I just picked up the XR18 for corp and conference use. My primary goal was to get as many sub mixes so that I can get a series of mix-minus. It also will double as part of sound reinforcement for different events we have. The remote setup of this system keeps me from having to use long runs to a corner of a room. Watching your video presentations really shows just how much of a powerhouse this is. I am barely scraping the surface of the X18's capabilities. I can't wait to dig in further and utilize some of the advanced ducking, comps and gates to help keep things clean. Thanks for the video's. I'll be watching them all.

Great presentation! I'm really digging the X-Air line! Thinking about getting the XR12 or the XR16 for my band. We use REAPER as a click track source aswell as for midi-syncing our stuff. I'm wondering if its possible to feed the click via USB right from REAPER to the mixer. Does REAPER recognize the USB-port as output, or how do I make it work? Most optimal would be sending from the DAW to the X-Air mixer (running on the same PC) without connecting to the hardware unit via USB, but that's not possible I suppose ;)
@behringer8 жыл бұрын
+Heinabaumstamm You can certainly do this with Reaper, just specify which track contains the click track you want to send to your mixer, make sure that track is output routed properly within your DAW, and then Select a channel in your X AIR controller software / app that you want this track present in your mix. Setting your X AIR's USB channel can be done from the Input section of our control software.

Hey Phil; Thanks for another brilliant demo video. Would you use an XR18 as your main mixer, in a Cubase home-studio?

Hey JL B, sorry this is not Phil himself answering, but I have MR18 which is the Midas version of XR18 and use Cubase at home to record. It works great so far, however there will be a bit of a learning curve (watching the videos by Phil from Behringer) Other than that, it saves space for sure and maybe you could sell those analog mixer and sound cards for other gear :)

The Ultranet port is proprietary and for in-ear monitoring requires substantial additional investment. Since you have router connection capabilities, are there any apps that can stream OP to phones that could use headphones or Bluetooth to control a private mix ? Otherwise, why connect a good external router? Multiple controls? I want more !!
@behringer8 жыл бұрын
+Lyle Allen Connecting an external router makes the X AIR future-proof with regards to wireless capabilities. As the technology of Wireless routers improves so can the wireless connectivity of the X AIR Mixers. This also also makes X AIR capable of handling more control devices simultaneously hooked up the your mixer during shows and leaves the option open for more robust security settings. Our control software / apps only control the X AIR Mixers, no audio actually passes through the apps. To stream audio wirelessly via bluetooth or otherwise you would need an external bluetooth transmitter hooked up to one of the outputs of your X AIR Mixer.
