Description

The Midas M32C is not just a digital mixer; it's a revolution in a 1U rackmount form. Designed for both live sound and studio recording, this mixer captures the essence of the flagship M32 while allowing you to run sound in multiple remote locations effortlessly. With its dual AES50 networking, you can connect up to 96 inputs and 48 outputs over a single Cat 5 cable, making bulky analog snakes a relic of the past.

The M32C shines with its eight studio-grade effects engines, providing a powerful array of reverbs, delays, and dynamics that rival costly outboard gear. This mixer lets you control your sound remotely using M32-EDIT, M32-MIX, and M32-Q apps, giving you the flexibility to adjust settings from your computer or mobile device. Whether you're in the control room or moving through the venue, you have the power to mix and fine-tune every detail wirelessly.

Built to be future-ready, the M32C's open architecture supports future 96 kHz operation and offers expansion slots for additional audio interface cards. Its robust aluminum and steel construction ensures durability on the road, while its 32x32 USB audio interface offers seamless integration with your DAW for recording and playback.

Owner Insights

We analyzed real musician discussions from forums and Reddit to find what players love, question, and tweak about Midas M32C.

Features and functionality

  • The Midas M32C requires an external stage box like DL16 for preamps, connected via AES50, limiting local control options compared to X32 Rack.

    Source
  • The Monitor LR outputs on the M32C duplicate the Main LR mix and are not patchable in software, limiting their flexibility as outputs.

    Source
  • The Midas M32C can integrate with a Dante Virtual Soundcard to function as an audio interface without the USB card, offering a network-based connection option.

    Source
  • The Klark Teknik DN9630 can connect to the AES50 port for 48-channel USB recording or playback, though it does not support sample rate conversion.

    Source

Comparisons

  • The Allen & Heath CQ-18T lacks flexible FX options and matrix capabilities compared to M32C, affecting versatility for complex live setups.

    Source
  • The CQ-18T offers 96kHz multitrack recording, contrasting with Midas and Behringer models, making it appealing for projects emphasizing recording quality.

    Source

User experience

  • Owners of the M32C appreciate the compactness but note the lack of front-facing controls can be challenging for quick adjustments during live performances.

    Source
  • M32C lacks physical outputs; relying on stagebox outputs for monitoring and potential house feeds can maximize its capabilities.

    Source

Use cases and applications

  • The Allen & Heath CQ-18T suits horizontal rack setups better and is praised for ease of use in home studios, despite less flexibility than M32C.

    Source
  • Using Monitor LR as FOH output is feasible for simple setups, but caution when soloing is advised as it could interfere with the PA sound.

    Source
  • The M32C is valued for its compactness in creating a portable multimedia rig capable of multitrack recording and mixing IEMs for performers via phone control.

    Source

Software and compatibility

  • With the M32C, the Dante expansion card can be used for 32-track recording and routing, though it requires compatible devices at the venue.

    Source
  • The M32C's audio engine is limited to 48kHz sample rate, even when interfacing with higher sample rate equipment such as RME, Ferrofish, or Dante networks.

    Source
  • Users exploring a 96kHz recording setup with the M32C suggest using a Klark Teknik DN9650 or DN9652 for sample rate conversion in a Dante network environment.

    Source
  • Using the M32C in a Dante network with mixed sample rates may require additional equipment for sample rate conversion to ensure compatibility with other devices.

    Source

Mods and upgrades

  • To expand outputs without extra hardware, Audinate Ethernet to XLR adapters can be paired with the Dante card for additional routing solutions.
