    Live Sound: Helix Native vs Helix Rack outboard?

    Hi team, TL;DR: anybody using Helix Native in a live performance setting? Within that, anybody done an A/B of the sound vs the Helix outboard units? Longer context: I occasionally play in a pretty tech-forward ampless setup where me and 2x guitarists all go wirelessly into Helix Rack units...

    Behringer / Midas Stage Boxes and Digital Mixers Discussion (SD8, SD16, M32C, XR18, X32 Rack, etc.)

    I have had Behringer mixers arrive new in box configured that way, just so you know you’re not crazy/alone. no idea about the logic, and drove me nuts first time it happened.

    Super easy open source video edit software?

    Your Windows 10 instance should come pre-loaded with Video Editor, the successor to Windows Movie Maker. If you really just need to splice two clips together it should work fine with no additional software needed. Otherwise, another +1 for da Vinci resolve.

    Bass-Only IEM from a DI

    I am fortunate enough to have a full IEM system, custom molds, etc, plus a dedicated monitor engineer for my “main” gig. however I occasionally “sub” (play at philanthropic or community fundraising events) where the setup can be a brutal mix of amateur and loud. In this setting I do exactly...

    IEM system for rehearsal and small gigs : what do we need?

    what’s your signal flow to be wireless from the P16? Stereo line back from the P16 to the rack with the transmitter? Or something different?

    External pedals with digital modeler

    How do these perceptions accumulate for you, or not? Ie, “several” milliseconds for each of: -into a wireless instrument transmitter (then out) -into a modeler (then out) -into analog pedals (then out) -into a digital mixer (then out) -into a wireless iem transmitter (then out) And on that last...

    Backbeat Club - For Those Who Silently Rumble

    I got a shipping notification email with a USPS tracking number today around 3pET. Made my down payment in Nov ‘21, paid the best in Jan ‘22. Really like my G1, and really feel like (at least on paper) all the things that made it not perfect have been addressed in the G2.

    Behringer / Midas Stage Boxes and Digital Mixers Discussion (SD8, SD16, M32C, XR18, X32 Rack, etc.)

    I own each of XR18, X32R, and M32C. I love them all, especially the M32C. It is my primary unit, doing a variant of what you describe using Dante. I do this instead of the Midas/Behringer stage boxes primarily because 1) cross-platform, 2) PoE (rather than having to power the stage boxes), 3)...

    x32 - use X32 computer across network in isolated room?

    You could use Dante for this if I’m understanding the ask. Put an X-Dante card in the X32, run a single Ethernet cable to your computer, and run Dante virtual sound card on the computer. set the card to route the channels/taps you want and away you go, mixing and monitoring on your computer
