Amazing that over a decade since this desk was released people are still making new tutorials

REALLY good job! Not only is this a great tutorial for this specific board, but also it's just a great audio engineering tutorial in general for someone who's less experienced—talking about all the basic settings you'd need to adjust!

I thought the world of digital mixers would be complicated but thanks for this video. Very well explained & simplified👍🙏

[burhanad-din]

This video really demystifies the X32 and makes it feel less intimidating to jump in and start learning, even for someone coming from an analog background. Thanks for the clear explanations and practical tips!

I use my X32 as the center of my studio, because it can be used as an excellent-quality 32-channel audio interface. The X32 is less expensive than a 32-channel audio interface, plus you get all the mixer, buses, FX and other features on top of it all.

What an outstanding job.
Very clear explanations, very easy to understand, perfect presentation.
Big thank you !!

Something that maybe needs to be addressed... While the input meter looked perfectly fine, the amount of gain dialed into that SM58 to get that level certainly looked excessive (and not just a little bit). Typically, if a user was to need that much gain on an SM58 (even when used for speaking), I'd be suggesting they look for a problem in the signal chain between source and console (like a bad mic or "one legged" mic cable).
Was there perhaps something else connected inline between the SM58 and the X32 (a padded splitter perhaps)?

In any case, the information presented was solid. The metering was fine as well. I'd just reinforce to follow the input meters for gain, and tell viewers that the amount gain that was applied to the SM58 in this video, to get that input level on the meters, was way higher than the gain knob would normally ride to achieve that input level on a vocal. And that is typically a sign of a problem or misapplied setting on an outboard device, etc. somewhere in the signal chain between mic and console.

X32 is such a wonderful console even after many years! I just sold ours for the WING. More routing options & more input channels

[relikvija]

I actually managed to connect the condenser mic and make it work with the help of this legend, pretty proud of myself:)

Thank you sir!

This is great. Sending it to all of our new / training sound volunteers.

[bassdude]

Thanks so much, after using analogue desks for years, my band has finally gone digital. Initially I was overwhelmed, but I feel much more confident now. Cheers.

[johnsakeiyia]

Awesome. Really visual, hands-on and practical. Makes it easy to follow along and learn practically.

[jacksonscofield]

Really enjoyed the demo, thanks Mitch and crew!

[kevinperry]

This looks like a really powerful console. Very professional. Great video, thanks 🤘

[tsarodavid]

How you gave the nuggets so apt. Thank you.

[roykilo]

thank ya very much, this is the Mixer I will be running this weekend and needed "the low down" on how it works.I am meeting up with another Tech tonight for a quick run through but I think I can hack my way through now...thanks again.

[iconwisdom]

We have an XR18 looking forward to upgrading to X32 Thank You for the video

[lexuslx]

thanks for that introduction on the X32.. I got a WING on order . we would be grateful to have the same walkthrough on that as well. thanks again :)

[youngstacks]

I have an exam on this tomorrow and you explained it so well, thank you!!

[tubaguy]

Nice walkthrough. I primarily use the X32Rack, but occasionally get to use the full surface.
