Customizing X32 Edit Software

[Music] hey hey what's going on guys and gals this is dana and today we're just going to play around with the x32 just real quick here as far as customization there's just so many things and so many different ways you can customize the layout and we're going to start right up here with the sign you've got to set a b and c and what this is this is if you had a x32 uh desk on the right hand side about midway below you're going to have a set of hotkeys or controls of things that you can actually do and if you want to edit them then you would set here and this is how you edit a b and c and the encoders okay there are so many different ways and there's no way i'm going to go over all of these you need to read the book come up here and decide what you want to do with this but right now i'm just going to select sends and channel 1 and send 0 1 as you can see there's all these options that you can choose okay and then i'm just going to click off of that now when i come back up to a sign again i'm going to say set a and then i'm just going to pin it off so now if i come up here to the sends as you can see right here at channel one i apologize let's bring this up again now i'm going to pin that off as i move this up and down you'll see that fader on the left hand side moving up and down okay you see that now you have 12 uh buttons on each one of these so you've got a set a you've got a set b and you've got a set c and you can literally pull all these out if you want to totally up to you and as you can see i've got some things set up here i just been uh playing around with this last week and this one i haven't even got to yet okay so these are your hot keys there's so much you can do with these it's incredible okay this is not a training video this is a video to show how you can manipulate this software so let's go ahead and go over to the mixer section and right now we've got the 32 channels if i wanted to get all 32 of these channels onto my screen i would have to go into my windows setting and i would have to increase that screen resolution to where it would fit in there now i can promise you it's going to be a lot smaller so depending on your eyesight and what your age is you can also come up here you know if you're if you're getting up there in age kind of like a lot of us are put it up on ultra you know you got no problem missing that and as you can see it really doesn't do you a whole lot of good because there's a lot of stuff you just can't get to okay so if you have a much larger screen if you're doing this you know from a tv monitor type of deal then this is something you could possibly look into you've got this button right up here you can click that off and do away with this okay now over here that any layout that you have right here just like this if i come up here and click edit i can take these channels right off of here i can put whatever i want to and it'll take it right off if i'm not using those channels okay so let's just go ahead and go back and i'm going to see exactly what we're using and they are using uh they're not using 2930 or 31. now as you can see when i added these channels back it put them over here on the right hand side not a big deal come over here and click move and just start moving these channels right back over where you want to put them and this is a two-step process for me because of my screen size and then as i come down here and i slide them over i can come over and pick up where i left off there's one i'm going to bring it all the way over to the left now and i'm just going to repeat this process i'm just left uh left mouse clicking guys just so you know i'm holding it down and there we go okay now everything's back in order and then you just click off of it again now let's say that i come up here and say you know what i'm going to take these off here i'm going to add these here i'm going to add this and then you come back here to the head and you go you know what i really didn't want to do that well it's no problem come back over here to edit initialize bank it puts everything right back it was like stock or default or however you want to say it okay it's so simple to do if you're not going to use if you're on an iraq and you don't want these 17 through 32 you would come up here and hit edit you can take every one of these channels off and that way when you go over here to switch your layers you don't have to worry about looking at a bunch of stuff that's not going to do you any good let's say that you want to sit there and do uh your your matrix maybe you're running three matrix okay and and maybe you're only running uh three dcas and let's say okay uh you're running uh four bosses because you got two stereo pair and uh let's say you got three aux ends and you're using all your fx okay well there you go that's it everything that you've just literally set up now you can do off of these two channels right here these two layers i should say so there's so many ways that you can do this it's incredible you're not going to find any of this in your manuals you just got to get up here and play with your programs now another thing you can do if you're using a rollerball or you're using a mouse you can click on these channels and you can use your will okay to actually move this fader up and down however you want to put it me it's just easier to mess you know grab it with the the left mouse and just run it however i want it and those are just some of the ways that you can manipulate this software to fit your needs and like i said when you come back if you come up here and you say you know i really didn't want to do all that just initialize initialize the bank it puts everything just like it was when it came from the factory okay guys so you know going through all of that putting everything as wide as you can get it you've also got your user one and user two down here as well you can come up here and edit these and you can do everything that you want but at this point you know you've already got it over here on the left hand side but if you wanted to just you know let's just for whatever reason that you just wanted to have all your matrix on one layer along with your left and right and your mono channel you can sit here and just rename this matrix and mains okay and then you know there's what it's going to look like but you know like i said it's just an example of how you can manipulate the the layers and that's what these are you know even if you had the full-size desk guys you would still be going through those layers there on the left hand side you would just be pushing the button here you're clicking the mouse all right take care god bless and we are out of here
