Some famous outboard gear included is the Urei’s 1176, Teletronix LA-2A, Fairchild 670, and Pultec EQs. These plug-ins essentially “model” classic analog gear in a digital domain. In addition to the 16 we’re mentioning here, there are an addition 50+ more effects that would cost tens of thousands of dollars in hardware racks. 16 Awesome FX Plug-Ins Based on True Physical Modelingīehringer’s X32 Rack comes with some sick effects plug-ins. No more pointing at the monitor guy and mouthing to him that I can’t hear the kick drum. If I can’t hear the synthesizers or vocals well enough, I can easily adjust in between songs. Not only does this make soundcheck super smooth, it gives you the ultimate control to tweak your mix to your liking.Īll three of us have an iPad setup near us and change things on a dime.

iOS and Android Control From Stage or Anywhere in the Venueīehringer’s X32 Rack offers an amazing on-stage integration: the ability to control your mix via your iOS or Android device. The X32 Rack will only take up three rack spaces, so you will still have room for DI boxes, wireless boxes, Furman’s, playback systems, etc. For our purposes, the iPad app works great. You can access every function of the main board through the LCD interface. It has all the functionality despite the rack size. The rack unit of this mixer is the exact same as the regular X32 board, just with less knobs and buttons. The rack model is a 40-input digital rack mixer with 16 MIDAS preamps, built-in USB interface, and boasts iPad/iPhone control. The X32 Rack is part of the larger family of X32 digital consoles. Operation is simple there is a learning curve, but once you understand the rack, you’ll understand all X32 consoles. Sure, there’s other boards that will send you up into the tens of thousands, but we didn’t have that kind of budget. The X32 rack was perfect for us and what we needed.

The board we chose is the X32 Rack by Behringer. We settled on a digital mixing board that was compact, powerful, and easy to control without a monitor person. Not only is this an extremely tedious process, adding effects to a stage wedge send takes even more time.Īfter being frustrated with terribly long soundchecks and bad on-stage mixes, we decided we needed a change. You will also need the first S16 in Operational Mode 1 and the second S16 in Operational Mode 2, (other modes are available). Note that you will need to configure the S16s for external sync and the X32 for local sync, set this on the config tab of the SETUP menu. We would come in, load our gear in, setup, and run a quick soundcheck.ĭuring the check, we would have to point our fingers in the air, signaling the monitor engineer how much volume we wanted in our stage wedges for each instrument. This allows the X32 to control the S16 preamps remotely.
