This is amazing to practice mixing and remain sharp. I want to go back to the shop and try this immediately.

MultiTracks are SOO much fun. :) -Nathan R

Hey man I just wanted to let you know that you’re a great presenter/teacher. Keep it up!

Thanks so much Dave!

OH THAAATT'S WHAT THE DANTE CARD DOES!!! Thank you for this!! Because i was really lost on why this Dante card seemed to be so revolutionary... and expensive. Lol.

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

😂🫶🫶Yes!! They are also expensive lol! Tragic. 🙃😀

Hi Nathan, it's me, Sebastian from Germany who you met in Germany with Tracy D. Matthews I love your Videos S.

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

Hey Sebastian!! Thank You so much. Let me know if you ever need anything. Hope you are well :)

[@IloveGERMANYtoo.]

So far so good. Question: Do you have simular Music like this in the US?

[@skaduuu]

10:30 fun fact: you can also send audio via network with a USB-Cat adapter such as a Silex Printserver. You are bound to one device there too, but you are not limited to any USB cable lenghts. My console is in another room as my recording Computer and that works without any problems for 3 years now. The console is then available in the network and you can connect to it as it was plugged in your PC :) btw: it even works wireless but I wouldn't recommend using that in production :D

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

Interesting! What specific Network Adaptor device do you use? -Nathan

[@musicjohnnyking]

Thanks for these videos. I thought only Drew made this level of quality video. I'm glad to know that I was wrong.

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

Thanks MusicJohnnyKing! Drew creates great stuff, we are in it for the same reasons. To help folks do Production with Excellence. -Nathan

You know you don't have to go through manually rerouting the whole thing every time you need to switch from Recording to Playback mode, right? (Everything you did starting at 9:00) You can just use the rightmost Encoder on the Routing / Input page to change the settings from Recording to Play and then press the Encoder to actually make the switch.

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

I do know about that, but didn't when I recorded the video. oops. Also, It's nice to know the logic of the routing for recording & playback. -Nathan R

[@yuriselukoff]

@@CrazyAmazingDesigns yeah, this button seems to be some sort of an undocumented new addition. Even in the official User Manual, on page 38, there’s a screenshot of the Routing/Home screen, and this button ain’t on it.

[@strobelightaudio]

at 9:25, instead of changing manually to card inputs, I think you can change from Record to Play using the far right hand knob.

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

I've never used that button, I need to remember to see what it does lol! -Nathan R

[@marcelobustos5328]

Hey Nathan, firstly thanks for a great video! I thought I try this multitrack recording on GarageBand and managed to record all 32 tracks, however, when switching back to playback on the x32 and playing back from the multitrack recording the x32 only plays back on channel 1&2… 😅 Any tips on what I might be doing wrong? Again, great video! 🙌🏻

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

Hi, Inside of Garage Band, You will need to select the X-USB as the output Audio interface for playback to the X32. Then for each recorded track, you can assign them to output channels 1-32, this will cause them to playback on there corresponding channels on the x32. Assuming you changed the INPUT tab from Local and Stage Box inputs to now receive audio from Card 1-32. -Nathan

[@carla.m.3814]

Hi! Thanks for this video. Really helpful. Question: I would like to have a separate mix for the FOH and live streaming. How can I do that with just the x32 and 1 PC? Thanks!

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

@@carla.m.3814 Use a MixBus to mix the live stream, then send that MixBus to card 1/2. Connect a USB cable from the x32 to the computer and select X-USB as the interface. If you’d like to book a training session, I could help you set this up and understand the routing more. -Nathan R

[@samierturk4668]

Hi Nathan, thank you for the video. I managed to record 32 multitracks into my laptop with only a usb cable(printer cable) on M32. But lately the USB started to loose sync with the mixer. Any tips for using it without an expansion card? Thank you.

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

Hi, I have always found that USB connection to be pretty solid, I'm not sure why it would be going in and out like that. I would make sure the card is tight, maybe remove the two screws, pull the card from the m32 and re-seed it. Then secure the screws again and see if that helps. There is no X-USB without the expansion card. You could replace the card with another card, but the Card is the Interface connection. -Nathan

[@eneshahdeedee8167]

My playback is terrible with pops, clicks and crackles. Records fine but sending back to the mixer sounds awful now we can't livestream church service😢.

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

@@eneshahdeedee8167 What are you using to get the audio from Playback into your sound system? -Nathan

[@coastlifechurchgulfport1272]

We currently record through Ableton on a computer. However, we would like to have a back up recording by using a flash drive in the usb port on the Behringer x32.The flash drive we used previously was a Kingston 32gb high performance usb 3.2 and the recording would skip or "pause", so chunks of audio would be missing. Do we need a different flash drive or is it something in the settings on the Behringer?

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

I have had these problems in the past with the x32, The USB stick needs to be under 32GB and Formatted to FAT32. Try formatting it and see if it works better. I regularly use a Kingston 32gb USB stick to record via USB. -Nathan R

[@coastlifechurchgulfport1272]

@@CrazyAmazingDesigns Thanks for your quick reply and advice.

[@gersongonzalez6385]

So I use the usb to send audio to my laptop and stream online can I also take advantage of that and record multi track? I am wanting to record for training purposes.

[@szczepanzajac5646]

Can I find such multi-track recordings somewhere on the Internet so that I can play them on my x32?

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

Yes, MultiTracks.com is a great place to purchase Worship MultiTracks. Other than that, Recording a Sunday Service and playing with playback from that is the next best option. -Nathan

[@Edub95]

I’m having difficulty getting ableton to recognize the XUSB connection. I don’t get the option of XUSB in the audio device drop down. Thanks!

[@CrazyAmazingDesigns]

The only time I’ve not seen XUSB show up, there was an issue in setup-> global, Sample Rate/ and click source. At the top of the screen, I believe I had red on the AES50 or card connection. -Nathan R, Email me and I can help further.

[@Edub95]

Will do, thanks!

[@eneshahdeedee8167]

Please help me, xusb records fine but playback is terrible, can't do virtual soundcheck, can't livestream. What's wrong?
