Behringer 32-Channel - Manual (Page 45)

45 X32 DIGITAL MIXER Preliminary User Manual
7.2.5 Home Screen: EQ Tab
The EQ tab displays all aspects of the channel equalizer and also displays a
detailed visual graph of the current EQ curve. This tab can also be accessed
directly by pressing the “View” button in the top panel Equalizer section.
1. If the currently selected channel is an input, the channel equalizer contains
four bands, with various aspects of each band adjusted by encoders 2-5.
2. If the currently selected channel is a bus, the channel equalizer contains six
bands, with various aspects of each band adjusted by encoders 1-6.
3. On the equalizer screen, the various encoders are always tied to the various
equalizer bands, and the Layer up/down keys are used to toggle whether the
four/six encoders adjust:
• Gain
• Frequency
• Q (Bandwidth)
• Equalizer Mode
Page 1 (Gain)
1. Adjust the 1st encoder to set the frequency of the channel low-cut filter.
2. Tap the 1st encoder to toggle the low-cut filter in/out of the signal path.
3. Adjust the 2nd encoder to boost/cut the gain of the low band.
4. Adjust the 3rd encoder to boost/cut the gain of the low-mid band.
5. Adjust the 4th encoder to boost/cut the gain of the high-mid band.
6. Adjust the 5th encoder to boost/cut the gain of the high band.
7. Tap the 6th encoder to toggle the EQ in/out of the signal path.
Page 2 (Frequency)
1. Works as above, but the encoders now adjust the frequency center points for
the different EQ bands.
Page 3 (Q)
1. Works as above, but the encoders now adjust the Q (bandwidth) for the
different EQ bands. Use a narrow slope for working with a specific frequency,
or use a more broad slope for general tone shaping.
Page 4 (Mode)
1. Mode: Works as above, but the encoders now adjusts the EQ mode for each
EQ band. Choices include:
• Low Cut
• Low Shelf
• Parametric Equalizer
• VEQ
• High Shelf
• High Cut
7.2.6 Home Screen: Sends Tab
The sends tab displays and controls all aspects of the channel sends to the sixteen
mix buses. Compared to the dedicated top panel send controls, this screen
offers additional functions such as send muting and simultaneous metering of
the selected channel’s sixteen sends. This tab can also be accessed directly by
pressing the “View” button in the top panel sends section.
The sends tab contains the following parameters that can be adjusted using the
six rotary-push encoders:
Page 1
1. Adjust the 1st encoder to set the level for the first send of the currently
selected four-send group.
2. Tap the 1st encoder to mute the first send of the currently selected
four-send group.
3. Repeat process with the next three encoders for the other three sends in the
currently selected four-send group.
4. Adjust the 6th encoder to select which four sends to control with the screen
encoders, shifting focus two sends at a time.
5. Tap the 6th encoder to select which four sends to control with the screen
encoders, shifting focus four sends at a time.
Page 2
1. Adjust the 1st encoder to select where in the signal chain the send is
tapped from, for the first two sends of the currently focused four sends.
Options include:
• Pre-EQ
• Post-EQ
• Pre-Fader
• Post-Fader
• Sub-Group
2. Adjust the 3rd encoder to perform the same operation for the second two
sends of the currently focused four sends.
3. Adjust the 6th encoder to select which four sends to control with the screen
encoders, shifting focus two sends at a time.
4. Tap the 6th encoder to select which four sends to control with the screen
encoders, shifting focus four sends at a time.
7.2.7 Home Screen: Main Tab
The main tab displays and controls all aspects of the main bus assignments.
The main tab contains the following parameters that can be adjusted using the
six rotary-push encoders:
1. Adjust the 1st encoder to pan the selected channel within the main
stereo output.
2. Tap the 1st encoder to assign the selected channel to the main stereo output.
3. Adjust the 2nd encoder to adjust the level of the currently selected channel
within the mono (center) bus.
4. Tap the 2nd encoder to assign the selected channel to the mono output
signal path. Use this function when crafting an LCR mix as opposed to a
mono or stereo mix.
5. Tap the 5th encoder to solo/unsolo the currently selected channel.
6. Adjust the 6th encoder to set the fader level for the currently selected channel.
7. Tap the 6th encoder to mute/unmute the currently selected channel.
