X32 / M32 Overview | The Basics of This Sound Console

[@nomandate3968]

This is the first (of so many) X32 "introductions" that actually explains and builds on the basic operational areas with unambiguous clarity, free of the jargon and references that so many others leave hanging - and all in under 30 minutes. I'm so grateful.

[@AllamHouse]

Thanks for the encouragement. I’m glad you found it helpful.

[@mdoyleproductions9358]

I've had some time on this mixer for live stream broadcasts, fairly basic audio signals, but lots of routing involved. When I heard "this is how I explain it to my trainees..." I knew this would be the lesson I never had. Thanks very much for not only explaining things, but demonstrating practical uses for that feature. Most people that try and train either think everyone knows what they're talking about or they just don't know how to explain it properly. So, every point they make is general and ambiguous, like "you can put, you know, whatever you want here." But, no one knows what "whatever" is and why you would do this - so, no...we don't know. Love the approach to teaching and not just THAT you can, but WHY you can or should way of thinking about when navigating this board. As I mentioned, broadcasting involves a lot of routing and the big picture is really important to establish before you start to execute. Learned a lot here.

[@AllamHouse]

Thanks for the encouragement and feedback. I agree that many people either stay too ambiguous or go too far in depth. Let me know if you have other topics you are interested in learning about and I can either point you to other videos or make new ones.

[@TheFclef66]

From one Dave to another, thanks for posting! Journeyman musician recently promoted to Worship Leader trying to help my volunteers work our X32. Digital is almost as much a mystery to me as them. Thanks for step-by-step even a bassist can understand, lol!

[@AllamHouse]

I’m glad these tools are helpful... even for a bassist. Haha. My wife is a bassist as well so I got a good chuckle out of your comment.

[@tubeo94]

Hey I just wanna say. 6 months ago I got a job at a church and the guy told me they have a x32. I was a bedroom producer with zero experience in the real world audio application. This video was the first one that made me familiar with the board. Now I can work on this board and even process on my daw during service too. I just want to say thank you.

[@AllamHouse]

WOW, this is great feedback. Thanks so much for taking the time to leave this comment and offer the encouragement. Let me know if you have other questions along your journey.

[@ayubabarnabasliman8281]

The best explanation on the x32 I have come a crossed so far. Looking at using this and was looking out for great overview of the console and here we are. You are greatly appreciated.

[@AllamHouse]

Thanks for the encouragement. If you have questions once you get the console, feel free to post on a video… I try to respond to all of the comments.

You are a great Teacher. You have a way of making it easy. Most videos i watch are so confusing. Thanks for the good work

Wow, thanks for the encouragement. I'm glad you found the video helpful. Let me know if you have other questions.

[@StudioBonn]

The last few minutes are the most important to me, all before very interesting and worth, now I can research how to connect my external reverbs and compressors and so on... Your way to explain is slow enough and with excellent timed pauses so I can follow and understand the routing. What the hell, they have had the chance to make it more simple, but I think their ambition was to make it as complicated as possible - but - to be honest - flexible as possible... Than you for sharing 👍

[@AllamHouse]

I have a few videos on the channel about using different FX outside of the board (digital or analog). Here is a video for using analog outboard FX with the X32. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYLYiIGZaaiLf9U

[@christian_blass]

Thank you for this tutorial. It is a great overview. And the tip with the clicktrack is brilliant and can save time in troubleshouting why a signal does not go to stereo out.

[@AllamHouse]

I’m glad you found this. Idea helpful.

[@yalu2]

I guess it is nice that the X32 has that button to be sure if something needs to stay out of the LR mix, but you could jus as well keep the fader down (why set it to 0?) and add it to the monitor mixes (which are prefader) like you would do on any (analog) console.

[@boywomack]

I have to work on one of these for the first time this weekend and after 1 time watching this I feel fluent enough to not shit the bed! Killer stuff I might have to snag one of these my self

[@AllamHouse]

That’s awesome. Thanks for the encouragement and good luck on the mixing. Obviously, I have plenty of other videos on this console if you end up grabbing one. They really are an amazing tool for the price.

[@KaraokeUniverse]

I'll be working on this console tomorrow and haven't used it since more than 5 years. This video was very helpful and I think I would have been able to use it even if I had never used this console before. Thank you very much for this great tutorial!

