X32 COMPACT DIGITAL MIXER User Manual
The “Sends on Faders” Function
The X32 COMPACT 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 specific 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 COMPACT.

Routing I/O
The X32 COMPACT console features 16 analog rear-panel XLR inputs with
microphone-preamps, as well as 8 rear-panel XLR Outputs and 6 TRS Aux Sends
and Returns. In addition, there are two AES50 ports, each featuring 48 input and
output channels, and a card slot for 32 channels of input and output to and from
a connected computer via USB 2.0.
Input Signals can be attached to the console’s internal audio processing engine in
blocks of 8 signals from any one of the aforementioned input sources
Note: All signal blocks patched to the audio processing will be connected to the
corresponding input channels automatically.
Local inputs 17-24 and 25-32 are listed with brackets, indicating that these are
not physically available on this device. Assigning these will obviously carry no
signal, but they can still be used when preparing shows for a full X32 console.
Cabling for all AES50 connections between X32 and S16 stageboxes:
•
Shielded CAT-5e cable, Ethercon terminated cable ends (recommended)
•
Maximum cable length 100 meters (330 feet)
