[QUOTE="Ashirvad Zaiantchick, post: 65729, member: 2060"] X32 in Mongolia Our production company travels every year around the world offering free concerts. Our latest tour in Mongolia posed quite a logistic challenge. With no PA rental facilities in the country, we would need to bring as much equipment as we could from NY, as checked luggage. Up to now all the digital mixers we wanted to purchase were beyond our price range. The X32 seemed just perfect for our needs, and within our reach. We then decided to buy one. The only problem was getting it to Mongolia. My friend Komal then designed a custom hard foam flight case, which used 5 different kinds of foam glued with a special cement. It was then covered in a special fabric, and ended up looking like a strange suitcase. With the mixer inside, it weights only 57 pounds. To our surprise at the airport it was checked in without a problem on both ways, and we didn't even have to pay excess weight. The equipment arrived in Ulaan Baatar perfectly safe, and it enabled us to have 4 beautiful concerts in the cities of Erdenet, Darhan and Ulaan Baatar. We used a Mac running Logic for multitrack recording and XControl (under Parallels) for naming the channel strips and monitoring levels. An iPad with XiControl was used on the stage during sound checks by the monitor engineer. We didn't had any glitches or problems during the whole tour. Thank you Uli and crew for making all this possible!
