Behringer X32 40-channel Digital Mixer

Description

Full Description

Ultimate sonic performance

Thanks to the MIDAS-designed mic preamps, precision digital converters and a sophisticated 40-bit floating-point DSP audio engine, X32 mixers reproduce your audio signals with every nuance intact. The preamp design eliminates typical imbalances of gain-setting stages, thereby improving the common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) and reducing second level harmonic distortion to an almost immeasurable level.

Enhanced workflow

The X32 Family completely redefines the expectations of power in a digital mixer. The brilliance of X32’s workflow is its simplicity and total lack of clutter; coupled with a fully interactive user interface that ensures immediate familiarity and instils confidence. Whether working on the control surface or remotely by PC/Mac/Linux computer or iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch, your experience will be fluid and natural.

Unlimited expandability

Each member of the X32 family comes loaded with all of the I/O and functionality you need, right out of the box, but it doesn’t end there. On-board multi-track audio connectivity delivers audio to your DAW. Integrated multi-channel digital audio interfaces connect to S16 remote stage boxes, the P16 Personal Monitor System or BEHRINGER’s iQ Networked Active Speakers. Native Ethernet control enables remote operation by computer, iPad or iPhone over a wired or wireless network, across the room, or across the planet!

The ideal experience

Whether you come from an analog mixing background, or are accustomed to using other digital consoles, your first experience with X32 has been engineered to be intuitive and straightforward. Tactile controls allow smooth adjustments to critical elements as the mix progresses while the TFT screen keeps you informed every step of the way. This integration of tactile controls, motorized faders and the array of LCD and TFT displays makes the X32 experience the premiere solution for Live Sound, Broadcast, Studio Recording and Post Production applications.
