Thanks @Raziel1990nerd for the kind comments!

Absolutely correct!

Thanks for the kind words, Julian. In Reaper Preferences, do you have ASIO set as the Audio System? I'm not a Mac user, but Behringer's site does appear to list an updater for the Mac version of X-USB. www.behringer.com/product.html?modelCode=0606-ABV - Look under the 'software' tab on the right of the page for 'X-USB updater Mac Version 10'. Also remember to have the mixer ON before loading any software. By default, any program that uses the X32 will load up looking for the device and its associated drivers, which may not be loaded if the X32 is off. I'm also seeing some people saying that the X-USB driver isn't required for Mac. I'm not well informed in the Mac space, so my recommendation is to download the Updater file anyway and install it. Aee what happens. Let me know how it goes!

I sold cymbal cleaners for 25 years. There’s nothing in them that isn’t in household products. Just about any mild acid will clean a metal surface. The only time you need to be careful is if the cymbal is coated in a brilliant finish - but that’s typically only done on cheaper models.

Thanks for watching!

Thanks, Chris!

Hi Casey. It can be a little confusing - especially for live musicians. The X32rack accommodates 32 inputs - 16 of which are XLR on the back, plus a few additional auxillary inputs. In other words, without the S16 add-on, you will only be able to plug 16 XLR based instruments into the X32, even though the software for the X32 can accommodate more. The card output/playback channels are (by default) controlled in groups of 8, however Behringer has since updated the firmware so that card output channels can now be controlled *individually* under a "User Out" menu. So, technically, it is possible to input 31 instruments, and just have one playback channel - in your case, a click - playing back through your X32 card, on channel 32. All of this stuff is obviously a lot easier to visualize and test if you own the X32 already, but if you're simply wondering whether the X32rack can accommodate channel by channel input/output and playback for live running of backing tracks etc, then the answer is "yes". Disclaimer! I have actually moved away from running backing tracks back through the X32 card. I now use Ableton Live, controlled by a separate laptop and interface, which outputs my tracks via XLR to the X32. The X32 treats the tracks like any other plugged-in instrument, but separating the playback system from the X32 entirely mitigates risk and lightens the load. Hope this helps!

@@Damo_Drummer okay so I would need to change the use out to the card not the user in right? Otherwise totally makes sense thank you for the info!

You're welcome!

You're most welcome!

Why thankyou! :)

Thanks, Matt! Are you running live tracks, yourself?

@@Damo_Drummerhey bro Is this possible with Logic Pro X ??

Very welcome!

Thank you for the kind words, and also for illustrating the advantages from the perspective of the sound engineer - Something musicians dont think enough about! You are absolutely correct about ambient mics. They are a must-have for my in-ear mixes, and in fact I BEGIN an in-ear mix with them, as its the crucial element that puts the musician back into the 'room'. Without them (and this is particularly true for newcomers to the in-ear ecosystem) one can feel 'cut-off' from the gig.

Great question! After some reading, the general concensus was that the Art S8 had a higher build quality, and better long-term reliability, but I think youd be okay with either if money is tight.

Thanks for the kind words!

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks for the positive feedback...Glad it made sense!

The transmitter would be plugged into any of the bus sends. Buses have their own mixer, completely separate to the main outs. On the X32 rack, the main outputs are actually busses 7 and 8

Is there such an option with entry level behringer mixers such as the 502 or the 802 ??

??

Thank you!

Happens all the time! I recommend keeping a towel in your kit and wiping your cymbals down as you pack them up

Glad it was helpful!

The backing tracks enter the x32rack as INPUTS. Like any other input on the mixer, it can then be sent to multiple outputs. On the X32 rack, the FoH outputs are generally outputs 7 and 8 by default. If for example, you have your backing tracks being sent to input channels 24-32, you’d need to raise the volume of those same channels on outputs 7 and 8. In that regard, the FoH outputs are no different to any of the other buss channels used for feeding IEMs, etc. Make sense?

Given some of the lectures Ive been in over the years, I'm not sure whether your comment was meant as a compliment or a criticism :D j/k

True words, I promise! :D

@@Damo_Drummer excellent video, and top-notch comedic value as well, thank you sir!

Hi George! Assuming youre talking about X32 rack and not the X32 desk? The X32 rack has 8 bus sends (outputs) and the S16 will provide an additional 8. Bus sends can actually be linked together, so sends 1 and 2 can either be two separate mono sends, or one linked stereo send. This is true for the other channels too. Two sends are used for the main outputs (By default these are sends 7 and 8 on the X32rack) but with 6 band members you could link the following way as an example, and each player could have their own unique mix for each stereo bus send: Bus 1/Bus2 - Stereo linked on the X32Rack, bandmember 1 Bus 3/Bus4 - Stereo linked on the X32Rack, bandmember 2 Bus 5/Bus6 - Stereo linked on the X32Rack, bandmember 3 Bus 7/Bus8 - Stereo linked on the X32Rack, bandmember 4 Bus 9/Bus10 - Stereo linked on the S16, bandmember 5 Bus 11/Bus12 - Stereo linked on the S16, bandmember 6 Bus 15/Bus16 - Stereo linked on the S16, Main outputs Hope this helps!

wow, thanks for this extensive response, you are a gentleman! @@Damo_Drummer

Welcome!@@GeorgeFalconer

That’s a huge difference!

Hi Jordan. The solution you propose already exists, but managing audio real-time over wifi has always been wrought with latency issues. That said, check out Audiofusion's IEM system - which attempts to do exactly what you're implying.

@@Damo_Drummer Cheers Damo. Really good video btw!

Thanks!

Thanks buddy!

You're welcome!

Thank you kindly!

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the reply! I’m curious… What specifically is covered at TAFE? Are you referring to the notation reading, or do you actually have to learn this song as part of the course?

@@Damo_Drummer G'day Damo, yes we learn notation. We are also incorporating technology into a live performance. Your video on IEM's were very useful.

Thanks for the sub

Hey there! Its not an easy answer without taking into consideration a bunch of factors. I mean you could go a full rig like I have, but its heavy, expensive, and can be time consuming to set up. If yours is an original band and only playing 45 mins sets once every few weeks, youd probably be better off with a set of earpieces and a body pack, then get the front of house engineer to provide you with your in ear mix. You wont have a lot of control that way, but it does take a lot of the burden of setup out of your hands - especially when theres quick changeovers between bands, and you're expected to get on and offstage in ten minutes!

Thanks for watching!

Hi Joe. Most of us use one output (mono) or two (stereo). Our keyboardist sometimes wants three because: 1) He needs a stereo mix, and 2) He sometimes runs a speaker onstage anyway, just for some extra clout 3) You know... keyboardists :D

Hey Dusty: Its a very broad question because it depends on a myriad of factors and requirements. If you're a solo singer/performer with no backing tracks, its possible you can get away with something like the behringer Xenyx 502, using the headphone port to hear yourself.

Thank you for responding so soon.Ya, it's just me singing at open mic nights at the local Grounds for Coffee. I mainly want to hear my guitar and my voice. What kind of mic am I going to need for this? I'm trying to put this all together on a fixed income.@@Damo_Drummer

Thank you so much for the kind words!

Welcome!

Thankls for watching, and for the kind words!
