[QUOTE="Christian Boche, post: 51604, member: 1698"] Re: Uli Behringer of The Music Group Q&A Maybe someone should set up a dedicated X32 Thread, otherwise we are steadily “hi jacking„ this Q&A? Anyway, I will try to answer some of the X32 questions. I’m doing a review about the X32 for a German ProAudio magazine. This is why I do have one X32 here with me. By now there is no user manual available, so take my comments with a pinch of salt. @Luigi: We did extensive measurements of the X32 on our own, to sum it up: The X32 delivers professional results across the boad!