[@AllamHouse]

Thanks for the encouragement. I hope the weekend went well. Let me know if you end up with other questions after spending time on the desk in a live event.

[@Lustige_Sprueche]

@@AllamHouse Thanks, everything went well. It was a festival with 8 Ukrainian artists so I had the chance to get to know many different things. Had to figure out how to assign effects and their settings like tap tempo to the buttons and channels and also had to do the routing for streaming audio via a matrix which might be covered in one of your other videos. Luckily I also had an engineer familiar with the board to help me setting it up but I feel it is quite self explanatory as well. As I will be working on Yamaha consoles and originally work in studios with SSL duality I guess I will forget everything I learned until I have to work on this console again. In this case I will definitely come back to your channel. Keep up the good work and take care! Greetings from Germany

[@allegrocode]

After starting to work a board that had already been set up but never explained beyond how to create a basic mix, I was left with some fundamental questions. This answered all of them perfectly. I'll be sure to refer this tutorial to those I train. Thank you!

[@chuckh5722]

Great tutorial. A good sound tech makes a huge difference in the overall mix and quality of sound. I have been playing drums for different churches during the past 20 years and I have worked with the best and worst sound techs for worship services. I know that a church can have some of the best equipment available but if you don't have someone who knows how to use it correctly the service could be a disaster as far as the music goes. My hat's off to all of you good sound techs out there, trust me, you are greatly appreciated! I have gone from a large church with one of the best sound techs I have met who uses two of these X32 boards with a very good worship team to a very small church with a sound tech/guitarist who thinks the only answer to a good mix is more gain. Ouch! Keep us in prayer as this is a small church that is redoing everything from the ground up and I want to help them in any way I can, one way would be the sound quality in worship. I believe your tutorials will help me do this. Thank you so much.

This was really good. It was slow enough and has no irritating music so I was able to go through it with my German friends and was able to stop and explain things step by step. Really nice. The only thing I did not understand or missed was how you route the desk outputs to the XLR out sockets. I am a bit confused between moving the output sliders and mixing to the Main vs allocating a slider to the XLR out.

[@DJRichardPowell]

Hi. Quite informative and useful. Thanks. I like the way you explain step by step. I only have the manual in front of me so some of the things are lost on me until I get in front of the X32. BTW, at 20:09, when you turn off the "click track" to main, couldn't we just *not* push the fader up on Input Channel Bank but still send it to the mix bus? Thanks again

[@AllamHouse]

If you are using a monitor that is Pre Fader, you can leave the fader down and just turn it up in the monitor send. If you are running a Post Fader monitor it will need to have the input fader up and removed from the Stereo LR Bus so that it will properly feed into your monitor.

Thanks for the encouragement. I like trying to make the 50,000 foot view more attainable before diving into the weeds of each button.

[@mineruavideo34]

As far as you know, the eight output faders can be configured as input faders to have 24 input faders at hand at the same time without having to change layers??? It would be useful for live. With the compact model it is possible by pushing 1-8 and 9-16 at the same time even if it does not appear in the manual.

[@AllamHouse]

Man I always enjoy learning new things like this. Thanks for the tip, it is helpful for sure.

[@123innovate]

This is a great primer and also a great way to review!

[@markafletcher2042]

Thank you; this was very, very helpful. Any info on the CAT5 connection that you can elaborate on?

[@AllamHouse]

Assuming you are talking about connecting to a digital stage box, Just make sure to use a proper shielded Cat5 cable and connect to either AES50a or AES50b. You would need to adjust your input and output settings according to what you have connected. In terms of the network connection on the back, that is designed for connecting to a standard network usually providing remote access to the console from the sound tech with a tablet or the band on stage with phones to mix their monitors.

[@aaronfox915]

Great video. Very helpful explanation and good visual of the pathway of the Fx channels. Do you have a video going over the basics of the Routing button? Would be helpful to have a better understanding of routing on the X32. Thanks!

Nice classes, God bless you 😍

[@MatthewStewartMusic]

This is really helpful! If you want to add effects to the mains (say a reverb to a vocal in the mains) would you just send the reverb to the vocal channel with sends on fader?

