[QUOTE="Mick Berg, post: 66220, member: 2512"] Using the X32 for Corporate Shows I had a quick look at the X32 console at Guitar Center, read the manual from cover to cover, (almost) and then played with X-Control. I'm very impressed with it at the price. But there are some things which would cause me a problem in the corporate environment. First, it seems you can't assign the oscillator to individual mix busses. I use two busses to send to the record decks, and at any time I will need to ship tone to them without affecting anything else. So the present situation doesn't work, unless I have misunderstood. Unfortunately the Monitor screen is not available in X-Control so I couldn't explore further. Second, I can't see how to assign my stereo left and right to matrix one and two respectively, to drive the main PA in stereo. Seems that it sends a mix of both both left and right to each matrix. I don't run any part of the PA directly from the stereo, it all goes to a matrix first. Am I missing something? Third, if I had a card in the console, could I assign the insert points of the input channels to the card so that I could insert sixteen channels of Dugan automixer? Or could the Dugan be connected via ADAT? Or better still, are there any thoughts of making a Dugan Card similar to that available for the Yamaha digitals? (amusingly this would no doubt cost more than the console!) For me, the X32 seems comparable to the Yamaha LS9-32. It is missing some of the LS9's features such as the Custom Fader Layer which is very useful, and the LS9 has more comprehensive routing. But you certainly can't compare the price!
