Behringer X32 COMPACT Digital Mixer

Behringer X32 COMPACT Digital Mixer

The Behringer X32 Compact is a high-performance digital mixing console that packs the power and versatility of full-size flagship models into a more space-efficient, more affordable package — ideal for live sound, installations, houses of worship, theatres, rehearsal studios and even professional recording environments. With its 40 input channels, 25-bus architecture, 16 MIDAS-designed mic preamps, motorised faders, and ultra-flexible connectivity (USB, AES50, Ultranet, Ethernet), it strikes the perfect balance between portability and pro-level features. Whether you’re front-of-house mixing, routing multi-channel signals, or recording direct to your DAW, the X32 Compact delivers world-class audio quality and workflow flexibility.

Key Features

• 40-input channel capacity with 25 buses (including main LCR, mix buses and matrix buses) for extensive mixing flexibility.
• 16 programmable mic preamps designed in collaboration with MIDAS for superb sound quality with high dynamic range, low distortion and excellent common-mode rejection.
• 17 fully-automated 100mm motorised faders (16 channel faders + 1 master) plus scribble-strip LCDs for clear channel identification and instant mix recall.
• Built in “virtual FX rack” with 8 true-stereo/arbitrary channel-assignable effect engines (reverb, delay, modulation, dynamics) without requiring external outboard gear.
• High-resolution 7-inch daylight-viewable TFT colour display and dynamic channel LCDs for intuitive navigation and live control.
• USB and/or FireWire (depending on version) 32×32 channel audio interface for direct computer/DAW integration; remote-control via iPad/iPhone apps and Ethernet.
• Dual AES50 ports using KLARK TEKNIK SuperMAC networking for digital stage-box expansion (e.g., add multiple S16 boxes) and long-cable, low-latency I/O over Cat-5.
• Ultranet port for personal monitoring system integration (e.g., Behringer P16 series), enabling separate monitor mixes without extra console.
• Scene memory, mute groups, DCA groups, full routing flexibility, internal metering and talkback — excellent for complex live or install workflows.
• Road-ready and studio capable: the “Compact” size delivers the full X32 feature set in a smaller footprint, making it easier to deploy in tighter spaces without compromising performance.
