Midas M32R Live Digital Mixing Console

Professional live sound and studio recording digital mixing console designed for high-end performance, precision, and reliability. Featuring up to 40 simultaneous input channels, the unit includes 32 Midas PRO microphone preamplifiers, 25 phase-coherent mix buses, AES50 networking, and advanced DSP architecture for premium audio processing and routing flexibility.

The console offers 32 bi-directional channels of live recording/playback via dual SD/SDHC media (cards not included), with up to 3 hours of 32-channel PCM recording saved as uncompressed WAV files. Structural durability is ensured through an engineered chassis of carbon fibre, aluminium, and reinforced steel, while 40-bit floating point processing guarantees uncompromised audio quality and dynamic accuracy.

Equipped with 25 motorised Midas PRO faders, 8 DCA groups, 6 mute groups, and 8 dedicated DSP effects engines, the system supports advanced workflow control. A daylight-viewable 7-inch full-colour TFT display provides clear system feedback and navigation. Built-in 32 x 32 USB 2.0 audio interfacing allows DAW streaming, multi-track recording, and HUI/Mackie Control emulation for full studio integration.

Additional connectivity includes comprehensive XLR I/O, talkback, monitoring outputs, MIDI control, AES/EBU, dual AES50 ports, expansion card compatibility, and ULTRANET distribution. Wireless remote control is supported via optional Midas applications for iPad and iPhone. The power supply features auto-ranging global voltage compatibility for touring use.
