Precautions

Before installing, setting up or operating this equipment make sure you have read and fully understand all of this section and the
‘IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS’ at the front of this manual.

This equipment is supplied by a mains voltage that can cause electric shock injury!
The following must be observed in order to maintain safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) performance.

Safety warnings

Signal 0V is connected internally to the chassis.
To completely isolate this equipment from the AC mains, while observing full

safety precautions (see ‘Power’ on page xiii), switch o the isolator switch
(above the mains power sockets on rear of control centre) and then switch o
the mains at the three mains outlets. Unplug the three mains leads from the
rear of the control centre. For details of how to remove Volex locking type plug,
see ‘Power’ below.

To avoid electrical shock do not remove covers.

General precautions

In the event of ground loop problems, disconnect the signal screen at one end of
the connecting cables. Note that this can only be done when the equipment is
used within a balanced system.

Do not remove, hide or deface any warnings or cautions.

Power

The system power supplies contain LETHAL VOLTAGES greatly in excess of the
mains voltage and its rails can produce extremely large currents that could burn
out equipment and wiring if shorted.

The internal power supplies are of the switch mode type that automatically sense
the incoming mains voltage and will work where the nominal voltage is in the
range 100 VAC to 240 VAC.

Each mains inlet is to be sourced from its own separate wall-mounted mains
outlet socket.

Otherwise, their mains sources must be suitably distributed so as to meet local
safety regulations.

A Volex locking type plug is tted on each supplied mains cable, which plugs into
a mains IEC connector on the unit. When tted properly the Volex plug locks into
place, preventing it from working loose, or being inadvertently knocked loose or
pulled out. To t a Volex plug, insert it into the mains IEC connector and push it in
until it locks in place. Then, check to make sure it is locked in place. To remove it,
release its locking device and then pull it out. When tting or removing a Volex
plug, always hold the plug itself and never use the cable, as this may damage it.

During operation, a minimum of two of its three mains inlets must be connected
and supplying power.

When removing the equipment’s electric plugs from the outlets, always hold the
plug itself and not the cable. Pulling out the plug by the cable can damage it.

Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
Do not connect/disconnect a mains power connector to/from the M32 Control

Centre while power is being applied to it. Switch the power o rst.
Before switching the M32 Control Centre on or o, make sure that all monitor

loudspeaker power ampliers are turned o or muted.

Handling the equipment

Completely isolate the equipment electrically and disconnect all cables from the
equipment before moving it.

When lifting or moving the equipment, always take its size and weight into
consideration. Use suitable lifting equipment or transporting gear, or sucient
additional personnel.

Do not insert your ngers or hands in any gaps or openings on the equipment,
for example, vents.

Do not press or rub on the sensitive surface of the GUI screens.
If the glass of the GUI screen is broken, liquid crystals shouldn’t leak through the

break due to the surface tension of the thin layer and the type of construction of
the LCD panel. However, in the unlikely event that you do make contact with this
substance, wash it out with soap.

Installation

Before installing the equipment:
Make sure the equipment is correctly connected to the protective earth

conductor of the mains voltage supply of the system installation through the
mains leads

Power to the equipment must be via a fused spur(s)
Power plugs must be inserted in socket outlets provided with protective earth

contacts. The electrical supply at the socket outlets must provide appropriate
over-current protection

Both the mains supply and the quality of earthing must be adequate for
the equipment

Before connecting up the equipment, check that the mains power supply voltage
rating corresponds with the local mains power supply. The rating of the mains
power supply voltage is printed on the equipment.

Location

Ideally a cool area is preferred, away from power distribution equipment or other
potential sources of interference.

Do not install the equipment in places of poor ventilation.
Do not install this equipment in a location subjected to excessive heat, dust or

mechanical vibration. Allow for adequate ventilation around the equipment,
making sure that its fans and vents are not obstructed. Whenever possible,
keep the equipment out of direct sunlight.

Do not place the equipment in an unstable condition where it might accidentally
fall over.

Make sure that the mains voltage and fuse rating information of the equipment
will be visible after installation.

