Rear Panel Flexibility
The X32 ships with the X-USB card in the
expansion slot, but by installing the X-DANTE
card in this slot, your mixer will interface
with Dante networks using either standard
100Mbit/s or Gigabit Network infrastructure
with DSCP-based QoS, with support for
mixed sample and bit rates coexisting on
the same network. The X-DANTE card utilizes
24-bit signal transmission with sampleaccurate synchronization and low latency,
ensuring the highest audio integrity. And
a secondary input allows you to set up a
seamless, redundant network.

Total Control
Full remote control of the X32 is possible using the integrated Ethernet switch. When the X-DANTE
card is connected to a computer, Audinate’s Dante Controller application gives you full control over
con guration and signal routing among your Dante-enabled devices. Also, replacing your X-USB
card doesn’t mean you have to give up your recording interface. Simply add Dante Virtual Soundcard
software to your PC or Mac to enable Ethernet-based recording and playback from your favorite
DAW or application.
Seamless Integration

protocol, ensuring reliable sound in large venues such as convention centers, churches or concert
halls using standard Ethernet switches (100MBs or 1 Gigabit Ethernet). This is an economical,
yet powerful, way to connect I/O options in the network, allowing your software to handle routing,
rather than physical wired links. The X-DANTE card - expanding connectivity options for X32 users
