seems we need 2 more videos, how to set up the big screen, and how to ring out a room. Great videos.

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

More videos coming soon! Keep the ideas coming. Also, Watchout for my podcast, Murders to Music....all about the career of homicide detective turns live musician / DJ.... Lots of tech, live music insight, working with musicians and a ride along with a veteran homicide detective to discuss all the crap they don't teach you in the academy!

At our church on low budget we got a ui24r in a some like fixed position near the choir (we are a church in Italy, we do mass) I create an audio snake to bring 4to and 4from the FOH desk to the mixer like 30meters of cat cable that works perfectly as xlr cable, at the FOH desk we setup a refurbished pc that turn on when he got power and open up full screen on a touch screen the mixer page, with the snake we bring stereo headphones and a stereo aux that we use for streaming, the ui24r it's very powerfull with routing and usage! This december we are going to experiment with two ui24r in cascade mode (one member of a band here has one and we host a choir festivals so lot's of input

Sounds like you need another main console touchscreen. That’s what i’m about to do. Either way, you’re setup is just fine and it works. I’ll sometimes use the laptop to multitrack record live performances, but that rarely happens. Or else i’ll just use a high write speed flashdrive. I’ll mainly use the laptop for plugins. Cool setup!

[@rickdey5407]

What touch screen are you using in the middle of the video. Need to get myself one. Thanks

[@greenpea9412]

I just purchased a 24 inch touch screen monitor to use with this system in mind. I am familiar with the Behringer interface but am new to this one. I think once I get used to where everything is I will like it. I almost bought the x32rack from Behringer but why not try this instead.

[@haeleypapa]

Can you share a link as to what make screen....church just bought a ui24 and the iPad isn't cutting it.

[@craigchristy3953]

What type of touchscreen monitor do you recommend?

[@grizmileham7029]

I've been running a UI24r for nearly four years and I find them utterly unreliable. As a studio unit, they're a dream for what they can do, but the one thing they can't do is execute. There has never been a session where I was not shut down by UI24r hijinks. Either the UI doesn't run right, or the wifi disappears. I admire your bravery using these in a live setting, I would never dare, and I only play small insignificant shows. To make this setup reliable would require a substantial investment in concessions to its shortcomings, as you've demonstrated in this video (huge touchscreen monitor, iPad, *and* a computer.) Meanwhile this Yamaha gear right next to me right now has been happily making quiet things loud for 20+ years.

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

I hear you, I’ve heard a lot of people complain about the reliability of the unit. Personally, I haven’t had any issues…. Yet. Mine has executed 100’s of times flawlessly., I understand that is not everyone’s experience. For what they are, they are packed with versatility and features. But, if it doesn’t work, it’s a paperweight. You don’t need all of the screens, computers, etc. that I have, but for me those devices helps my work flow. That said, I’ve ran the whole thing off of an iPad while drumming and leading a band… well over 100 times. They are not for everyone and they are not perfect, but I like mine. Now that said, I’m looking for the next solution because too many people say they crap out and I’d be naive to think it couldn’t happen to me. In the meantime, I’ll keep helping those of us who use them routinely.

[@andrestrydom3065]

Thank you for this great share. Allows even more appreciation for this great unit. Must just say I'd be hesitant to just link Wi-Fi... Cat5 cannot fail unless someone cuts it😜

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

how are you connecting via Cat5?

[@deepsoy165]

does it need to be a touch screen or can it use a USB and/or MIDI controller in addition to a screen?

[@grooveattitude06]

Bonjour et merci pour ce tuto bien utile j'ai besoin d'une précision faut-il une carte SD spéciale pour enregistrer en multipiste ? Merci

[@ChrisMcDaniel1]

Looks great! Thanks for posting! Which touchscreen monitor did you use? I tried one that didn't work and investigating a replacement.

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

Thank you. I can’t remember and I’m out of town. However, that question has been answered several times in the comments. It’s a Viewsonic, don’t know the model #. Sorry about that. Subscribe for more content!😊

hola que marca y modelo es la pantalla tactil , de cuantas pulgada es la pantalla? y si tiene conexion a wifi , para que se comunique con la soundcraft, desde ya gracias

[@elitesoundandlight]

Hi there, love the setup, could you tell me how you got the touchscreen and the laptop to speak to each other so when you select a channel on the touch screen it automatically shows the eq and that on the laptop? Cheers

[@apwasapwas]

that would be super helpful!!

[@chpertl]

For those who are still looking. .. Under Settings--> Local you will find the option "Sync selected channel". All Browsersessions using the same Sync ID will then swap the channel

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

See below.

[@KhoaAnhMusic]

Thank you for your video. I have one question that stuck in my mind: can we use the ui24 as a stagebox on stage, and run a LAN Cable directly to the PC for controlling the unit from far away? Thank you !!!

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

Yes

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

The question has been asked how do you change the name of the Aux. On all channel labels, press and hold, a menu pops up then rename channel.

[@sfcnetworkministries]

whats the name of the screen int he centre

[@Zephonic]

How is the touch screen connected to the Ui24R? HDMI? How does the touch input get from the display to the mixer? USB? Thanks!

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

Monitor is HDMI to laptop. Monitor is USB to laptop for touch capabilities.

[@patgiff101055]

NICE VIDEO! What is the physical connection between the big touch screen and the Ui24R? I only use mine with a MacBook or iPad, so wondering what software is needed to make the Ui24R work with a touchscreen (I assume the touch screen has no browser or OS associated with it?) Thanks!

