want to record into a DAW with USB, it will be a standard 32 input mapping. If you are looking to record on the SD side you should be able to hit record on the screen of the console and it should function properly for the 32 multitracks. I have helped a few people remotely with the Xlive card, but have never had one myself to play with all the different features. I hope this helps you out.

[@_esohjey649]

The main output volume on my x32 console is not even and it is showing on the signal, it is affecting my live sound and i need help. Pls what could be the problem...

[@AllamHouse]

When you say ‘not even’ do you mean the left side is different from the right? If so, this means you have some inputs panned to one side or the other and could put everything back in the middle using the pan knob. If I am misunderstanding your question, please reals and try to explain differently.

[@RicCrouch]

Great advice. In my line of work, we say there are two levels of learning when it comes to tech. At the introductory level you ask, "why is it doing that?" At the experienced level you say, "IT'S DOING IT AGAIN!"

Yep, the real world learning is not always desirable, but tends to have some sticking power.

[@AllamHouse]

It is hard to say what could be the cause. It sounds like you did a good inspection of the internals, but I will say when I e had issues with the small screens I had to have a repair shop replace them. Did it only start with the update to the newest firmware?

[@davelowe7726]

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah, I understand. The actual Behringer service groups keep their "secret sauce" to themselves and don't share any fix tips. I use ProTech Audio in Silver Spring Maryland as they are the closest authorized repair shop to me. I've had them replace plenty of parts of these boards over the years. I have a small screen that is finicky on one of my consoles right now and I'm just kind of ignoring it until things become unusable.

[@annaencourages5986]

This is very helpful... Thank you 🙏🏼

[@nathangeno]

Is it possible that the console was using the input signals from the DAW as they were passing through each DAW channel? Like a “monitor out” of the DAW channel. So the console was actually in a virtual sound check setting and receiving from the DAW the whole service up until the time its source went away. Kinda hard to explain, but, each stage source was hitting the DAW directly, then passing through each DAW channel to the console on the appropriate channel.

[@AllamHouse]

I wish that was the case, but it was just a random glitch that switched my input settings. It is a feature in the X-live card and M32 and I feel like it was something in the firmware that caused a switch.

[@johnmcvicker6728]

If you look at the routing screen - there is a Play and a Record option (right knob). If that is the flip that it did, I bet you were running the scene in Record mode and somehow it flipped modes to Play since it has nothing to record to. I try to never use anything but Play mode in the routing just to be sure. I will record on the USB while in Play mode which is fine. I thought that someone held the Home button down too long and locked the board and didn't know how to get out :)

[@AllamHouse]

Yep, this is what I used to change back to the correct inputs. I just need to figure out why it changed by itself.

[@donaldbundy3499]

@@AllamHouse I haven't fully learned the new 4.x system but check the configuration page. There may be an option box that defaults to playback when the recording or daw is stopped, disconnected or session closed. Also I found some of the programmable hot buttons are set to assist with recording and may not be setup appropriately for your needs.

[@AllamHouse]

@@donaldbundy3499 I appreciate the reply and guidance. As I have helped different clients and been on a number of consoles (since this video) I found the ‘auto switch’ feature on consoles that have the X-live card instead of the X-USB card. It allows you to record onto an SD card on the console and bot need a computer and DAW. There is a setting to auto flip your inputs when you hit the play button on the SD card. It’s a cool feature, but isn’t on my console which still leaves me puzzled.

[@arnoldalbert6622]

Thanks for your videos. How much low cut should be added to a microphone and also how much show be added to a Keyboard in a church environment

[@AllamHouse]

The short answer is to low cut most instruments and vocals (except your kick drum and bass) between 90-150hz. That being said, it is situational so for keys I will stay around 120 if I have a bassist on stage, but will go down to 50hz if they are the only low-end producing instrument. Vocals are also specific to each person and situation. This video here goes through my vocal settings with on/off examples so you can hear the differences. I have similar videos for my drums, band and FX in case those interest you as well. They are in the linked playlist.

