Capture Every Performance With 32x32 USB Recording

Never miss a magical live moment again thanks to the X32 Rack's 32x32-channel USB audio interface. Connect directly to your DAW and record up to 32 tracks of pristine audio from the console. You can even reintegrate backing tracks or click tracks into the live mix with ease. The flexibility of multitrack recording lets you relive and remix shows from the console. With such powerful recording capabilities, the X32 Rack pulls double duty as a high-end studio interface.

Mix Wirelessly From Anywhere in the Venue

Mix Wirelessly From Anywhere in the Venue  

One of the X32 Rack's standout features is its ability to be controlled wirelessly from a tablet or laptop. Using the XControl software for macOS and Windows, or the XiControl app for iOS, you can adjust virtually every parameter of the mixer remotely. Walk the room and tweak EQ, dial in effects settings or mute channels—all from the audience perspective. With multiple instances of XControl supported, bandmates can even mix collaboratively from different locations.  

Elevate Your Sound With World-Class FX Processing

The X32 Rack is loaded with eight selectable FX engines that give you 100 stunningly realistic effects to choose from. Lush studio reverbs like Vintage Room and Ambient Chorus immerse your mix in rich spaciousness. Specialized processing like the Waves-derived CombFilter and Precision Limiter add unique character. With so many high-quality effects onboard, you can craft professional, radio-ready sounds right from the console.  

Expand I/O Over AES50 for Massive Channel Counts

Expand I/O Over AES50 for Massive Channel Counts   

With its dual AES50 ports, the X32 Rack serves as the hub for a powerful networked audio system. Simply connect Behringer's digital stage boxes (sold separately) over Cat5e cable to add up to 48 more inputs and outputs to your rig. Run all audio, word clock and control data over a single lightweight cable for streamlined, cost-effective signal distribution across massive channel counts. The X32 Rack is ready to handle the most demanding tours and installations right out of the box. 

Whether you're a touring engineer, studio owner or permanent install technician, the Behringer X32 Rack puts elite digital mixing capabilities right at your fingertips. With its wealth of connectivity, effects processing and wireless control, it's an ultraflexible centerpiece for any professional audio application.