[@lucas_mende_s]

I had the same question. Likely the touchscreen is connected to the Mac

[@patgiff101055]

@@lucas_mende_sI ended up buying a Viewsonic 16“ touchscreen with Mac drivers and it works very well. Used it at my last gig.

[@nathnaeltsegaye4724]

HDMI cable

[@arjay535]

UI24 will allow you to connect any HDMI device as a display just by plugging it into the built in HDMI port. You can also connect a USB mouse and keyboard for control - use the USB ports. I’ve run a 46in TV display at home in this configuration. These touchscreens usually have HDMI out and a USB connection to send the touch inputs so just hook them up. I don’t have one yet but looking at doing it as my iPad isn’t really working as a main control when not at home.

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

Hey all, sorry I missed this one. The laptop is connected to the Ui24 via WiFi. The monitor is connected to the laptop as a 2nd monitor. I opened a second browser window and moved it to the monitor and BOOM! you are in business. A

[@johnkroner4248]

Just out of curiosity, are you using a WiFi connection or a hard wire ethernet cable to your computer?

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

Wifi

[@RR-zq8zc]

Is your middle monitor connected straight into the mixer? or using a browser through a computer?

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

Hey there, I am using a browser through the computer / extra monitor

[@carlotheatheist]

is it possible to combine two ui24r? by connecting the 2nd ui24r to another ui24r via RJ45 Cable?

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

Yes, it is called cascading. Directions on KZbin.

[@venkateshkadali5451]

Hi could you please explain how to setup the screen that you did in this video.

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

Additional monitor off of the computer and opened a browser on it

[@user-pt8de2sr4j]

Hi! Wil you tell me, how to set up the program view like you have on your laptop and the big monitor?

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

Sure. On the computer It is called “Big D” mode and is an option found in settings. It can only be displayed using either a computer or a streaming box with a touchscreen . I suggest a computer, keep it clean and easy to troubleshoot if there is a problem. But that’s it! Toggle Big D to ON and mix away! Good Luck! On the monitor it is set up as a second monitor out of my computer and I opened a new window on that screen. Opened the Ui interface and opened just the main mix screen. That’s all! Remember, use the USB and HDMI to get all the features of the touchscreen.

Hey. Great setup. Can I ask a question? Have you had any problems with the unit so far? Any audio drop outs? Thanks

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

😳 Now that you’ve asked it’s all going to go downhill!!!!! No, I have had Zero issues in the 3-4 years I’ve owned this. Used it probably 3-400 times.

[@paddyeire96]

@@StreamlineEntertainment haha! It's a fantastic machine, just always in the back of my mind that something might go wrong. I've heard all these reviews about audio dropouts and things like that. The gui is the best out there I think.

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

@@paddyeire96 I have the same concern based on other’s experiences, but it hasn’t happened yet. I always also think “I should carry my spare mixer” and never put it in the truck…… again, now I’m jinxed!

[@bijligamerz9370]

Can I direct connect a viewsonic monitor to ui24 mixer with hdmi cable. Please reply me ergent. It's possible then I by a viewsonic monitor.

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

Yes you can. However, you will need USB connection also for the touchscreen feature to work.

[@tjramos1549]

how did you split view in your middle touch screen?

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

Hello! It’s called Big D mode and you can select it from the menu. You have to be running a high resolution monitor and through a computer, to access it. I forget all the details, but if you search “Big D mode” on KZbin you’ll find lots of videos. DO NOT SEARCH “Big DD”…… it’ll be something completely different!

[@breadandgravymusic]

I am new to my UI24 and I am trying to record multi-track to USB flash drive. I have 4 musicians and 2 vocalists. Is this even possible? It has worked for me with 2 musicians and 1 vocalist but I have yet to try with this many channels involved. I would love some info if you can help...all I can find online is info about how it should work but no info on anyone actually doing it. Am I wasting my time? should I wait until I have the funds to just use it as an interface and buy a DAW? Thank you for any info you can give here!

[@StreamlineEntertainment]

Hello, deep breath… we’ve got this! Yes, you can record up to 22 channels simultaneously. 1. Connect all of your inputs, set the levels, eq, etc. get it ready to rock! 2.press on the “play” triangle that’s on your top bar 3. Select “Multitrack Config” and highlight the channels you want to record. 4. Select “Multitrack” 5. Press record. Remember record will both start and stop the recording. You can now press “Mix/Gain” to return to the mixer mode. Bonus tip! Once done recording. 1.Get back to the “Multitrack” screen. Press “activate soundcheck” , select the recording you just made and press play. and go back to the mixer mode (press mix / gain) 2. Adjust levels, eq, mix the song to your liking. Important, have your master at or near unity when you mix the song to your liking. 3. Put a second flash drive into the other USB port 4. Go to the “multitrack” screen. Stop the song you just mixed. With the master at or near unity, press “2-Track USB” and press record. Go back to “Multitrack” and press play. When the recording is done, press stop on both multitrack and stop the “2-track usb” You have just made a shareable, 2 track recoding of the songs you just recorded, mixed down without a DAW and it’s all done inside of the UI24r. Hope this helped!!!! Subscribe and like.

How do you get that double view on each screen

That is Big D. It is supported with an HD monitor and a 4K 32”works best.

How do you connect the touchscreen monitor to the mixer?

HDMI and USB

[@AdamSpenceVC]

But then BigD doesn't work? So if you want to use BigD, then you need to connect the touch screen to an external device like a PC or Mac? Is that correct?

[@captinJerk]

@@StreamlineEntertainment how did you get BigD via the HDMI out on the UI24R?

@@captinJerk After I activated Big D on the Ui it automatically came out when I used the HDMI to my monitor/ PC. I didn’t have any problems. What issues are you running into?