Please explain FF to: 8:25. "I flipped from Play to Record real quick" where and how did you do that?

[@AllamHouse]

When you go to the screen and hit Routing > Inputs the bottom right encoder allows a quick switch of inputs from REC (normal) to PLAY usually set to your card inputs.

[@roymurphy6181]

Hi. Thanks for the video!. Yup. Almost everyone behind a console at some point has made mistakes during production. Like trying to solo a channel fast, and get back to effects(or wherever). Hit mute instead of solo. Sorry Pastor! We only use a DAW in the video booth for livestream. So I can't make that mistake. LOL. However, during a rehearsal I could not get audio from the platform. Looked at everything. We lease from an older church who uses our newer sound system, on an A/B switch. Looked a the switch. Nope, it is set for us. Then this old brain kicked in and I realized, yup, forgot to put the X-Live card BACK TO RECORD after playing with it the day before. On another subject can someone answer a question about audio playback in the house and floor wedges?

[@DanielSmart2003]

I seen when playing back from a DAW (for me it was tracks live) and recording to USB drive to share the recording from a remixing to be used for post-editing of a video, where the X32 would freeze and audio is still coming out but none of the controls on the mixer didn’t work. Also, about the switching from rec to play modes, if you look at the channel strip it will show under the channel number a C, which means it’s set to get audio or input from the card if it say A or B meaning it’s input is set to AES50 A or B port, just something to be looking for if something like that happens again, but really hope it doesn’t, tho!

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah, I’m thinking this is a one-off thing that happened as it has been hard to replicate in my troubleshooting. Thanks for the comment, it continues to help the community build awareness.

[@helichuck1]

Hi! Can you use the de-Esser AND the fair compressor on the same channel?

[@AllamHouse]

You are not able to stack inserted plugins on the console. The way I do it is run my de-easer on the channel and then send that input (or a few inputs) to a MixBUS and insert the compressor there. Make sure to de-select the Main LR Bus from the input channel (in this method) so it doesn’t go right to your mix, but only the compressed, MixBUS version goes to your mix.

[@testlive7952]

Hi,Allam! I have a question I’m also a user of m32,did you need a driver to connect computer of my DAW for that mixer? If so,could you tell me what driver should I download?

If you have a MAC it will connect automatically. If you have a Windows machine you will need to download the X-USB driver from the Behringer website. This video talks about the basics of multitrack recording. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYHVkpqQlN1qg7M

When using the x32 to record my band. If I play back the band it sounds ok and you can here all instruments, however when I record the drums, and play back usb recording there is nothing there. Ay thoughts?

[@AllamHouse]

Check to make sure your routing > card screen matches your Routing > Inout tab (while in the REC setting). This will ensure all your inputs are being sent out the card to your DAW. If this is accurate, make sure your outputs on your DAW are set properly to send to the correct channels on the board. Finally, confirm your Routing > Inputs are mapped properly on the PLAY setting for those tracks to come back from your DAW.

[@QuantumComposer]

IIRC there is a setting somewhere to configure that behavior, at least with the X-Live. Default is to automatically toggle between card inputs and local inputs when switching from playback to record and vice versa.

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah, that setting is available for the X-Live card, but the odd thing is I am running the stock X-USB card. I’ve had a few others report similar scenarios, but luckily haven’t had it happen again.

[@codevyper]

Interesting find. I use my DAW for backing track playback so I've never used it for multitrack recording live bands. Instead I bought the X-Live card and loaded some SD cards in the back and just perform multitrack recording straight to the SD cards and then import them into the DAW later on. But thanks for pointing this out. I'll be on the lookout for it if I ever record live to my DAW directly.

[@AllamHouse]

Thanks for the comment. I only have the stock X-USB card (not the X-live card with SD option) so my settings are not as advanced as yours. Keep making great music.

[@BjorgenEatinger]

How do you import your tracks into your DAW? And which do you use?

