question advanced routing on the Behringer X32
« on: September 18, 2019, 07:48:03 AM »

Hi Guys,

I have a routing question:

First I have to explain our setup:
We have a FOH X32 and we have a X32 Rack, together with a S16 at the stage.

On the rack:
1-16 = S16 1-16 over AES50A.
17-24 = Local 1-8
25-32 = channels from the X32 via AES50B.

X32:
1-8 = local 1-8
9-16 = The 17-24 from the rack
17-24 = S16 1-8(piggybagged through the Rack)
25-32 = S16 9-16(same).

The reason for the weird routing is as follows:
The rack and the S16 are used for IEM. But we don't always have a band each sunday.
Furthermore, on services where there is no band, the setup is only speakers, piano and some ambience for broadcast.
So on a sunday without band, sometimes people do the sound who don't have a great understanding of the setup, so we don't want them to have to work with the Rack and the S16. Therefore we have the signals for the normal service directly to the FOH x32. (channels 1-8).
When we have the band, we want to have the pastor on our IEM and we use the ambience mics for ambience in the IEM.
That's why our routing is so weird.

The problem is: The routing goes in groups of 8.
But I want to have 3 extra channels going from the FOH to the rack (a talkback from the Sound engineer and stereo media player).
But I can't seem to find a way to do it. I tried to route through the AUX remap, but on the Rack, only AES50B channels 1-8 are available.

Is there any way to route the 3 extra channels, without having to give up another 8 channels total in the generic routing tab?

Thnx for helping!

My little Genie Paul cast a spell and saw this in his tea leafs

Assign the stereo media player and talkback to the first 3 Aux Out on FOH Routing, Aux Out screen. Then assign that bank of 8 (Aux 1-6/M) to the AES50 first bank (has to be the first bank). Any other FOH outputs that were assigned to the first bank, shift over a bank.

Then on Rack, Routing Input (home) screen, assign the Aux In Remap to the AES50 B1-4 which will bring in the stereo media player to Aux 1/2 and talkback to Aux 3 channel strips. Don't forget to change the Routing, AES50 A output to the shifted AES50 B banks (that was done at FOH).

Those tealeafs are some great tealeafs if you ask me!!!!
And now that you tell me this, it all seems so simple!

Thanx a lot guys. Our soundtech will be extremely happy he will be able to communicate and tell us to turn those darned amps down!!! :)

Yeah, those Canucks can grow some powerful stuff in their garden nowadays;-)

Paul the Genie does routing in his sleep and he types much faster than me ;-)

There is a (rumored) v4 update forthcoming that will potentially remove the blocks-of-8 limitation so that routing may become more intuitive. Let’s keep our fingers crossed...