[@AllamHouse]

The short version is you select the BUS that relates to your desired FX rack, hit Sends on Fader and then build a mix to go into that specific FX Rack. This is similar to building a mix for any other BUS (like a monitor mix). Deselect the Sends on Fader and then, go to the AUX FX layer on the left and you can bring up the return (effected sound) and this will then be heard in your main mix. The longer version is housed in this video that walks through the different types of FX available on the X32 and how to implement them towards the later half of the video.

[@MatthewStewartMusic]

[@p1pMusiclover]

Great explanation! I got one question: I see that mix busses 1 to 4 have pre-faders selected. Do you need to set them to post- fader to get a sound out of the monitors?

[@AllamHouse]

You do not need to change this setting to get sound out. Running Pre-Fader or Post Fader is a choice depending on your venue and gear setup. This video here explains the difference between the pre/post fader discussion. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaPKan-Vorhgaqs

[@p1pMusiclover]

@@AllamHouse Thanks for the reply!

[@aaronfox915]

Great video. Thanks. Very helpful guide. Question about FX at the end of video. You have Fx Sends on the right of board. Fx return on the left of the board. Both have fader sliders. Which one do you adjust to hear more or less of the the Fx such as reverb in the house speakers?

[@AllamHouse]

You actually have three options (maybe 5 if we get technical). Assuming your gain structure on your inputs channels are set properly the basics are this... (1) set the MixBUS fader to unity (0) (2) set the FX return (left side) to unity (3) select the MixBUS and hit sends on fader to build the mix going into the bus using the instrument faders. As you increase the fader of the normal instrument into the bus, you will get more of the effect returned into your house mix. Once you have a mix built, you could either turn up the instrument fader that is sending to the Bus, you could turn up the overall bus fader to send more input into the effect this bringing more volume out, or you could just turn up the return side. At a basic level, all three will offer the same result. More advanced techniques would include using compression on the send or return side or the volume on the actual FX rack itself.

[@samcenor4067]

Is there somewhere we can access a full training like this?? Even if we have to pay. ? Will you consider a one-on-one training ?

[@loveaboveall2382]

Do the eq, compressor, etc... Local to only the busses once I'm working the bus mix is selected, or does it affect FOH mix as well?

[@AllamHouse]

Any changes made to the channel strip of an input channel will impact that channel everywhere it goes. If you are mixing a monitor, or FOH and make a change it will be across all mixes. That being said, you can choose a tap point for your input to be Pre-EQ when going to a BUS and this would take the signal before the channel strip and send it to that BUS. This might be helpful if you are sending the signal to an IEM and you want the raw signal going back to that BUS while allowing your channel strip to be heard in your main mix.

[@AllamHouse]

Give me a little more info about ‘the signal’. Do you have mics plugged directly into the back of the console? Are you using a digital stage box that connects across Cat5 cable using the AES50 ports? Are you talking about a signal that is coming out of the console like a house mix or live stream mix?

I'm not exactly sure what you are asking with this question, but this video here covers getting audio from the console into your DAW. THEN, once you build a mix in the DAW it walks you through sending that audio back to the console. Your situation is most likely different, but I'm sure you can grab some helpful tips to get you going in the right direction. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaG9oaaFlNFnh9U

[@rpiboy]

Question on the mix buses, when you send an input to the a Bus is it post fader? Can you configure the input bus send to be pre-fader? Thanks so much!

[@rpiboy]

so reading the full manual, it seems like Buses are Pre-fader and Groups are Post Fader, and then DCA groups are a shortcut for quickly managing total level of a mix of channels (as you explained in one of your videos). Do I have that right?

[@AllamHouse]

Yes, but with the update of firmware V4.0 and newer there are more features available so you do not have to pre-set your busses in the settings window anymore. You can now do it bus by bus which is a great benefit and you have the ability to determine different set points for buses as well... IE: Pre-EQ for a monitor bus to send the exact signal you get from an input back to their monitor instead of the EQ needed for FOH.