[@codevyper]

@@BjorgenEatinger after the gig, the files on the SD cards of my X-32 have the recording saved as embedded multitrack WAV files. Audacity can red the files so I copy them off of SD card into my Mac, open them in Audacity to separate them out into individual tracks then import them in to Either Logic, which is what I use in my studio or, if I’m preparing them to become backing tracks on future gigs, I import them into Ableton and add them to the song project in Arranger view.

[@BjorgenEatinger]

@@codevyper I don't have a Mac will this all work on Windows machine?

[@codevyper]

@@BjorgenEatinger Audacity is available for WIndows and is free open source. As long as you have that and a decent DAW it should work no problem on Windows. The DAW itself doesn't matter as much as having a tool to split out the individual tracks in the WAV files generated in the X-32. Just a reminder though, you must be using the X-Live card in the X32. This doesn't apply to recordings made using a USB stick on the front of the mixer. That only records stereo pair so you cannot separate out the tracks.

[@matthewdrexler188]

I learned that lesson using just my recording interface once. When I was making all the beginner mistakes l starting out with a new setup. Like sequence of power initiation(the interface needs to be turned on before the computer exc) Many buggy issues especially dealing with input and output values can happen between your interface and DAW. The console acting as an interface in this case. Not really a flaw with the console but more an inconvenient time to learn about a tiny nuance regarding i/o setup. Your conclusion at the end perfectly sums that up nicely. 8:39-8:42

[@AllamHouse]

Thanks for the input.

[@stevecarrAB]

I don't understand how that could happen because the X-32 software I use always asks "Do you want to load settings from the mixer to the PC or PC to mixer?" (or something like that.) Nonetheless, thank you for the good story and advice !

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah, it was odd for sure and I learned a valuable lesson that day.

[@VegasAudioRentals]

I know this video is a little older, but for anyone coming across it like I did just now, this sounds like it might be a bug with the card settings. SETUP > CARD > CHANNEL ROUTING. There are three options under the Channel Routing header on the CARD page under SETUP; "Recording", "Playback", or "Automatic". This sounds like the board might have had an odd response to the "Automatic" setting, which is supposed to allow the board to know when you want your inputs selected vs. when you want playback from the card (SD or USB input on the card) selected. Shouldn't happen that way of course, but we all know how that goes! As a best practice, I think I'll never select "Automatic" again, set the Channel Routing option to "Recording", and then just manually select "Record" or "Playback" on the ROUTING menu when I actually want to flip sources. Thanks for pointing out this potential issue! I'll definitely keep this in the back of my mind for any troubleshooting moving forward. So odd, wouldn't have thought of it otherwise!

[@VegasAudioRentals]

Scratch that, I just read further down where you say yours doesn't have the "Automatic" setting. Now the reason it happened to you is even more confusing!

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah, I do appreciate the thoughtful comment. I do wish I had the ‘automatic’ feature on mine as it would have explained a lot.

[@mikesb113]

So i have a question that may have been asked a million times before. Is there a way i can set a limiter on a specific channel's input? The use case is this; one of my singers moves the mic back and forth between their mouth and chest, depending on whether they're singing a solo verse or a chorus. Adjusting the fader to compensate for the distance difference between every verse and chorus seems like a less efficient method. I would like to be able to set it to a certain position at chest level and have a limiter keep it from being way too loud when at mouth level. I supposed this would be easier than trying break a habit of 20+ years. I should mention I've had this board the better part of a month and have no prior mixing experience, just a mind to learn and work😅

[@AllamHouse]

Thanks for reaching out. This method is kind of a "level 2" of using this board, but certainly not a crazy request. The process would be similar to adding it to a MixBUS (more common usage of the limiter), but applied to an individual input. You will set the effect in one of the FX racks 5-8, set the input channel on the selector and then push the "INS" button to turn on the insert. You may want to check the channel strip order to make sure this limiter is the last item in your chain (after the onboard EQ and compressor). Keep in mind that this limiter will begin to "pump" and add some artifacts when it is hit too hard so you might look at doing some strong compression on the channel strip and maybe adding another compressor afterwards instead of a limiter. I do this technique and you can watch this video here to see my settings and approach on all of my vocal channels. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2bbqn2OltGcg8k

Thank you so much for your reply! I'll give this a shot

[@caseykittel]

Cool video. answer: there’s a setting in the (card?) menu for either Playback, record or auto. Maybe you have it set to auto? QUESTION: Like you said. I like the drum sound the midas board has a lot. Can you explain the routing of taking 8 drum tracks recorded elsewhere and: 1- send out 8 auxes from DAW 2- physically hook aux outs to 8 channels going into the mixer 3- then recording that back into 8 (or more with separate effects) new channels in the DAW I want that Midas sound on those drums. Thanks!

