X-Air-Edit does not implement the MIDI fader control that X32-Edit does, so you can’t just rely on X-Air-Edit. You have to use another app, like Mixing Station (see above).

No additional cords needed. Mixing Station and X-Air-Edit send all commands over Ethernet (or USB if hooked up).
Thanks. Seems rather unhelpful for it to not just plug/play with the X-series products, but it is "Behringer".

Well, damn! It seems Mixing Station will only work with Win 10. Both of my laptops have Win 7.

Won’t run at all on Win7? That’s unusual.
You could set up a Win10 VM or dual boot?

Haven't dl yet, thought I'd see if there were any other options. Will try it tonight or tomorrow when I have the time to play with it. I know, I know, I should dump win 7, but now is not a good time.

Don't feel too bad. I still have an install of XP just to be able to talk to my BSS FDS366s.

I have a source of Win 10 Pro OEM licenses in Hong Kong, about $15.  You download Win 10 from Micro$oft, put it on whatever media you need, make that media bootable, and install as an upgrade.  According to a couple of online sources a valid Win 7 key will authorize the new Win 10 install just like it did when M$ was offering the 'free upgrade' over a year ago.  If it doesn't, I know this place in Hong Kong, and I've purchased both Win 10 and M$ Office keys with no problems...

Just to be clear, though: using an OEM license of a Microsoft product on an existing computer is a violation of the software's licensing terms (buying a license from outside your region might be as well). Whether or not this matters to you is a personal decision.

You can run a Linux VM in VirtualBox to test things out.

I figure if it was geographically restricted the supplied key would not get activated by M$.  They have that power, ya know. ;)

Windows 10 is still free. No need to pay unless you need to change the desktop or a few other typically unimportant settings.
