T
he PreSonus
StudioLive
®
is a 32-channel (32x4x2) digital
mixer that is designed for live events,
live and studio recording, and corporate,
institutional, and other installations.

PreSonus Active Integration

PreSonus Active Integration products
combine advanced DSP processing
and networkability. In the StudioLive
32.4.2AI, this is accomplished with the
Texas Instruments OMAP-L138 proces-
sor, a 32-bit, up to 96 kHz processor
ar amp
bass/d.i.
that operates at 456 MHz and features
integrated USB 2.0 and 100 Mb Ether-
net connections.
AI products can be directly, wirelessly
remote controlled by iOS devices and
OS X and Windows computers when
connected to the same wireless router
network. The StudioLive 32.4.2AI's pro-
cessor runs a Linux kernel that allows
support for the included USB wireless
module and enables the included Ether-
net connection to connect directly to a
standard LAN network.
The speed of the DSP also allows for
extensive dynamics and effects process-
ing. The 32.4.2AI is capable of running
54 highpass filters, 60 noise gates, 60
compressors, 60 4-band parametric
EQs, 60 limiters, 16 graphic EQs, 2
reverbs, and 2 delays simultaneously.

Channel Input Features

Each channel features an XLR mic
input and high-headroom Class A XMAX
mic preamp, individually switched 48V
phantom power, ¼" balanced line input,
and insert point. Channel, subgroup, and
main levels are set with 100 mm faders.

buses, 4 subgroups, a talkback section

Networking and Communications

recording/playback interface and has
two FireWire S800 (IEEE 1394b) ports.
In addition to providing computer con-
nectivity, the ports permit pass-through
for connecting a hard drive.
