X32 DIGITAL MIXER Getting Started
(EN) Getting Started
Mixer Operational Overview
Welcome to the X32 digital mixing console
QuickStart Guide! This document will give you
an overview of the basic operations of the mixer,
allowing you to get up and running quickly.
Whilereading through the information in this
document, we encourage you to experiment
with the console’s di erent screens and controls.
The console’s user interface was designed to be
extremely easy to navigate through and learn.
Inaddition to this Quick Start Guide, thereis
anEnglish user manual available as a PDF
downloadfrom behringer.com.
General user interface operation
The X32 user interface is divided into  ve majorsections:
(1) Channel Strip
(2) Input Channels
(3) Display and Monitoring
(4) Group/Bus/Main Channels
(5) Scenes/Assign/Mute Groups
View buttons rule
Throughout the top panel of the console,
youwill nd small buttons labeled View. Press these
buttons to immediately switch the console’s large
color display (known as the Main Display) to show
information related to the section whose View
button you have just pressed.
For example, if you are editing the equalizer
and feel like seeing a large display of the EQ
frequency response curve or corresponding EQ
parametervalue, simply press the adjacent View
button in the EQ section. If you need to check where
the talkback signal is being routed, simply press the
View button next to the Talk button and the main
display will show the details.
With the View button approach of the X32 console,
there is almost never a need to drill down through
multiple menu pages, since the View buttons will
always take you directly to the relevant screen.
Tip: The Setup/Global tab on the main display allows
preferences for the behavior of View and Select
buttons to be adjusted.
Customizing the X32 through the Utilities page
Press the Utility button, located to the right of
the main display, to bring up useful functions in a
context-sensitive” manner. For example:
When you are adjusting the equalizer of a
console channel, pressing the Utility button
will o er copying, pasting, loading or saving of
equalizersettings
Pressing the Utility button while holding a
channel select button depressed will present
a naming screen where you can customize the
channel’s appearance on both the main display as
well as the small channel display
On the Routing pages, pressing the Utility button
will o er loading or saving di erent presets of
routing scenarios
In the Scenes menu, pressing the Utility button
o ers copying, loading, saving or naming
consolescenes
Sometimes there is more to say
Some of the individual pages
on the main display contain
more adjustable parameters
than can be controlled by
the 6 rotary push encoders
located beneath it. In these
cases there is a small page
number indication, e.g. “1/2”. Simply press the Layer
Up/Down buttons to switch between layers.

Section 1: Channel Strip
The X32’s channel strip o ers dedicated controls for
the most important processing parameters of the
currently selected channel. To adjust controls for a
given channel strip, simply press the Select button
on the desired input or output channel.
Certain sections of the channel strip (such as the
low cut  lter, noise gate, EQ and compressor)
contain a respectively labeled button that can be
pressed to switch the speci c e ect on and o .
Thebutton illuminates to show the e ect is active,
and goes dark when bypassed.
Within the channel strip, the rotary control knobs
are surrounded by an amber LED collar that
indicates the parameter’s value. Whenever this
backlit knob is turned o , it indicates that this
speci c control/parameter is not available for the
selected channel type. For example, if an output
bus is currently selected, the LED collar and the
gainknob are turned o , because there is no input
gain to be controlled on an output bus.
The channel strip consists of the following
sub-sections:
Con g/Preamp
Gate, Dynamics
Equalizer
Bus Sends, Main Bus
Each of these subsections correspond to the
processing steps of the currently selected channel,
and they each have their own View button
that, when pressed, switches the Main Display
to a page displaying all related parameters for
thatsubsection.

Section 2: Input Channel Banks
You will  nd a select button on top of every
channel that is used to direct the control focus of
the user interface, including all channel related
parameters (channel strip and main display), tothat
channel. Please note that at any time, there is
exactly onechannel selected (either Input Ch 1-32,
Aux1-8, FXReturns 1L-4R, Mix Bus 1-16, Main LR/C,
orMatrix 1-6). DCA Groups (digitally controlled
ampli er) cannot be selected because they control
a number of assigned channels rather than one
speci c channel.
The Input Channels section of the console is
locatedon the left hand side, and o ers 16 separate
input channel strips. These 16 channel strips
represent three separate layers of inputs for the
console, including:
Input Channels 1-16
Input Channels 17-32
Auxiliary Inputs 1-6/USB playback/FX Returns
1L-4R
Press any of the correspondingly labeled layer
buttons on the left side of the console to switch the
input channel bank to any of the three layers listed
above. The button will illuminate, reminding you
which layer is active.
A fourth layer (Bus Masters) is also o ered,
allowingyou to adjust the levels of the 16 Mix Bus
Masters, which is useful when you wish to include
Bus Masters into DCA Group assignments.
On each fader strip you will  nd a motorized
100mm level fader, Mute and Solo buttons,
aGate indicator, an input level meter,
Compressorindicator, and the channel
selectbutton.
Each of the 16 input channels has an individual
(andcustomizable) color LCD screen that can
display a channel number, nickname, and even a
graphical channel icon. In the event that a channels
input source has been changed to an input signal
that di ers from the default setup, the LCD
displaywill also indicate the name of the actual
input source.

Soundcard
PC
Example: Channel 01 has the nickname Soundcard and is fed
from Aux input 5.
