The S16 also has a pair of standard ADAT optical outputs for connecting ADAT-compatible external devices, but there are no such ports on the mixers themselves. Up to two S16 units can be connected together to provide 32 inputs and 16 returns over a single Cat 5e connection, and each mixer has two AES50 ports, so can accommodate up to four S16s each (though only 40 inputs can be active at a time). The 2U Behringer S16 digital snake is the obvious device to use with these mixers, each unit featuring 16 mic/line analogue ins and eight line-level analogue outs. If you're not familiar with the X32, it would be best to start out by reading those reviews, which are freely available on the Sound On Sound web site.įor applications where a conventional physical control surface is not required, there's now the option to choose from the X32 Rack or X32 Core, both of which incorporate the same 'engine' as the consoles but in a rackmount format and with less (or, in the case of the Core, almost no) analogue I/O.However, both can be expanded as required by connecting compatible devices to the Core's or Rack's AES50 digital-audio network connectors. We've also run a feature on its cousin, the X32 Compact ( /sos/nov13/articles/behringer-x32-compact.htm). Our Technical Editor Hugh Robjohns conducted an in-depth review of it back in SOS August 2012 ( /sos/aug12/articles/behringer-x32.htm), with Mike Crofts documenting its use in the field a month later.
If you don't need a large control surface, these two racks offer compact and affordable ways to harness Behringer's X32 mix engine.īehringer's X32 digital console has been a huge success since its launch in 2012.
