Added WiFi and Bluetooth to create a reliable tablet controlled mixer for outdoor events.

We have moved some of our events outdoors and did not wish to drag a full analog sound reinforcement system outside every week. Since we have an existing indoor Presonus fixed installation, this rack mounted unit was a good match for us. We are combing this mixer with a JBL Eon One as a center "Speaker as Monitor" connected to AUX 1.Although there are racked mounted mixers available with built in WiFi, users complain of poor WiFi connectivity or poor mixer dependability. We racked mounted this unit along with a Dual Band WIFI router and a power strip into an SKB 4u Flyer rolling case. We connected a small bluetooth receiver to the RCA inputs in the back of the unit (Channels 23 and 24). We can stream background music from an iPhone over bluetooth before and after events. WiFi connectivity has been good and "tablet battery anxiety" can be alleviated by carrying a backup external battery pack. Setup properly, using line output, this mixer is very quiet with excellent preamps.We are running subgroups for vocals and instruments. We have programmed in multiple mute groups including: speakers only, vocals and instruments only, FX only, complementing the existing mute all group. It is possible to keep the mute groups available above the channel sliders by using the quick view. This allows us to say, mute the effects when a vocalist needs to talk. It is important to select Device Mode --> Mixer --> Link Aux Mutes --> Main Mute Auxes if you want to link the Main channel mutes to Aux 1 (Our center channel). You can create DCA filter groups on the fly to maximize the use of the available real estate on your mobile tablet, by filtering out any channels not currently in use.The Universal Control software did work on a Windows Surface Tablet, a Mac Portable Computer and an Apple iPad. If you loose connectivity, the mixer continues to function. When you save a scene, the scene is saved directly onto the 24R. To use a Mac, I had to update the 24R firmware connecting to a Mac over USB while the Mac computer was simultaneously connected to the Internet over WiFi. Finally, it is possible to use this 24R rack unit as a stage box and control it with a PreSonus 32SC board over Ethernet.So are there negatives to using a tablet controlled mixer over a FOH console? Yes. First, it only makes sense that an AC powered, ethernet connected FOH console mixer with physical sliders is probably going to be more reliable than a battery powered WiFi connected tablet controlled mixer. Second, there is no actual audio signal being transferred to the tablet, so listening to a single channel using the solo button is not possible. Third, there is no audio being sent from the tablet to the mixer, so there is no built in talk back function from the tablet.For portable sound reinforcement, the primary advantages are simplicity and safety in setup and takedown since there is no need for a snake: all mic and instrument inputs go directly to the on stage rack mounted mixer, eliminating one trip hazard.

This is the stuff...

I love this piece of equipment! It put into one deep rack space an entire mixing board that took up external space to my rack.

Don't buy this here.

This was an absolutely abysmal experience. I had to leave one star just for the opportunity to explain how miserable it was. The unit had an invalid serial number and would not register. When I opened Universal Control, it was operating under limited functionality until the firmware was updated, which it would not do. The product support through Amazon was some poor lost soul who was reading a script and seemed to have no idea what this "thing" is or what it does. I emailed the seller in California and never got a response because what they did was send me a piece of garbage. You should buy gear like this from Sweetwater or some other group who knows what they are selling and how to help you if there is a problem. Not to mention a "brand new" "unused" piece of equipment that is not already registered on someone else's Presonus account.

PreSonus StudioLive 32R 34-input, 32-channel Series III stage box and rack mixer

An amazing digital rack mixer. I'm using it as a standalone mixer. Controlling it via my Android tablet and multi-track recording on my Laptop via the PreSonus Capture software.

Good, but...

I've had this mixer a few months now, coming from a Behringer XR18 (needed more channels). I've used it for maybe 5 shows as part of an IEM rack and also recorded a show with it.The mixer is a great, small size for a rack and it sounds ok, monitor wise.My main issues are with the Apps, Universal Control (Main mixer app) and QMix-UC (monitor app).I used a Kindle to run the XR18 and it performed flawlessly using the Mixing Station app. Never an issue.With the Presonus, I found that their Universal Control app wouldn't connect (at first), so I used Mixing Station. This worked really great at first. However, some of the guys in my band, at one gig, couldn't connect. So I tried them on the Presonus Monitor app. The drag about that app locks out users unless they have a "nickname" assigned to their phone. If you see, say, three "iPhones" it's tough to distinguish who is who. And yet others who have the app had no nicknamed assigned and could get on. It's really an annoying "feature". And I've also had the mixer lose contact during the shows with the main Tablet. I had to kill the app and re-connect. In all fairness to Presonus- this was with Mixing Station. As I said, Mixing Station is normally flawless. It's a great app and it has solved a lot of issues both with the XR18 and the Presonus. It's been frustrating. That being said, Presonus' support has been really good and they have helped me solve a few issues. It is kind of the only game in town as far as that compact size and channel layout. I just wish their apps were more robust.

Increible

La mejor consola de rack que existe

Mind completely blown. Don’t buy anything else but this mixer

This is without a doubt the best rack mount mixer bang for the buck. We only tour with Oreos us and this rig is rock solid. No problems and so customizable that we haven’t even begun getting to the limitations of the mixer. Don’t waste your time with behringer/tascam/soundcraft rack mixers. Just get a presonus 16R and know that is performs circles around everything else.

Sabor Agridulce

sin duda esta Consola es un gran producto pero al parece presonus esta olvidando las actualizaciones y compatibilidades, cuando la compre llegue a probarla y tuve un problema de compatibilidad, universal control reconocia mi consola pero esta no lograba comunicarse de manera correcta para ser usada como interfaz de grabacion, el dispositivo nunca logro actualizarse de version y al no poder ser usada como interfaz de grabacion decidi regresarla. No se si probablemente la unidad que compre vino con algun problema o simplemente presonus debe revisar para windows 11 el dirver de compatibilidad. Aún así considero que es un buen producto. Solo tener en cuenta esto que digo antes de comprarlo.