[@rpiboy]

@@AllamHouse is the manual updated with that kind of information? The manual doesn't seem to address that level of nuance. What's the best way to learn the details, watch all your videos? :-) FYI my church just got a compact to replace an aging analog board. We are also live streaming now (like everyone) and I also have an AM transmitter and outside speakers. I have a shot-gun mic for ambient sanctuary sound so I really need/want at least three unique mixes (FOH, Stream, External Speakers) plus occasionally a monitor wedge at FOH.

[@AllamHouse]

I doubt the manual has been updated. usually they put out "release notes" with each release, but nobody wants to read through all of those. In terms of your separate mixes, I would recommend have two main mixes... FOH and then the stream (which also can be sent through a matrix to the foyer or other external speakers). A wedge for the stage would need to be specific to what is needed to supplement any room and stage sound.

[@austinbannister6595]

Does anyone know an easy way of listening to multiple channels in my headphones plugged into the back of the board to hear how things sound isolated together without having to make a DCA for them??

[@AllamHouse]

Go into the Monitor Settings (click the view button in the monitor section) and make sure that "Exclusive Last" is NOT checked. This will allow you to solo multiple inputs at the same time to get the stacked headphone mix you are looking for.

[@austinbannister6595]

Okay sounds good that's probably what's going on ill try it on Sunday I used to do this with an analog board all the time@@AllamHouse

please i want to ask if i use matr....... and i choose pre or post what will happen ? what is the differnet bet......... them ? 2. now i have problem i have drum and guitar and the M32 there is no trs or ts input only xlr input so what i can do in this case ?

[@AllamHouse]

Here is a short, 1 min. Idea that explains the difference between a MixBUS and a Matrix. They each serve their own purpose and you just need to determine which option is the best for your setup and tech team. In terms of you input needs, you will want to use a DI Box for each instrument to convert the signal from a 1/4” to an XLR cable.

[@anthonjhnon1]

I'm new to this. When you say monitor, do you mean speaker?

[@AllamHouse]

If I’m saying monitor, this refers to either a floor wedge speaker that is aiming back at your band so they can hear certain things while playing… OR in-ear monitors which are individual mixes being sent into headphones for each band member. If I say PA (public address), FOH (front of house) or House Mix, then I am referring to the speakers that the audience is hearing in a live performance. I hope that helps.

What you will do if the Backing track its not getting in to the monitors?

[@AllamHouse]

Backing tracks need to be treated like any other instrument. Select the monitor send, hit sends on fader and then turn the fader up for yourself tracks. You will want to know if your monitor is setup as prefader (in most cases) vs post fader to make sure everything works well for your musicians.

Thanks for reaching out. I’m sorry your questions are not covered in this basic overview of the way the console is layer out. To get started all you need to do is: 1) Connect a mic to input 1 (XLR) on the back of the console. I recommend using an XLR cable so the mic can move around. 2) select channel 1 on the console 3) use the top-left know (Gain) to set the input level so your mic signal is reaching -10 at the loudest point of the signal being produced. 4) turn the channel 1 fader up towards unity 5) turn the master fader up as needed for the venue. By default the channel strip effects (EQ, Gate and Compressor) are turned off. No reverbs or outboard FX are setup. If your board is not currently at the default settings, you can go to Routing > Input (on the screen) and confirm that channels 1-8 are set to “local 1-8”

@@AllamHouse thanks for the info.

Which firmware are you on with your board? I am scared to update..

[@AllamHouse]

I am using version 4.02. Make sure you backup your scene by saving it to your console or to a thumb drive. Your current settings will be cleared out when you upgrade, but the scene can be immediately reloaded to get you right back where you were. also note, the IP address in Settings tab will need to be reset as well.

BEWARE NOTE: Behringer has a major problem with its products documentation manuals in them using proprietary PDF X software, just has a nice long email session with them and this is my findings response: I believe the problem is you are using a proprietary PDF X software and it is a password protected doc. Most all pdf docs will open in acrobat pro and have full edit, but yours does not and has a password protection on if. I do not use any other PDF creation software, do to them not having the functions that Adobe Acrobat has and does such as copy, scan and insert functions that all others do not have. SO whoever created this manual in PDF X software, password protected this and all your other PDF docs created by it. SO yes your downloads for manuals are password protected by its creators. In conclusion this is a major problem, so no one can copy text or pics to create quick reference user notes to learn on using behringer products.
