Behringer expands on X32 with four new mixers

Behringer’s X32 Compact, X32 Producer, X32 Rack and X32 Core all share the flagship X32’s performance specifications, including a wealth of virtual effects, Midas-designed mic preamps and a wide variety of inputs and outputs.

All models include Klark Teknik-engineered AES50 ports, which can be connected to Behringer S16 digital snakes for expanded I/O regardless of mainframe size, and can be controlled using XControl for PC/Mac/Linux, XiControl optimised for iPad and XiQ for iPhone/iPod Touch.

Starting with the X32 Compact, this is a 40-input channel, 25-bus digital mixing console with 16 programmable Midas preamps and 17 motorised faders, and is designed for applications where space is limited or the application only requires 16 local mic inputs.

Meanwhile, the X32 Producer is a 40-input channel, 25-bus digital mixing console with 16 programmable Midas preamps, 17 motorised faders and a form factor that makes it particularly suited for professional and home project studios. A high-resolution, day-viewable 5-inch TFT screen is included, and remote mixing is made possible using an iPad or a laptop.

The 40-input channel, 25-bus X32 Rack mixer features 16 programmable Midas preamps and a high-resolution 5-inch day-viewable TFT. Equally at home in a studio rack, road-case or even a fixed installation, the X32 Rack delivers the mixing and effects power for demanding applications where PC/Mac/Linux computers, iPad or iPhone/iPod Touch control is desired.

Lastly, X32 Core is a 40-input channel, 25-bus digital rack mixer. I/O connectivity requires the addition of S16 digital snake boxes and accommodates up to 96 remote inputs.

Not stopping there, the manufacturer has also released four new USB audio interfaces that span the needs of professional engineers on the go, home project studios and musicians looking for an affordable yet high-performance input to their favourite recording software.

U-Phoria models include the UM2, built around the brand’s ultra-low-noise Xenyx mic preamps and the UM22, UMC202 and UMC204. All models include professional-grade +48 V Phantom Power for use with condenser microphones. 

The UMC202 (2x2) and UMC204 (2x4) employ high-precision 24-Bit/96kHz digital converters for the highest possible quality encoding and playback of analogue audio. Both models include dual mic/line/instrument inputs and an array of controls demanded in professional applications.
