What is the configuration of the expansion slot that the X32 ships with? Is it USB able to connect multi-track to PC? If so, how many channels?

X32 Consoles that are over about 12 months old (about July 2013) have an XUF card that has both a USB 2.0 and a Firewire 800 port. My console has that card, but I have since purchased two X32 Racks and their expansion card is the XUSB card and it only has a USB 2.0 port (something about Apple not supporting the Firewire chip set anymore). I have done a lot of recording with both the console and the racks and have not had any problems with either. The XUSB card will connect to your PC or Mac and do a full 32 IN and 32 OUT to your DAW such that the DAW can control the console with remote control. Basically you just need to make sure that the Head Amps for each track are sending a hot signal, but NOT CLIPPING. That will screw up a tracks recording faster than anything. You can use compressors in the DAW to recover from too weak a signal, but you can't do anything about a clipped signal. For DAW's, I have used Presonus Studio One, Tracktion64, Pro Tools, and Apple Logic Pro X. I usually capture the tracks from a live recording using Studio One, but always do my mix down and mastering with Apple Logic Pro X. I have recorded 32 tracks without any problem.

I use XP so I can't be sure about other systems. It uses USB so should work. However the receiver RCA jacks produce hum, so plan on using the mini plug and cord that comes with it. Doing that it works like a charm.

Yep! Use it with sonar x3. Windows 7 64 bit and a usb3 external hard drive. Works perfectly!

The internal USB port on mine worked just fine for every device I tried it with in both Windows 7 Ultimate x64 & 8.1 Pro x64. Mainly just wireless receivers tested. The only issue with the internal USB slot that I had was with the computer case and other internal components creating wireless interference on some of the devices. This was especially true after I installed a large graphics card above this card. If you are using a weaker strength wireless device, you may want to plug the receiver into an external USB slot instead of this internal one. A high powered quality wireless device should work just fine internally though for most people.

Hi, it was designed to connect PC to PC . . . I would contact their C/S for possible software up-date. Good Luck !!!

If you go to their web site there are a variety of drivers for the cable. The table of drivers does show a 32bit driver. The cble does work great on my setup which is a Windows 7 system. Setting this stuff up for your radio may be a test of patience and homework along with a friend who has been there and done that.-- I had to have a lot of support from my brother who is an ex NASA engineer and an Extra with over 50 years of experience. I would say just give it a try and see what happens. Just hang on to your patience and do not have any big hammers near you.

I have an old microsoft joystick with the gameport DB-15 connector. I bought this thinking I could go straight to the USB port and the machine would see it. It did not.. I actually found an older Soundblaster soundcard with a gameport, installed it in a PCI slot and that is working fine, if you have the slot and any sound card with a game port. Otherwise.. don't bother. There were some people talking about converters etc and I thought.... no .... either do what I did or buy a new USB joystick which you will need for newer games anyway...

6 channels. The speaker out put is single but can be split with a splitter. The MP3 input works well. The MIDI files preprogrammed are ok but they get old quick. Hope this helps.

The Inport Hotwire box contains: manual; installer disc;a cable with small headphone jack to usb with Inport Hotwire device mid-cable; an adapter to change small headphone plug to 1/4 in plug; cable with RCA plugs to small headphone plug; a small cable with with RCA plugs to small headphone jack. There are are several versions of this. All will not be the same, however all wll work the same. The registration key, in my case, is on the paper cover for the install disc. Mine has worked just fine, other than the fact that I can't separate the tracks that I have transferred to my PC from a vinyl. I get the whole disc, it's just identified as single entry. I suggest you check out the reviews on Amazon.

It does not have a port for accessories. You will need a separate controller for them. Just a cheap one will do. But do not run wires from a DC transformer and the DCC unit to the track at the same time, just use the DC unit for your accessories.

The instruction manual says an htmi cable can be hooked up. I think some sort of adapter is required. I did not see a specific slot for that.

First, you know this, but deserves repeating XP is no longer supported by MS and soon by others. With that said. Plugable has a 3.0 USB that works (USB3-E1000), I think it will revert to USB 2.0 speed - 100MB, but mine runs at 1GBAlso any USB to Ethernet that supports XP will work, has nothing to do with the system and all about USB You can also put a wireless board, but I personally don't use it any more because the USB is faster and doesn't use my wifi bandwidth.

Sorry. You should have gotten an X32. The Presonus only does Firewire, and their Firewire does not work with what is normally built into most PCs. That is, you have to get a Firewire card with a Texas Instrument Chipset. If you have an older laptop with a PCMIA card slot, you are in luck as you can add a Firewire card. On the other hand, if you have a desktop or tower computer, you can add a quality Firewire card for about $20 if your have any slots left. 3 Port Firewire Adapter Card Hope that helps!

Let me give you an overview of how this works: This mixer is not a "soundcard" type device, rather it is a simple mixer that will hook up to your computer using the digital USB port. It allows for external sources (music players, microphones, guitars, etc.) to be routed to your computer's USB port as a STEREO ONLY (left & right audio channels) input device. Using USB for an input will give you a cleaner audio signal that using old analog cables (RCA, 1/4", etc.) This mixer is not controlled by the computer, but there are audio parameters that you can adjust on your PC computer. If you go to START&gt;CONTROL PANEL&gt;SOUND there you can find the global audio settings for the computer. After installation you "may" find some additional settings such as Overall Volume, Left or Right Panning, Input Levels and Output Levels as well as what devices are available. This mixer is not a multi-track recording mixer/soundcard, but you can record up to 2 independent channels (left and right) at once, and using recording software such as Cakewalk, Magix Music, Adobe, etc. you can build up a recording using two tracks at a time. This is a great little mixer to start with for uses that do not require advanced audio engineering demands.

Hey Chor, just wondering if you figured this out yet? I'm looking for an expander for my 8300HDC on TW cable so i was wondering did they ever fix the problem on the software?
