X32 COMPACT DIGITAL MIXER User Manual
Rhythm Delay
The Rhythm Delay provides 4 stages of delay with independently adjustable gain
and rate, allowing unique syncopation to be created in the layered repeats.
TIME BASE sets the master delay time, which is also the delay time for the rst
stage. GAIN BASE sets the gain for the rst stage. SPREAD positions the rst delay
stage in the stereo eld. A global FEEDBACK, LO and HI CUT adjustment are also
available. FACTOR A, B and C adjust the delay rate relative to the global TIME BASE
setting for the 2nd, 3rd and 4th stages respectively. Each stage also has its own
GAIN adjustment. MONO activates a mono mix of both channels for the delay
input. X-FEED indicates that stereo cross-feedback of the delays is active.
Modulation Delay
Modulation Delay combines three of the most used time modulation e ects
into one easy-to-operate unit, featuring true-stereo delay with a lush chorus,
topped o with three reverb models to choose from.
The BALANCE knob adjusts ratio of delay to reverb. The processor chain can
operate as serial where one e ect ows into the next, or parallel where
each e ect is applied to the source signal independently. TIME, FEED (back),
LOW and HI CUT all a ect the delay. Modulation DEPTH and RATE are adjustable.
Three types of reverb are available – ambience, club and hall – with adjustable
DECAY and HI DAMP.
Dimensional Chorus
The Dimensional Chorus o ers the most user-friendly and classic sounds,
best described as "space" and "dimensional". The 4 MODE buttons can be
engaged individually or simultaneously for light chorus or very thick, exaggerated
modulation. Adjust the 1st encoder to select mono or stereo operation, and press
the encoder to engage or bypass the e ect.
Leisure Compressor
This model of a popular tube-based optical compressor provides natural and
e ortlessly musical compression, inspired by the Teletronix LA-2A. Simply adjust
the input GAIN and PEAK REDUCTION knob to dial in the amount of desired
compression, then adjust the OUTPUT GAIN knob for the desired output level.
The COMP setting will give a gentle compression ratio, whereas the LIMIT setting
results in a higher ratio.
Ultimo Compressor
The Ultimo Compressor is based on the Urei 1176LN Limiting Ampli er and
authentically captures the smooth character of the original class-A output stage
in its FET's legendary fast attack.
Start with the INPUT and OUTPUT knobs at the -24 position for unity gain and set
the ATTACK and RELEASE knobs fully counterclockwise. Select the compression
ratio, then raise the ATTACK knob to lightly compress the signal. Increase the ratio
for heavier compression and experiment with ATTACK, RELEASE and INPUT levels
to achieve your desired result. Compensate for overall level reduction with the
OUTPUT knob.
Fair Compressor
This model of a Fairchild 670 delivers some of the nest colorations in compressor
history. Two small trim VRs, BIAS and BALANCE, preset the control side chain
action, a 6-step knob determines the timing, and the 2 large INPUT GAIN
and THRESHOLD knobs adjust the levels. There are models available for dual,
stereo-linked, or mid/side operation.
Combinator
The Combinator emulates famous broadcasting and mastering compressors,
utilizing automatic parameter control that produces very e ective yet
"inaudible" results.
The MIX knob allows some of the source signal to pass through una ected.
ATTACK and RELEASE have dedicated controls, and an Auto Release function can
be engaged. Global X-OVER, RATIO, THRESH(old) and GAIN controls are available.
Engage the Spectral Balance Control (SBC) to allow automatic gain balancing
between the audio bands and its SPEED control to determine how aggressively
the e ect works. The meters can also display band reduction or the SBC gain
balance, and can display peak outputs. The THRESH(old) and GAIN can be
adjusted for each band independently.