[@AllamHouse]

For my issue, I do not have an "auto" feature that I could change like the Midas has with the SD Card. That's what makes this scenario so confusing. For your question, I am unclear with step 1. Are you trying to build AUX mixes in the DAW and send them to monitors? or are you trying to build AUX mixes that pair with step 2 that route back into the console? Although it might be a bit to type, maybe you can send me what you are trying to accomplish and I can help you with the routing options. If it is easier (outside of YT comments) you can catch me using the contact on my website at sound.allamhouse.com

[@caseykittel]

@@AllamHouse thanks! maybe the term is re-record? re-amp? I'm just trying to take 8ch of drums and route them out of the M32R (aux outs) and loop them physically back into the board through the mic pres (using 1/4" to xlr cables). I am trying to playback tracks from my DAW and record them back onto my DAW at the same time. I am hoping to take some already recorded drum tracks and add the Midas pre amp sound to them. maybe use a little EQ and compression on the way back in too.

[@AllamHouse]

I see. Yeah, you would need to route the initial 8 channels into individual busses which would allow them to be sent individually out XLR outputs on the back of the console and then back into the desk to other input channels. Make sure you de-select these busses from the Main Stereo LR Bus so you do not create some crazy feedback loop. Everything else would be pretty straight forward for sending tracks to/from a DAW.

[@caseykittel]

@@AllamHouse great. I’ll give it a shot! Thanks.

[@CV-ee3tk]

I would be willing to bet that the left side switch on the X32 to enable remote control surface was on and you had an unknown dependency from the DAW that caused a routing change when the DAW went away. This switch has caused me similar problems when the DAW was switched off in a session.

Wonder if you could help me out with some routing on an X32? I just started doing the sound at the church. I am pretty familiar with mixers as I record a lot of music. Not so much on live sound. We have a lady on piano> I call her Jerry Lee(not to her face). She is what I call> way heavy handed. I feel like I'm in a honky tonk bar sometimes. Anyway they mike the piano to send the piano sound to a you tube feed with video. The piano in the sanctuary needs no volume thru the sound system as it is generally too loud. They have the mike for the audio to the you tube feed. How can I route the audio from the piano to the output going to a laptop computer with the you tube feed without sending it thru the church sound system? I assume I would maybe use a dca to send the output to the computer? Any button pushing help would be appreciated, Thanks

[@AllamHouse]

First thing I would do is make sure your live stream audio is setup on a MixBUS so you can have a separate mix for your house and stream. The video below shows how to do this. I personally use a Post-Fader MixBUS setup so that my engineers only have to get things setup and then mix the house which will in turn alter the stream as well. Next: Select your piano channel and go to the left of the screen and find the button called "Stereo LR Bus" and make sure it is NOT orange. This will make sure the channel does not go into your house mix. Then set the fader to unity (0) Finally: Put on some headphones, solo your live stream MixBUS and add in the piano to your stream according to your desired mix. Suggested Videos: (1) Setup a MixBUS for your stream - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKmXeZ13p7mYkKs (2) Advanced Mix for Stream - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pn7RkpyreJpoiLs

Hi Allam How to control microphone noise.

[@AllamHouse]

I would need some more description of the microphone noise to help you.

[@QuicksilverSG]

The X32 recording interface firmware is defective to the point where it represents an unacceptable risk to live performance reliability. I have seen X32's go dark and reboot in reaction to plugging in a USB drive that wasn't formatted the way the X32 expects. The problem is not that the X32 requires a certain format to work compatibly with a USB peripheral, but that its internal USB driver is so unstable it crashes the whole console when it encounters something it doesn't understand.

