Question 1

What is the configuration of the expansion slot that the X32 ships with?  Is it USB able to connect multi-track to PC?  If so, how many channels?

Accepted Answer

X32 Consoles that are over about 12 months old (about July 2013) have an XUF card that has both a USB 2.0 and a Firewire 800 port. My console has that card, but I have since purchased two X32 Racks and their expansion card is the XUSB card and it only has a USB 2.0 port (something about Apple not supporting the Firewire chip set anymore). I have done a lot of recording with both the console and the racks and have not had any problems with either. The XUSB card will connect to your PC or Mac and do a full 32 IN and 32 OUT to your DAW such that the DAW can control the console with remote control. Basically you just need to make sure that the Head Amps for each track are sending a hot signal, but NOT CLIPPING. That will screw up a tracks recording faster than anything. You can use compressors in the DAW to recover from too weak a signal, but you can't do anything about a clipped signal. For DAW's, I have used Presonus Studio One, Tracktion64, Pro Tools, and Apple Logic Pro X. I usually capture the tracks from a live recording using Studio One, but always do my mix down and mastering with Apple Logic Pro X. I have recorded 32 tracks without any problem.

Question 2

How many years have you been having this unit for? Have you experienced any repairs?

Accepted Answer

We purchased our in December 2015 and so far have experienced no problems.

Question 3

Can we route/split 1 input (e.g. 1 mic input) into say 3 different inputs as if 3 mics all receiving the same audio source?

Accepted Answer

Physical inputs can be routed to multiple channels.  Routing is done after the pre-amp, so if you have it on 3 channel strips they all share the one pre-amp but all other channel settings are separate.  I use this for my pastor, one channel for singing and the other speaking, allows me to have different EQ settings and compression.
