I just want to say thank you for this video. My church just had one of these given to us by another church. Our old sound board was hit by a power surge and I am rocking to get this board going. You have given me a great start at understanding this board! Have a blessed night!
❤️
Really good video bro now I just need you to throw a gate on that breathing lol JK have a good day
this is probably my best video so far on this BX32 mixing board on how to use it. Probably more explicit the behringer guys that gave so called "Fundamentals", or what soever tutorials on how to use the x32. I am so impressed with the step-by-step explanation and it make sense so far how you connect its functionality. From Gain to EQ, Frequency to mix Bus to output, I have never got clearer understanding on mix bus before now. Thanks so much, Please in your next videos, work on your camera angles to be able to zoom in and out at different angles for more detail shots. Tenki Ya (From Sierra Leone)!!!
PLEASE do more training on the Behringer X32 .I am impressed with your teaching. Thank you. Hope to see another one.
Would've been better with another camera angle but great video regardless
If you need any changes to EQ during the gig, I recommend doing the opposite of a sound check and pulling the gain down on the frequency band and then moving it around. It’s not as easy to find the trouble frequencies, but it makes it less noticeable to the audience.
The 4 aux sends are useful as opposed to busses when you want to feed stuff to floor monitors or in ears, because you can turn up whatever instruments for that monitor. It was originally doe that way for that purpose. Busses are more useful for other rooms/feeds and such like you explained. Good to keep the two separate and avoid confusion esp. if someone is coming in to sub or work the boards.
Great video thanks for that. Im struggling a bit by how do i add or reduce basic bass mid and high like on a analog to a vocal singer? not a specific frequentie. Just in general bit less bass, drop more high, bit more mid...?
To drop lows / mids / highs, you would still use the eq for the channel. Instead of choosing a specific frequency, leave the Q wider so you are affecting a set of frequencies compared to using a tighter Q that would affect a single frequency. On digital mixers, there are not bass / mid / or treble knobs so it forces you to know a little more about frequencies than on an analog mixer!
You are so patient in delivery.. thank you.
Only half way through but EXCELLENT video. Only suggestion would be that I wish I could hear what the questions being asked were. It just sounded silent here.
The high pass filter can reduce the popping sound from somebody talking too closely (spitting into) a microphone. A woman's voice is generally in the higher frequencies and the filter can be set to a higher frequency. A man's voice is generally in the lower frequencies and the filter will probably need to be set lower to prevent removing too much bass from his voice. The type of high pass filter affects the slope of the filter and whether it is a gradual attenuation or a sharp attenuation at the cutoff frequency. On my A&H GLD112, I set the high pass filter for the microphones for 24dB cutoff of around 100 Hz - 135 Hz.
Great demo of the basics. A lot of x32 videos start at a more advanced point.
I just got this for my church. You may have answered this but is there a way to adjust the volume on the monitors for each individual channel? For example if my pianist needs to hear herself more on the monitor, is there a way I can turn up her monitor output only without turning up her slider?
Definitely! There are two ways to accomplish this.
Click select on the monitor bus send on the right side of the board then select the sends on fader button in the middle of the console. This will make it so all of the faders on the left of the board are controlling their send to that monitor output. Move the piano fader up until you get the level that she wants, then select the sends on fader button again to go back to normal.
The other option would be to click select on the piano channel on the left side of the console. Once you do that, all of the knobs at the top left of the board are active for that channel. You have 4 vertical knobs immediately to the left of the screen that are your bus sends for that channel. You can then adjust the proper know that lines up with that monitor output and you are good to go.
Thank you man I just bought the x32 , and the information in this video is excellent very informative.👍
Thanks for the training. Really impressive. Would like to know more on setting up vocal mic, sound, pitch, etc... Starting from scratch. What is level is best for vocal mic ex.( 0, -10, -20, +10, etc..) really could use the assistance with setting up mics for vocals from the beginning.
Hello, I'm French and my church use this mixer too for almost 4 years now. Since I am in the tech groups I try to learn more and today was the first one that the singers were actully livestream to Zoom.
I really think that your vids will help so thanks in advance !
DCA is Digitally Controlled Amplifiers. Not digitally controlled audio.
