[QUOTE="Chris Wadden, post: 66746, member: 2583"] re: X32 Discussion Hello again everybody! I wanted to first mention something about my last post. I had written a lot more text which ended up being lost because of a glitch in my browser. It happened right after I started mentioning a few issues I had with the board. The majority of the text was not about minor issues but things I loved about the board and how I was using it. I originally had only mentioned the headphone amp, and the chan 16 + 32 digital noise, which I ended up retyping back in. ANYHOO So Joe Sanborn immediately contacted me, as I expected (nice to say), and told me he would get me in contact with one of the other Behringer guys in my area. I actually already know John really really well and wasn't sure why I hadn't contacted him about it already. Joe said the noise from chan 16 and 32 is an easy fix. One thing I had mentioned in the text that got deleted, was that I probably would not have noticed the noise if I didn't read about it here. It is very very low level. I have to crank the gains to +60db to get a loud noise out of it. If the channel is at 0.db, it's barely noticeable compared to other channels. I wanted to share my latest Assign Setup, to get opinions on it and to help people who may be so new to digital desks, they may not be sure about a good way to set it up. The beauty is it will be different for everyone. So experiment!! For my "Zero Out" scene, which I use to start a new scene over with any band or production. It is setup to run four powered wedges on MixBus 1-4. Set A- [ATTACH=CONFIG]151581.vB5-legacyid=5080[/ATTACH] This is unchanged from the factory preset.
