Midas M32 Brochure & Specs

on concert tours in the 1970s, with Martin Audio
responsible for the loudspeaker cabinets, whilst
MIDAS manufactured the electronics.
The  rst MIDAS console to achieve major success
was the modular PR04 system, which came
about through Je Byers’ time on the road with
Supertramp on their 1974 “Crime of the Century”
tour. The PR series, named after the modules
available for the consoles, found fame with acts
including Billy Joel, Yes, The Beach Boys and on
Pink Floyd’s 1977 and 1979 world tours.

1980 saw MIDAS supplying the legendary Frank
Zappa with a custom PRO5 console. This innovative
console changed the way a generation of engineers
approached the art of mixing and opened new
creative possibilities, and led to the PR 40, generally
referred to as the “PRO40” becoming the console of
choice throughout the 1980’s.
MIDAS found new success at the start of the 1990’s
with the XL3 monitor console, which set the scene
for the greatest analogue console ever built—
the XL4.
