X32 DIGITAL MIXER Preliminary User Manual
On each fader strip you will find a motorized 100 mm level fader, Mute and Solo
buttons, a Gate indicator, an input level meter, Compressor indicator, and the
channel select button.
Each of the 16 input channels has an individual (and customizable) color LCD
screen that can display a channel number, nickname, and even a graphical
channel icon. In the event that a channel's input source has been changed to an
input signal that differs from the default setup, the LCD display will also indicate
the name of the actual input source.

Main Display Area
The main color display presents information about various sections of the
console. It can be switched to different screens using the console's View buttons,
as well as any of the 8 buttons on the right side of the display.
The top section of the main display permanently covers useful status information.
The top left corner shows the selected channel number, its nickname and the
selected icon. The next block shows the current scene number and name in
amber, as well as the next upcoming scene. The center section displays the
playback file name along with elapsed and remaining time and a recorder status
icon. The next block to the right has 4 segments to show the status of AES50
ports A and B, the Card slot and the audio clock synchronization source and
sample rate (top right). Small green square indicators show proper connectivity.
The right most block shows the console time that can be set under Setup/Config.
When working with any given screen, press the Page keys located on the display
bezel to switch to different screen pages.
Editing parameters or settings on each of the screens is done using the 6

Group/Bus Channel Banks
This section of the console offers eight channel strips, divided into the
VIEW
following layers:
• Eight DCA (digitally controlled amplifier) groups
• Mix Bus masters 1-8
• Mix Bus masters 9-16
• Matrix Outputs 1-6, and the main center bus
VIEW
This section also contains a main LR output fader, which is independent and
always available no matter which channel bank or layer is active.
When using the DCA Groups layer, the DCA Groups can be soloed and muted,
but they cannot be selected. To edit the DCA group names, icons and colors,
navigate to the Setup/DCA Groups page on the main display.
When using any of the output bus layers, note that the bottom LEDs on the
meters in this section illuminate when the respective bus is fed from pre-fader
sources of the selected channel.