Ensure that all underside vents are left clear during operation.

11 DIGITAL RACK MIXER M32R User Manual

Audio connections

To ensure the correct and reliable operation of your equipment, only high quality,
balanced, screened, twisted pair audio cable should be used.

XLR connector shells should be of metal construction so that they provide a
screen when connec ted to the control centre and, where appropriate, they
should have Pin 1 connected to the cable screen.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions

Observe full electrostatic discharge
(ESD) — also known as ‘anti-static’— precautions when

carrying out procedures in this manual that are accompanied
by the ESD Susceptibility Symbol (shown above). This caution symbol shows
you that ESD damage may be caused to items unless proper ESD precautions are
taken, which include the following practices:

• Keep the work area free from plastic, vinyl or styrofoam

• Wear an anti-static wrist strap

• Discharge personal static before handling devices

• Ground the work surface

• Avoid touching ESD-sensitive devices.

Radio frequency interference—Class A device

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and,
if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.

Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at
his own expense.

that cannot be readily obtained from multiple retail outlets) supplied with this
equipment must be used with this equipment; do not use any alternatives as
they may not full the RF requirement.

Introduction

Welcome to the M32R Digital Console User manual! After years of intense
development, we are proud to oer a mixer that combines tremendous power
and exibility with a very user-friendly layout and intuitive workow that allows
you to get up and running right away.

The M32R combines a control surface with streamlined workow, extensive I/O
and signal processing into a compact desktop form factor. Employing award­winning Midas PRO Series microphone preampliers and the custom-designed
Midas PRO motorised faders that are rated for one million cycles, along with a
daylight-viewable TFT screen, the control surface is designed to allow immediate
access to critical functions with total and automatic recall of settings. Extensive
onboard I/O includes 40 A/D and 24 D/A Cirrus Logic converters, 96 bi-directional
channels over SuperMAC AES50, stereo AES/EBU out, 16 channels of ULTRANET
personal monitoring and 32 x 32 channels of recording over USB.

Abundant analogue connectivity is provided by 16 Midas PRO Series digitally­controllable microphone preamps, six line-level auxiliary inputs and outputs,
eight XLR outputs, stereo monitoring outs on XLR/TRS and dual phones outputs.
Each of the 16 microphone inputs can accept balanced or unbalanced mic- or
line-level signals, and include switchable phantom power, 72 dB gain range and
maximum +23 dBu level before clip. A separate external microphone input and
the internal talkback mic allow communication to various destinations.

Dual AES50 Ethernet jacks that employ Klark Teknik SuperMAC technology
contribute 96 x 96 signals to the total count of 168 x 168 accessible sources and
destinations. Motorised faders, recallable mic preamps, programmable routing
and the ability to save and recall entire scenes make set or programme changes
quick and simple. A top panel USB connector enables system data to be stored,
or a board mix to be recorded directly to external ash or hard drives.

The Input section is home to eight high-resolution 100 mm motorised faders,
providing control over channels 1-32, Aux inputs/USB playback/FX returns.
A separate section of eight motorised faders controls DCA groups 1-8, bus
masters 1-8 and 9-16, as well as matrices 1-6. The channel editing section
provides tangible controls for instant access to the selected channel’s gain,
dynamics, EQ and other functions.

A main ve inch-wide, high-contrast colour display provides information
for editing pertinent parameters of the ac tive function or eect. Relevant
parameters are quickly recalled to the display for editing via ‘VIEW’ buttons in
each subsection. Each channel also features a small, customisable LCD screen for
track name, number, colour and source graphic.

A virtual FX rack oers eight true-stereo (16 mono) multi-eects processors, with
over 60 eects models that eliminate the need for any additional outboard gear.
Four high-quality eects such as delay, chorus and reverb can run concurrently
with eight channels of 31-band graphic equalisation.

Transmit up to 32 channels of audio to and from a computer using the
Klark Teknik DN32 USB audio interface.

The M32R integrates seamlessly with other M32 consoles, the Midas DL16 digital
stagebox and the Behringer P-16 personal monitoring system for a complete live,
studio and installed sound solution.