[@AllamHouse]

Thanks for the input. It also might be worth sending this into Behringer to see if they can make improvements in their firmware for future updates.

[@PanRider939]

Feel your pain, could happen to anyone. We multitrack most weeks too so we have material to practice mixing, teach, learn and setting up channels. The one major glitch I had was when the USB stick filled up and it completely locked the console up. Fortunately I pulled out the stick and it freed up. Nobody noticed.

[@AllamHouse]

Thanks for the consolation and input about the USB Stick. Others can learn from us.

Can I put a camera in x32 for live camera

I believe you are asking how to get live sound into a camera or streaming device to build a live stream. This video talks about three main options to make this happen. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnjXYq1rfpyVorM

[@pickholder6189]

Yeah - this has happened to me when I had a band who wanted a multitrack recording. Was fine for them until I closed their laptop running cubase. I agree with what you said - do not mess mid performance. I now only give out multitracks after the event has finished. The X32 is great for the money but does do weird things on occasions you can not explain.

Ah, finally some validation. Thanks for the post.

User Outs with a 9630 is the best thing that Midas built and updated. Record all the inputs plus your aux ins, FX returns, your FOH mix and much more into one file. When you're done there's no DAW interference.

Nice. I'll have to do some research on that unit.

[@jundytouch]

I connected my laptop with the S1 DAW to the X32 while the live event was going on for a multi-track recording. And disconnected before the event was over. I am glad my moves did not ruin the sound system.

I have an X32 Compact and use it extensively in my studio with my DAW (Cubase). I have never, as in not ever ever, had this problem. But I do know what you mean about not changing something during a show. Perhaps one of your techs, a newbie maybe, was messing with midi or osc?

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah, this video was a while ago and I wonder if there was some glitch in the software since the X-Live card offers some auto-switch feature on the inputs. I don’t have that card (just the standard X-USB), but it’s hard to say specifically the issue. Maybe it’s just a “lessons learned” scenario. That is for the comment and addition to the community.

[@adrian_sanchez]

I know exactly this feeling. No signal. Only for me, our snake drops connection with the mixer. Everything works fine during morning practice, then when service is about to start, nothing. Same for a popping sound. Fine during a practice but after some quiet time, no one is on stage, it starts to pop out of the speakers. Now that i have a DAW working, I'm waiting to capture it in action.

[@AllamHouse]

I actually had a similar issue at a church I was doing some contracted work for and everything was fine during the first 45 minutes and then things started popping. It ended up being their Cat5 cable causing the issue. It also didn’t help that their cabling next to the digital snake was somewhat of a rats nest. I ended up being able to wiggle (slightly) the Cat5 at the snake and could replicate the popping.

[@adrian_sanchez]

My church just recently got the Behringer x32.. For about 20 years I've run sound on an analog mixer, and I must say that the x32 is AWESOME!!!!!! It's Friday now and we had it installed Monday. Wednesday night was slightly nerve-wracking but I still had fun. These videos are very helpful. I'm going to check to see if you have any tutorials on recording a service on this board. We have been recording messages on CDs at this point.

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah this console upgrade is going to be great once you get the basics figured out. In terms of recording you have two basic options. 1) format a thumb drive to Fat32 and put it in the USB slot on the front of the console. Hit the view button next to it and on the screen hit the record button. When done, make sure to hit the stop button to render the file. If you don’t hit stop or remove the thumb drive your file will be corrupt and unusable. 2) setup a laptop with a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) and record multitracks and/or your mix to the computer. This will allow you to post-produce your audio and then send it to a CD or any other digital form you might want. This video discusses multitracking. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYHVkpqQlN1qg7M

[@toxictime9604]

Sounds like you had the auto mode engaged in the routing section, which switches between recording and playback setup itself. You'd maybe want to try to switch to either recording or playback mode depending on your situation to avoid the automatic switching off your routing. In my rehearsals I had similar mystics happening two times until I figured that out. Once understood however I now use the auto mode flawlessly and I'm happy to have it. But you have to set up ins and outs for both (rec and play mode) properly first

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah, that is a logical situation if I had the X-live card on my board, but I have the stock X-USB which doesn’t offer that auto-switch setting. That is what made this situation so odd. While I have had other people report a similar issue, I feel lucky it hasn’t happened again.

