X32 Producer Training

A video of a training session on the X32 Producer for a client. This training session covers channel strip setup, bus routing, patching/mapping, DCAs, EQ technique, and briefly touches on other topics such as matrices and effects.
The session is conducted as a primer for someone who has never used any digital console, so extra attention is paid to terminology and workflow on the console.
Special thanks to Chuck Watson for the presentation.

You guys are legends. I have to use one of these as a one-off mixing for a band and this helped immensely.

[@Eliteguitarschool]

This is the best, most practical video I have seen on this product. 3 guys standing around chatting about how it works in a real world situation. Thank you so much!

[@shilohglasco-MACU]

Just accepted a worship pastor position at a new church and didn’t understand this board. This is so helpful! Thank you!

[@max-mo8vd]

THIS TUTORIAL REALLY WORKS I AM FROM PHILIPPINES! THIS MAN DESERVES A SUBSCRIPTION!

[@soundmatrx3432]

Perfect training, great pace, and very helpful! Thank you for this video!

[@Arielebayuk]

The best training by far. Thank you so much!!!

[@savealta]

When this comes in I will be ready now. GREAT TRAINING!

[@bacontrees]

I've been looking into buying this mixer....very knowledgeable trainer! Thanks for posting this - very useful!

[@sjostrandlars]

Thanks for a real good demonstration!

[@edharrington4603]

This was very helpful, thank you Brent.

[@Zenas521]

I just found out today that we are getting this board and It should be hear on Wednesday. Thank you for such a grate tutorial. 👍👍👍

[@randomglyn]

Great demonstration, thank you. With the latest firmware update you can also see 16 inputs across all the faders if you wish, for less page swapping whilst mixing

[@jakubtota]

Great training. Thanks for a huge help :)

[@dachautv]

The best video for this ever.

[@PaulBielatowicz]

This was so helpful. Thanks very much for posting.

[@MatthewPolack]

Thanks so much for this...we just bought one of these for our school...and were quite confused given previous experience with just analog traditional mixers. Your video answered a lot of questions we had...and also did well to steadily explain things...with real world examples. It makes me think all companies should actually produce videos like this as their 'manuals' because videos like these are far easier to follow. Having the people alongside asking new user questions was also very helpful. Great job to you all!

[@paleeese]

Thanks Matthew!!! I am the voice in this video. Brent asked me to do the training on his first X32 install since I was familiar with it and would allow him to video. I agree the people there to ask questions is a very important thing. I tried to do general trainings and although it helps, all it really did was convince people that what they really need is training at their facility. Best wishes for your school!!!

[@DJPMackin]

Awesome video, thanks!

[@appiahbright2165]

very good video so far

[@kotogray8335]

Thanks for the upload!

[@neilk575]

Great video, I’m just buying one now!!

[@JimMathis-MathisPhoto]

This is very helpful. Thanks.

[@woody6791]

When gaining mics, you should avoid to crank it up too much. If you want clear signal and not having problems later, you need to build a good foundation and that all start with good gain. You want to average at -18db. It's important to know that those are Peak meters, not RMS. So take your time to get even gain all across the board and everything will go smooth.

[@donaldfewell8908]

Thanks!

[@williamsonyekachi4251]

This was a very great training. Will ask if you could do a video of connecting the mics and speakers to the mixers; the position of connections

[@DJPMackin]

Would be great if you could also do a video for the EFFECTS features.

[@striphio]

Thx for video. Its really helpful. My question is, when i set monitoring mix on bus 1, i can't hear effects on it. How can i get channels that i want in monitor on bus 1 with internal effects like reverb and delay (bus 14 and 15) ?

[@fincaman2]

To start from scratch initialize the desk it takes seconds and you know you haven't missed anything. It doesn't wipe scenes so you keep your previous setups

[@paleeese]

Good words! Also could initialize and build a blank scene with your personal starting preferences. For instance, I like to get rid of the icons on the scribble strips so my old eyes can see the print larger.

[@3dcsheldon]

Great video. I did not see you demonstrate that if you press two bus select buttons on left side of the board (ex. 1-8 and 9-16) simultaneously, the board will show 1-8 on the first set of sliders and 9-16 on the second set of sliders. Also on some small analog boards that had additional 1/4 inch inputs, They were actually TRS 1/4 inputs and can be converted to XLR using an adapter. The line was also switchable between low and high impedance therefore allowing you to connect additional mics. Does the X32 Producer have this option?

[@lbrentevans]

It does, at least in the more recent firmware. At the time this video was made I do not believe the firmware had that option.

[@jaifarrell]

Could have used some of that low-cut on this video 😉

[@evanlterrell]

anyone know how to set up skype / phone on the x32 for podcast usage? please help.

[@oscarruiz6408]

Hello This video is great thanks. but I have a cuestion why my x32 producer when I saved an esene doesn't saved the main volume LR I hope somebody can help me thank you! !!

[@paleeese]

Hit "SETUP" button - Go to the "config" tab - uncheck the "Safe Main Levels" box

[@thepiggyassassin]

the mini version looks so weird compared to the full sized one

[@KAIVILI-FIJI]

Can anyone help me please .. Ive got an x32 compact mixer . Im using it with Abelton Live . Can i use the outputs channel 17-32 on my x32 ?. When i select channel output 32 in abelton ie i get no signal on the x32 mixer . im doing something wrong..

[@mrufino1]

KAIVILI I don't know if you figured this out yet, but set the input block for 17-24 to card 17-24, input block 25-32 to card 25-32, then in ableton assign channels to those outputs in ableton. I don't use ableton but in other daw when you select your sound card the x32 shows up as 32 in 32 out. By the way, Channel 17-24 doesn't have to have card 17-24, you can assign the input blocks any way you want. But my example was answering it the way you asked. Hopefully I made sense... One thing that is a little tricky with the card is the way it is labeled- outputs mean what you are sending TO the card outputs to go to your computer, but you can also set card inputs to board inputs, which is your ableton example (computer back to board). The x-live card has a mode that allows you to switch between recording routing and playback routing, so you can record all 32 channels to your computer, then have card 1-32 set as playback inputs and hear those back through the board.

[@georgechandrum]

Hey sir! Can I connect the Behringer S32 Digital snake box to this mixer?

[@lbrentevans]

George Chan the S32 works with all mixers I the X32 line, including the Producer.

10:00 - Configuración de Canal para AUX IN (Música)

[@fincaman2]

Comment at 5:25 you would use this mode to link a bus to a DCA

[@paleeese]

Not sure if this is a question but here goes just in case. Short answer, YES. You CAN assign and control any fader by assigning to a DCA group. Question; Why would you assign a bus master to a DCA? (unusual request) Answer; Convenience! If you need move control to a more convenient location, or need to fade multiple bus masters simultaneously like in broadcast and theatre applications. I see your comment was a year ago. You probably have the answer by now but thought it would be good for the benefit of others.

[@stmarksseattle]

hi i woulk kindly like to inquire how to hook up microphones

[@edwinguerra1900]

Can i send one bus into another bus?

[@paleeese]

Maybe. What exactly are you wanting to accomplish? it can most likely be done.

[@Thewanderer_378]

would be nice if the encoders were silver, not black.

[@paleeese]

Interesting thought

[@nicholaspeppas945]

You could take them off and re-paint them..

[@donaldweiselberg2150]

The problem I see is no place to label a channel. you have to remember where who and what are on what channel.
