I have never read any instructions for behringer x32. All my knowledge comes from the experience I got while using the mixer. However, if it weren't for your films, all this knowledge of mine would just be an unorganized mess. Your films are outstanding - starting with a nice ambience, ending with relevant information. I will certainly recommend this playlist to any newcomer who comes to our venue. These tutorials are hands down the best on youtube!

Using EQ in live performance depends on the type of mic, speaker, room ambiance, speaker placement, and number of people around... many factors. Not an easy job! This video may only be good in studio. In live, feedback happens for sure if not careful 😅

Very nice video on the x32 and mixing in general, thank you!

Drew - Thanks so much for helping out those of us who are not "professionals" but still have the responsibility to do this job! It would be helpful for us if you produced an updated version of your "Case Study" with the newest X32 updates. We are trying to set up some scenes for a complete live band much like you original effort. 🙂

Thanks for helping me understand on how to get vocals to sound so clean in a P&W mix. Please keep bringing more content like this on the Behringer X32 console, I really want to use/get one of these consoles, they just look really great to use haha

Another great video building on your previous ones. It’s good hearing the adjustments so I know how they can affect the sound. Give me more confidence to boost and not just cut

Thanks a lot Drew for your tutorials. I'm using a X32 Rack for my gigs. All your courses are very precious for me.👍🏿👍🏿

one other EQ-trick for cut through vocals: subtract/scoop out mid-high 'gaps' in instrument channels (keys, lead guitar) that compete in that range. gives room to the vocals vs. the band. EQ is not just the channel itself, but the whole context of the mix.

Thanks so much for this information about sound you make me feel like I am professional in sound. God blessing you

Hi Drew! This video was quite informative. You threw me a curveball though. Up front, you mentioned the vocals should punch through to the front of the presentation. To me, it sounded like the instruments were on top. Then the reveal. The vocals needed compression! Excellent video!
