X32 COMPACT DIGITAL MIXER Getting Started
(EN) Getting Started
Section 3: Main Display Area
The main color display presents information about
various sections of the console. It can be switched to
dierent screens using the console’s View buttons,
as well as any of the 8 buttons on the right side of
the display.
The top section of the main display permanently
covers useful status information. The top left corner
shows the selected channel number, its nickname
and the selected icon. The next block shows the
current scene number and name in amber, as well
as the next upcoming scene. The center section
displays the playback le name along with elapsed
and remaining time and a recorder status icon.
Thenext block to the right has 4 segments to show
the status of AES50 ports A and B, the Card slot and
the audio clock synchronization source and sample
rate (topright). Small green square indicators show
proper connectivity. The right most block shows the
console time that can be set under Setup/Cong.
When working with any given screen, press the
Page keys located on the display bezel to switch to
dierent screen pages.
Section 4: Group/Bus Channel Banks
This section of the console oers eight channel
strips, divided into the following layers:
• Eight DCA (digitally controlled amplier) groups
• Mix Bus masters 1-8
• Mix Bus masters 9-16
• Matrix Outputs 1-6, and the main center bus
This section also contains a main LR output fader,
which is independent and always available no
matter which channel bank or layer is active.
When using the DCA Groups layer, the DCA Groups
can be soloed and muted, but they cannot be
selected. To edit the DCA group names, icons and
colors, navigate to the Setup/DCA Groups page
on the main display. DCA group names, icons and
color can also be edited by pressing the Utility and
Select button concurrently. Once the Setup/scribble
strip page is open you can directly select any other
channel for editing its layout in the same run.
When using any of the output bus layers, notethat
the bottom LEDs on the meters in this section
illuminate when the respective bus is fed from
pre-fader sources of the selected channel.
Section 5: Various Assignments (DCA groups,
mute groups, custom assignable controls)
• Assigning DCA Groups
Thanks to the two distinct fader groups (inputs on
the left, outputs on the right), the task of assigning
channels or buses to a virtual DCA Group is a breeze
on the X32 COMPACT. Simply hold the respective
DCA Group Select button on the right-hand side of
the console, whilepressing the Select buttons for
all the input channels that you wish to assign to said
DCA Group. You can also press the DCA Group Select
button in order to check which channels are already
assigned to it. Theassigned channel Select buttons
will light up.
• Assigning Mute Groups
The mute group assignment process is similar
to the above, but is designed with an additional
precaution in order to prevent accidental muting
of channels during a show. To assign input/
output channels to one of the six mute groups
(controlled by the buttons located to the right
of the Main LR fader) you need to rst switch on
the Mute Grp button next to the main display.
While holding the desired Mute Group button,
select the desired input and output channels,
which will now be assigned to the Mute Group.
When you are done with assignment, switcho
Mute Grp at the display, andthe 6 Mute Group
buttons will work asintended.
• Custom Assignable Controls:
The Assign section of the console oers three banks
of 8 buttons, allowing for freely customizable
access to 24 random functions on the X32 Compact.
To make a custom assignment:
• Press the View button in the Assign section to
edit the assignments
• Select the set of controls you wish to edit
(A, B or C)
• Select the control 1-8 you wish to assign
• Select the parameter you wish to control and
assign the function
Usually this is used to control a specic channel’s
parameter, like the lead vocalist’s reverb
on/o status.
The Jump-to-Page control is a special target type
that does not alter any audio parameter, but rather
brings you directly to any specied display page.
The “Sends on Faders” Function
The X32 console features a very useful function
thatcan be accessed by pressing the dedicated
Sends on Faders button, located between the
twofader sections.
The Sends on Faders function aids with level
setting of channels sent to any of the 16 Mix Buses.
Itis only for channels assigned to Mix Buses 1-16,
anddoes NOT work for DCA groups, main or matrix
buses. The Sends on Faders function works in
two convenient ways to cover the most obvious
situations in a live sound environment :
When preparing a monitor mix for a
specicmusician
• Select the monitor bus (1-8, 9-16) that feeds the
talent’s stage monitor
• Press the Sends on Faders button;
itwillilluminate
• Select one of the six input channel layers
• As long as the Sends on Faders is active, allfaders
in the input channels section (locatedon the left
side of the console) correspond to the send levels
to the selected (monitor) mix bus
When checking/editing where a selected
input signal is (to be) sent to
• Select the input channel in the left section
• Press the Sends on Faders button;
itwillilluminate
• Select either bus channel layer 1-8 or 9-16
• The bus faders (located on right side of the
console) now represent the send levels from the
selected input channel (located on the left side
of the console)
The option to use Sends on Faders in both ways,
selecting an input or an output channel, is a special
feature of the X32.
Editing parameters or settings on each of the screens
is done using the 6 associated push-encoders along
the bottom edge of the display.
• Whenever there is a continuous control or list entry,
you can turn the corresponding knob forediting,
which is indicated by various circularicons
• When there is a switch or toggle function
on one of these knobs, you will see a broad
rectangular button along the lower edge of the
eld. Pressing the encoder changes the on/o
state of the corresponding function. When the
rectangular button in the display is dark grey,
thecorresponding function is o/inactive; whenit
is amber, the function is on/active
