MIDAS The Golden Preamp
X32’s input topology – mic preamps, programmable gain controls and A/D stages were designed
by a dedicated engineering team at MIDAS, the company famous for their award-winning
mic preampli er designs.
Conceived as a single, cohesive system, and built around premium A/D converters, this proprietary
preamp design captures every nuance of your input signal – ensuring superb sonic performance.
Gain setting is fully programmable and covers a total range of 72 dB, with a precision resolution of
0.5 dB per step.
Accommodating a maximum input signal level of +23 dBu, X32 turns analog VRs and pad switches
into ancient history.
Backing the analog input section are audiophile-quality Cirrus Logic multi-channel A/D
converters, which boast a 114 dB dynamic range, ensuring impressively-low distortion and
low- noise per formance.
The MIDAS designed preampli er ensures signal integrity of the highest degree.
Audio Networking & Interfacing
X32 includes an array of control and networking capabilities as standard features. Dual-port AES50 digital networking supports up to 96 channels
of audio over shielded (STP) CAT5 cable, allowing remote stage boxes and sharing signals among several connected X32s. Onboard ULTRANET
provides a 16-channel digital mix direct to P16 Personal Monitor Mixers, without added hardware, cost or latency. Ethernet, USB 2.0, MIDI – all
standard features on X32.

Personal Monitoring System
Easy as a handshake. Plug the P16-M personal monitor mixer into X32’s ULTRANET port with a
shielded (STP) CAT5 cable, and let the performer dial in their ideal 16-channel personal monitor mix.
You can daisy-chain additional P16-M units, or use the P16-D ULTRANET distributor to set up a plug
and play monitor system that directly supplies up to 8 individual P16-M units with power and audio.
Cascading additional P16-D hubs can expand the system to provide 16-channel feeds to literally
hundreds of personal mixers.
