the protocol on our website, allowing developers
to design their own control software. Stay tuned to
behringer.com for details on the OSC protocol.

The X-USB card allows transmission of up to
32 channels to and from a connected computer.
Please download the X-USB drivers and
Quick Start Guide from behringer.com before
connecting the mixer to your computer.
When no update file is available on the USB drive,
or when it is corrupted, the update mode will remain
active, preventing the X32 from booting regularly.
Switch the console off and back on without holding
the USB View button to boot the console with the
existing firmware.
CAUTION: Please do not block the fan opening on the
bottom of the X32 COMPACT cabinet! The large slow-
turning fan is barely audible, but it is still working.
Specifically when mounting the X32 COMPACT in
a road case, please ensure there is sufficient space
underneath to allow for some airflow.

Funcionamiento de los botones View
En distintos puntos del panel superior de la consola
encontrará unos pequeños botones marcados
como View. Pulse estos botones para hacer que la
gran pantalla a color de la consola (conocida como
Pantalla principal) pase a mostrarle información
relacionada con la sección cuyo botón View acabe
de pulsar.
Por ejemplo, si está realizando una edición del
ecualizador y le interesa tener una imagen mayor de
la curva de respuesta de frecuencia del EQ o del valor
del parámetro EQ correspondiente, simplemente pulse
el botón View adyacente a la sección EQ. Si necesita
verificar dónde está siendo rutada la señal de
monitorización, simplemente pulse el botón View que
está cerca del mando Phones Level y los detalles del
ruteo aparecerán en la pantalla principal.
Con las opciones que le ofrece este botón View,
prácticamente se elimina la necesidad de ir pasando
por distintas páginas de menú, dado que los botones
View siempre le llevarán a la pantalla necesaria.
Consejo: La pestaña Setup/Global de la pantalla
principal le permite ajustar las preferencias de
comportamiento de los botones View y Select.
