Considering change from DL32r to X32 Rack

[Rick Scofield]

I mostly run sound for my cover band, rarely exceed 16 inputs but use 9 monitor mixes regularly.

With Mackie DL32r having been discontinued and no real expansion possibility for that line, I’m seriously considering using Behringer X32 Rack. 

My biggest hurdle will be learning the X32 software.  Mackie Master Fader really is the simplest to use and I’ve had over 10 years use between DL1608 and DL32r.

Anyone have tips or suggestions if you’ve been down a similar path?

Thanks,
Rick

Hi Rick,

Two local venues are still using DL32Rs, and I have one.

Can the 1/4" outputs on the X32Rack be assigned to monitor mixes?

I think learning another digital mixer can be useful, and expands what you are comfortable using with other systems.
 
I've been on various Allen and Heath, Behringer, Presonus, QSC, Roland, Soundcraft and Yamaha mixers.
The Mackie app is the fastest and easiest I've used.
That said, the Behr app works ok.

Thanks and good health,  Weogo
