Driving a locked down house system can sometimes be a problem, because it might have been set to not overdrive when you are maxing the hottest desk on the market, but as long as you have access to the equipment I can't see there is a problem. Compared to the Presonus, the Presonus have 3dB hotter main outputs, but aux outs are 2dB below the X32. However, the Presonus meters to me looks like they change colour at a higher level than the X32, thus inviting to run at a higher nominal level, and this will of course be reflected in the outputs.
