#BEHRINGER X32 USB CARD PROBLEM UPDATE#
I backed up my show files, in case the update might wipe the console’s memory, but this did not occur. After sound check, I loaded the file and, within a few minutes, was running the latest firmware. I downloaded the file to my smart phone, transferred it to my laptop and copied it to a flash drive. This arrived when I was out doing a show with the X32 and had no Internet access. In 48 hours, I received a firmware update, with interface and metering tweaks. DiNicola sent the setup file to the team in Germany to work out some preset concepts for an easier “switch to monitor mode” option. I could make it work to some extent, but once DiNicola went through section by section, we were confident in our console layout. The simple labeling of options within the GUI interface let me “follow the breadcrumbs” to my desired setup configuration. Without the manual, hashing out many of the setup functions on the fly was kinda tough, but after understanding the options, setup was smooth sailing.

My second hope for the X32 was an easy way to flip into full monitor console mode. The functionality and flexibility the X32 offers for console control and networking is astounding for the price and allows different uses in a variety of applications. The first was regarding the I/O options of the included rear-panel card, which is loaded with the USB, FireWire and network ports. After swapping inputs and sends from my house console to the X32, I made a 15-minute call to get a crash course on operating the console I had just unpacked, and we were ready to go.Ī few days later, Behringer’s John DiNicola came by to answer any questions I had after working the X32 on a show. I should mention the X32 arrived a couple hours before the show, while the band was setting up, which, of course, made me want to plug the console in and see exactly how well Behringer did with the layout and interface design.

With no manual, the first show was a trial and error fly-by. Fortunately, a standard IEC power cable worked fine.

The mixer arrived without a manual (still being finalized) and a Europlug AC cord. I set the stage for the evening’s show the night before, so I only had to wait for the X32 to be delivered on day-of, so I could plug-and-play and run the show… hopefully. I received the review unit two days after the first X32s arrived in the U.S. I tip my hat to the Behringer group for creating the board’s clean, feature-packed physical layout and intuitive onboard GUI. Doing short recordings made the issue go away for now but that won't be an acceptable solution for all shows.A potential game-changer for the industry, Behringer’s X32 digital console features 32 input channels (32 mic/line preamps), 16 XLR output buses (plus stereo XLR/TRS outs), multichannel digital I/O (AES50 Cat-5, FireWire, USB), 4-band parametric EQ and six aux sends on all inputs and eight onboard stereo multi-effects processors. It locked up twice before I started just recording a few songs at a time. Can't remember for sure but feel like it was locked up with that screen open (wheels would stop turning as well on screen) I'm not sure but it might have only locked up when I left the recorder window open. The iPad app would also stop responding visually at least when the console locked up This is a 16GB flashdrive (Patriot brand) I have done a successful recording (about 1.5hr) with this latest firmware, just a different flash drive I have used this flash drive before, though I'm not sure that I've used it with this firmware yet I don't remember 100% but I'm pretty sure the recordings are actually still there. Unplug the flash drive and it was all back to normal.
Audio passed without problem and in actuality I think I still had some control of parameters but the screen, motors and all buttons would stop responding visually. While using the USB drive recorder (latest firmware) after an unspecified and slightly random amount of time (more than 15 minutes in) I would lose control of the console. Did run into a bug the other night though. I have been using my X32 at least a few nights a week since September and it has been rock solid for the most part.
