The PreSonus StudioLive 32SX is a small format digital mixer with incredible controls, easy routing, AVB networking, and expandability options. It is packed with features and tools, including 40 mixing channels, 286 processors, 128-channel USB recording, onboard multitrack SD Card recording, and 16 FlexMixes that can be configured as aux, subgroup, or matrix mixes. Whether you’re in the studio, in front of the stage, or behind it, the StudioLive 32SX is designed to impress with its intuitive workflow, stylish design, and easy controls.
Operating within a 32-channel frame, the 32SX fulfills the needs of sound engineers working in medium to large venues with fewer channels. It features local analog connects on every channel and bus, and can be networked with NSB stage boxes. With 33 motorized touch-sensitive faders, you have a huge amount of control over your mixes, whether you’re setting up for a big show or need to mix on the fly. The analog connectors on each channel allow your mix to sound as audibly rich as the gear producing it, thanks to the Fat Channel plug-ins. The desk also features FlexMix, which allows you to assign different functions to 16 channels, providing flexibility for any venue or band. AVB compatibility ensures high-quality audio distribution, especially when using audio over Ethernet.
The StudioLive 32SX comes with PreSonus Capture recording software, allowing you to record your mixes for later distribution. It can be run to your mixer for in-box recording or to a Windows or macOS computer. The software is integrated with Capture and Studio One Artist, and you can also mix wirelessly using the UC Surface, controlling your desk from your Mac, Windows, Android, or iPad. The QMix-UC software allows further control of monitor mixes with compatible devices. The desk also features a durable and portable design, making it ideal for installed sound, mobile applications, and recording. It includes a dual-core FLEX DSP Engine for powerful processing, built-in AVB networking, a 128-channel USB interface, a multitrack SD Card recorder, and expandable plug-in processing with vintage EQ and classic compression options. It also comes with advanced DAW Control integration, including optimized modes for Logic and Pro Tools. The complete solution includes UC Surface mix control software, Capture live-recording software, and Studio One Artist DAW, as well as compatibility with the QMix-UC personal monitoring control. The StudioLive 32SX comes with a 3-year warranty.
