After revolutionizing the live-entertainment production workflow, digital mixing has given birth to the S32 Digital Stage Box. This ultra-affordable, high-performance device acts as a bridge between the onstage talent, the Front of House (FOH) console, and the rest of the world. The S32 is equipped with 32 Midas-designed remote-controllable mic preamps, and 16 balanced analog XLR returns at the stage end. All of this is connected via a single Cat 5e cable, capable of reaching up to 328 ft / 100 m. This innovative design is made possible by the AES50 SuperMAC technology, invented by Klark Teknik, a leader in high-end digital audio processing. Midas, a name synonymous with sound quality since the 1970s, has a long history of innovation and leadership in the world of audio mixing consoles. Their no-compromise approach to audio and build quality, particularly their award-winning Mic Preamps, are considered by industry experts as the industry's best sounding designs. The S32 proudly incorporates a Midas designed mic preamp for the ultimate in high-quality audio reproduction in both live and studio environments.The S32 offers massive connectivity. When used as part of a complete X32 system, two S32 Stage Boxes can be connected via the mixer's built-in dual AES50 ports. This provides connectivity for up to 64 remote mic/line inputs, 32 balanced outputs, and the POWERPLAY P-16 Personal Monitoring System. The S32 also features 2 optical ADAT outputs and two AES-3 (AES/EBU) stereo outputs for digitally connecting to outboard devices, such as PA system controllers. The S32 was designed with the flagship X32 Digital Mixing Console in mind, but it's also compatible with any mixing board with AES50 networking capability. The S32 and X32 CORE can be used to create a powerful combo for remote-controlled digital mixing in only 4U. The S32 also features ULTRANET technology, a revolutionary system that transmits up to 16 independent channels of 24-bit digital audio and control data via a single Cat 5e cable. This technology offers unparalleled ease of deployment, performance, and control for Behringer P16 Personal Monitoring Systems and Turbosound iQ Speaker Series.The S32 is a versatile 32 x 16 digital stage box solution with remote-controllable Midas-designed mic preamps, Klark Teknik's AES50 connectivity, and a wealth of other professional-grade features. It's built tough enough to withstand the rigors of the road, takes up only three rack spaces, and connects to FOH with a single, inexpensive Cat 5e cable. The S32 is the missing link between the stage and FOH, offering exceptional value and performance.