[@dustinkurz4330]

When you shut down the daw it reset to the onboard sound card

[@AllamHouse]

Thanks for the comment and help. That is a feature I wish I had (and it would explain the shift), but that is only available on the upgraded X-live card and not on the standard X-USB card which is what makes this so puzzling. Thanks again.

[@barrettabney]

I too have suffered this issue. I also got hit with leaving the DAW enabled on PLAY while recording, introducing the latency of the DAW feed into the house, causing dramatic delay issues.

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah, I typically check my PA first thing with a playback and have left it on, but caught it really quick in my actual sound check. It confused ,e for a second, but I played it off. Haha.

[@venjsystems]

Add the X-Live option card and do your multitracking directly to the mixer, no need for a DAW, also there is a setting in the mixer regarding the switch between playback/recording. So it's not a flaw, it's user error.

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah, I have the Xlive card on my WING and it is a nice feature, but my church only has the factory X-USB card. The firmware only offers the auto-change settings for the cards that have SD in them so we do not have those settings available which is what makes this scenario really odd.

[@monmixer]

Had a simiar issue with presonus studio live using the fire wire which if you are familiar with presonus old school consoles. What happened was you can use the firewire to your laptop so you can view all of your settings on the laptop and also control from your laptop or tablet. Well apparently sometimes the fire wire fails mid show, happened to me twice. I figured it out the first time. We were out doors with a band doing a concert at campground holiday weekend at a lake, Full system, 4 double 18 subs and we are just ricking away when the PA died. Took me about 1 or 15 seconds but I committed and reached and yanked that firewire cable out of the desk and bingo, console starts sending signal again. The studio live consoles not sure about the next series, AI.

[@AllamHouse]

I do remember the Presonus console and FireWire connections. I actually just sold my original StudioLive 16.4.2 a year ago when I downsized my X32 to the Compact. I liked that StudioLive for recording drums and other small need sessions and I was really comfortable on it. I’m glad you were “on your toes” that day to pull that cable so quick.

[@McMillanScottish]

I don’t know if they have fixed this since I noticed it years ago, but I remember that changing scenes did not affect any preset channel input changes. So if you set aux one and two input to go through channels 31 and 32 on one scene, changing scenes will not change the routing. Maybe they’ve changed that, I don’t know. But be careful.

[@AllamHouse]

I think Scene safes is the feature you are talking about. Thanks for the input and offering to the community.

Found this video again after not seeing it for a while. Thought of another thing to watch out for. Don’t double-assign anything to your DCAs. You will forget you did that, and you will wonder what the hell happened to that one channel. But if you have a single channel assigned to more than one DCA group, then turning one of the assigned groups down will kill that channel until you figure out what you did. Both of the tips that I have put on this comment section, by the way, have been learned at my own, great, personal peril. So take the freebies.

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah, DCA's are a great tool, but I do run into a lot of customers that have doubled up an input channel into multiple DCA's. It can certainly get people into an issue and cause a lot of headache if you aren't used to using them. Thanks for your contributions.

[@jmmikesjm]

Your card routing is on auto rec/play. Do you have the x-live card?

[@AllamHouse]

No, it’s the standard X-USB card. I’ll look into that setting to see if it is available to me.

Wow Man... a totally counterintuitive behavior: what is expect to come via USB from a switched-off DAW???!!! The question now is: is a setting on the X32 that switch the input system or is some "trigger" that came from the laptop once you kill the DAW?

Right, in theory it is a stand alone unit that is just there to record. I still have not been able to replicate it, but I also catch myself at the end of any recording and make sure to leave the DAW open until I finish the gig.