Control the mixer from a distance with the free application for iPad* or with
editing and remote control software connected via Ethernet. The M32R’s ease of
use, intuitive workow, diverse feature set and integration with other equipment
make it an ideal centrepiece for installed and production sound in any setting.

Continue through this User Manual to learn all about the functionality that this
powerful mixer has to oer. We also recommend that you check midasconsoles.
com to make sure you have the latest rmware installed, as we release
frequent updates.

1.10.1 Operation

The MONITOR section shares a Main Display screen with the TALKBACK section.
On this screen, only the monitor tab contains functionality which relates to the
MONITOR section. This tab controls various console options relating to the solo
bus, as well as the console’s control room outputs. These options include various
solo settings, speaker dimming, speaker delay, and a selection of sources for the
control room output.

To adjust the settings on the monitor tab, perform the following steps:

1. Adjust the rst push encoder to change the gain of the monitor signal.
This digital stage occurs as a rst preliminary level control, before the
top panel’s analogue-based monitor level control. A display above the
push encoder shows the currently set gain value in dB.

• A multi-segment level meter is displayed on the Main Display to allow

for proper gain staging of the monitor signal.

2. Adjust the second push encoder to scroll through the various solo
methods available to the console when audio is routed to the solo bus.
Available options include:

• Exclusive (last): In this mode, pressing another SOLO button

disengages the previous solo

• Solo Follows Select: When this method is selected, the audio of the

currently selec ted channel will automatically be sent to the solo bus.
Since a user will often select a channel to adjust its dedicated DSP
controls, this method is useful because the audio of the channel will
now already be feeding he solo bus where it can be monitored with
headphones in a live sound environment

• Select Follows Solo: When this method is selected, any channel that is

soloed will automatically become the currently selected channel

• Ch Solo AFL: The channel and select button do not have any correlation

to each other. When a channel’s SOLO button is pressed, its audio is sent
to the solo bus in ‘after-fader-listen’ mode, reecting the current level
of the channel fader and any channel DSP that has been applied.
The default setting for input channels is o for ‘pre-fader-listen’.

• MixBus Solo AFL: Selecting this method will set the mix bus solo to

post-fader

• DCA Solo AFL: Selecting this method will set the DCA solo to post-fader

• Use DIM for PFL: Selecting this option will apply DIM to all PFL signals

• Use Master Fader: This allows the main fader/MUTE button to control

the solo/mon output.

3. Tap the second encoder to select and assign the currently chosen
solo option.

4. Turn the third encoder to adjust the amount of digital delay that is
applied to the control room signal path. The display on the screen will
show the current amount of delay in feet, metres and milliseconds.

5. Tap the third encoder to toggle the delay function on or o.

TIP: The delay function is useful for aligning the sound of audio monitored
through headphones, or speakers used at front-of-house position with audio
that is coming from the stage location.

By delaying the control room audio, it can be brought into alignment with
the slightly-delayed audio that has to travel from the stage to the front-of­house position.

6. Adjust the fourth encoder to set the amount of volume reduction
that occurs when the control room bus has its DIM function enabled.
The amount of volume reduction ranges from -40 dB to 0 dB
(no change).

7. Tap the fourth encoder to toggle the DIM function on or o.

8. Turn the f th encoder to adjust the volume trim for the source currently
feeding the control room bus, allowing it to be level matched with the
SOLO bus. The amount of trim can be adjusted from -20 dB to +20 dB.

9. Tap the fth encoder to toggle the control room between mono and
stereo operation. This is very useful in a studio context for checking how
a mix sounds when played back on a mono speaker such as a cock radio.

10. Adjust the sixth encoder to select what specic signal source to monitor
in the control room. Choices include:

• O (no source) in the control room, when no SOLO is active

• LR Bus

• LR + C/M

• LR PFL (Pre-Fade Listen)

• LR AFL (After-Fade Listen)

• Auxiliary returns 5/6

• Auxiliary returns 7/8 (USB Recorder).
