[QUOTE="Chris Nixon, post: 58189, member: 1947"] re: X32 Discussion Firstly Christian, thank you for spending so much time answering everything here. Most questions I had have been answered by reading through this thread. I understand that for the input patch the inputs must be chosen in blocks of 8 but that after that they can be assigned to any fader you want. To confirm, I could have 8 inputs from the XLR's on the back of the desk, 8 inputs from a stage-right S16 and 16 inputs from a stage-left S16? These 32 inputs can then all be in any order I want on the faders? I'm sure this is correct but just checking. My questions are about the output patch. Two S16s will have a total of 16 outputs, and the X32 has 16 mix buses. If I set the first S16 to mixbus out 1-8 and the second S16 to mixbus out 9-16 can I then freely patch mix buses to outputs? For example, If I have two monitor wedges on the left side of the stage and two on the right. I would want the stage left mixes to come from the stage left S16 and the stage right mixes to come from the stage right S16 (to save on messy cable runs). I would also want to have my 4 monitor mix bus faders beside each other on the X32 eg. Mix buses 1-4. Having mix buses 1 and 2 on the first S16 output 1 and 2 would be easy, but could I put mix buses 3 and 4 on the second S16 somehow? I understand I could accomplish this by setting both S16s to output 1-8, but I then only have 8 outputs to stage. This would be OK for almost all situations but it would be nice to freely patch mix buses to physical outputs. Can I use the mix bus outputs on the back of the X32 while also using the S16s for the same outputs? Say I am doing 6 monitor wedges on mix buses 1-6 and a stereo aux to a camera on mix buses 7/8. Only 8 mix buses total so both of the S16s can be set to mix outputs 1-8. I would want to connect the 6 six monitor wedges to mix buses 1-6 from the S16s on stage and I would want to connect the camera to outputs 7/8 at FOH. What I am asking is can I set [U]both[/U] of the S16s [U]AND[/U] the X32 to mix bus outputs 1-8 all at the same time? If I use a pair of mix buses as subgroup will the outputs of the subgroup automatically appear on the S16 outputs? If so, can this be disabled/unassigned? Thanks for your time, the last question isn't really important for me but just something I was wondering. Chris :)~:-)~:smile: [/QUOTE]