[@graysonpeddie]

I do not have a Behringer X32 console at home, but I learned something from your video about routing. If I go into routing section, by default the routing is set for the following: Record: Channel/Source: Channel 1-8/Local 1-8 Channel 9-16/Local 9-16 Channel 17-24/Local 17-24 Channel 25-32/Local 25-32 Play: Channel 1-8/Card 1-8 Channel 9-16/Card 9-16 Channel 17-24/Card 17-24 Channel 25-32/Card 25-32 Below the main routing section, after the "Aux In Remap," there is a Record and Play radio buttons. Whatever the radio buttons selected is highlighted in orange. I have selected the Play button and the selections below the Card section are in orange. If I select Record, the Local section is in orange indicating to me that I can route the inputs. Once I'm in Play section, I can route the inputs to Local instead of Card. Using a Behringer X32 Editor, I feel like I am learning about how to use Behringer X32, yet I do not have an X32 console. Hopefully when I get a high-paying job, perhaps one day I can afford to buy an X32 console. And just playing with the editor makes me drool and I love it. I'm not involved in live venues and churches, but I could see myself using an X32 as an audio interface with DSP built right in. Thank you for an awesome video even though I tend to skip the intro and get right into it. I'm a KZbin Premium subscriber, by the way.

[@peniku8]

My X32 died mid-show twice because it didn't like the USB stick that was plugged into it. One time it went unresponsive during playback and I couldn't interface with it anymore, the other time the same thing happened during recording and I thought 'ok I need to reboot this thing, let's do that after the song' but the console started freaking out more and more until it completely dropped the sound. Removing the USB drive didn't help during this.

The play feature is by default card input. It is not a flaw with the mixer

[@AllamHouse]

Yep, I'm aware of how that works. The issue I ran into is that the console flipped from REC to PLAY by itself. This could happen on the Midas consoles (or the X32 with the X-Live card) as it is a setting that can be applied to automatically switch, but I have a stock X-USB card so it is really odd.

Seemed the logical way to go, as I use a Dante playback computer as well. + adding any other musician with daw, dante license on their computer, then when say you have 32ch wet signals from mixer, you can add the dry from theirs direct, do 48 or 64ch rec in via dante... :)

[@miroslavspevak]

i think the problem is not the X32, bit Studio one... Studio one deeply integrates with Presonus digital consoles, it could send a OSC command for switching record/playback routing. The X32 can receive this type of command: /config/routing/routswitch enum {REC, PLAY}: routing 0: Rec [default value] 1: Playback This command will automatically select the /config/routing/IN or the /config/routing/PLAY parameter blocks below, respective of the OSC parameter value [0] or [1]

But you made it through! That's why our sound is stagnant right now, because our pastor wants to make sure a Sunday isn't sabotaged by someone with sticky fingers, but if you make different scenes, they can do whatever they want and not mess with the one 8sed for Sundays...or they could even be able to make a better mix...

[@AllamHouse]

Yeah, if I were in your spot (or your location) I would setup to record multitracks. This allows you (or others) to push those tracks back through the console at a non-service time and work on the mix or live stream or even just practice changing things. You DO want to save your original scene and you can save a new scene to work on so you can flip quickly between the two. I always teach that you have to be willing to mess up in order to learn.

Sorry to hear that it messed up the production. But it might be possible that your card inputs were selected and that your DAW was in monitor mode, where it would send the input channel straight back to the output channel, so back into the console. When you closed your DAW this could have stopped the input monitoring and so the input signal on the console. I don’t really think that there would be a relationship between the USB connection and the input selection

That's not what happened. your console inputs were set to the DAW and not whatever preamps you were using. You can patch it like this or you can have your console setup as if it's still running a virtual soundcheck. Basically, the console was passing audio through the computer as you were using it.

[@AllamHouse]

I’d have to look into it since I run the services the same every Sunday when I mix and running the inputs through the DAW would have added a bunch of latency that I would have noticed. I’m still not ruling it out as an option so thanks for the input.
