Gain vs Trim, Whats the Difference?

[@tkldr]

Good info! Answer at 7:20

Thanks again. Much better understanding when having two consoles shared (Live & Broadcast).

[@danielcox4912]

Would love to see a video with advice on processing crowd mics for broadcast mix with FOH console. Gain eq gate and compression and also to keep them consistent without having to adjust levels throughout service( singing and speaking )

Love your set up Great tutorial Drew

[@SleepThatBurns]

Very helpful! Again!

[@3xAudio]

Well explained. Thanks

I am encountering an issue with my Behringer X32 that I have not experienced before. Specifically, the signal on channels 1 through 16 is extremely weak, despite the gain being maxed out and the faders set to their maximum position. Even with these settings, the signal is barely audible. This problem seems to be isolated to channels 1-16, as the other channels are functioning normally. I would appreciate any insights or suggestions from those who may have encountered a similar issue or have any ideas on what could be causing this. Thank you for your assistance.

Hi Drew, can you make real life example of this, with alive band or input so we can hear the difference

[@elimchurchromsey1385]

Hi Drew. Love your videos. I am about to buy a WING. On my existing mixer I have a 20db PAD button on the inputs. The GAIN setting only goes down to -2.5db. What do I do if the input is still too loud (clipping)? Thanks. Paul

Virtual Sound Check. The card in/out taps and inserts between the pre- amp (analog Gain) and the D/A ( Digital Trim). Can I set Trim on all channels to zero so playback from DAW gives me the same levels I heard when recording?

[@CecilBurrows-v5w]

I have a question about the USB playback function on the x32

[@kojoXAppau]

So the solution is to split the signals for a different stage boxes?

[@petprins]

good lesson tnk youy

[@DbiPro]

What about gain tracking

[@cameronclarkhull]

really random question, but is there any way we can lock a gain once it's been set on the X32? I need to get my students more confident on using faders, instead of the gain to prevent feedback.

[@markbreslin654]

Hello Drew, how does one determine the nominal gain level on their consule?

[@riggythorpe]

Hi Drew, have you ever thought of making tutorials for the other versions of the Behringer X32. Such as “X32Rack, X32 Compact, or X32 Producer? Your tutorials are detailed and effective.

Great video, Drew. I've got a FOH M32 and an X32 dedicated for broadcast. The M32 is feeding the X32 via AES50. Is there a way to have both consoles operate gain independently? Would connecting both consoles directly to our S32, as opposed to interconnecting both consoles via AES50, add any benefit from a gain perspective?

[@bflatmusiccimix1234]

connect your house to the A on the S32, then your Broadcast to B from the S32 to the A on the X32

[@johnperez1516]

@@bflatmusiccimix1234 Thanks!....will give it a try.

[@mbalabenoit7750]

Also i can use digital trim with analog snak?

[@breadman6683]

Hey Drew, quick question. Will adjusting trim affect the IEM mixes? Or is the purpose of trim so that the faders can sit at unity with correct gain? Thanks!

[@052RC]

If you are plugging some type of analog device into a channel on a mixer, you adjust the analog channel gain to what it needs to be for optimal gain staging. Trim is also gain, but it comes into play after the signal has been converted to digital. Trim is used to make small level adjustments so you don't have to go through the process of re-setting your analog gain for something minor. If you need more than a small tweak, you need to fix it with analog gain. I believe this answers question. If not, try to give more details.

Great video please could you make a tutorial explaining how to achieve the Benjamin Dube kind of BGVs. I love the smooth and airy BGVs mix. I use x32 and Behringer wing

[@DbiPro]

Ya show me plz. Lol