Hey!
What is the name of the frequency app??
Our church is getting this delivered tomorrow. Thank you so much for this video! God bless!
Did you get it delivered ? How is it going??
@@IslandDigital Yes and it is a great peace of equipment!
The gate is good when you have a guitar or other instrument with some hum on the line. Set the gate to cut the hum so it mutes the audio until the instrument is actually being played where the audio will be much greater than the amount of hum heard and therefore it will not be noticed. If a noisy guitar amp is not gated, when there is no music being played, a noticeable hum can be heard over the silence.
You seem to know EXACTLY what you're doing; frustrating that you switch buttons from on to off & vice versa without explaining what they do or why you change them. :(
Thank you! Excellent information.
Can you give a training video of Midas m 32 r ?
Your Teachings online are good But the practical part of the video can't be seen and understood clearly especially when someone following you doesn't have the digital mixer
I looked up a clear picture online and followed along.
How is your channel selected and active, but your fader is off and we can still hear you?
good job bro,
Thank you
works, thx so much
GAIN should be -18dbFS
This video halped me a lot to understand x32 mixer! Thanks Mr. Todd, God bless you!
Wow thanks for sharing your knowledge
good job bro can you send me the name of the app thank u
For Android it is called Mixing Station.
(18:56) 200 MHZ. AND 3K FOR ACOSTIC GUITAR . THIS FREQUENCY WILL BE HARD FOR A "SOUND GUY" TO GET A HANDLE ON.
This is the most explained video on X32. Could you please do a video that further explains EQ ING vocal, instrument [drums] and Fx.
This a great demo!
Running a huge FOH,There is no such thing as sweeping.By doing so.You're gonna fry the speakers.PA companies never liked engineers with those sorts of behaviour.Just by listening,One should know your frequency notes well 20hz-2000khz.B4 even getting behind the board.
Hi I am imran I can't get any signal on my monitor out please explain why
By monitor out do you mean one of the mixbus outputs that typically get used for monitors or the actual monitor outputs?
Well I set up my monitors signal on mix bus 1 n so on but can't get any signal on d output at d back of the mixer
If I solo my mix bus I can hear the signal but can't get it out at the back panel
First obvious question, is it muted? Otherwise, you will need to click on the Routing button next to the main screen, then tab over to the Outs 1-16 tab on the screen. Make sure that everything lines up for your outputs. If you have Analog Output 01 selected, make sure that the Output Signal is set to MixBus 01.
I finally get the signal out but only on bus 9 to 16 no signal from bus 1to 8 can u please tell me why
Very instructive, thanks ! I'm planning to get the compact version, but thomann seems to have removed it from their product line. Another available option would be the Alen & Heath Qu 16. What do you think of this mixer compared to the X32 ?
Abdellah Barrous I havent dealt with that console frim A&L but the X32 compact is still available from Behringer.
sons on fader? What?
stan ferguson - sends on fader.
Can you please do a video on the sewing up the amps and wiring?
What do you mean sewing up? Do you mean just how to connect power amps to the x32 outputs?
Terrible habits suggested in the first half: Gating snare and vocals. Boosting frequencies to find overtones. These are no-nos. Also when he was talking about ear training he sang a tone and called it 500 but it was much closer to 400. Worship engineers are the worst sinners.
Boosting a frequency temporarily is a great way for an untrained ear to be able to find the problem frequencies that they wouldn't normally be able to find and solve. Gating snare and vocals is common in all live sound environments. Helps eliminate cross talk between open microphones. Obviously you can get into trouble if you set the gate improperly, but otherwise a good tool.
I would respectfully suggest that cutting and sweeping is just as effective as boosting and less annoying. You should never gate snare because it cuts out the subtle grace notes and fills. It is way too dynamic an instrument to pick a level to chop it off. Same applies to vocals, there's no way to find the perfect level for a vocal that will not eventually lead to cutting out some syllables when they sing a subtle word or drift off mic, etc.
@@paulminorproductions But you are not forced to cut with the gate, you can select different ranges so I guess it's fine tuning
I really wish this comment was sarcastic but his further comments prove otherwise. Audiophiles are the worst lol.
