1.1 Host system requirements for X-USB interface expansion card

Check the BEHRINGER website at behringer.com for updates of X-USB firmware or system requirements. Please find the recommended hardware/software minimum configurations in the specifications section.

1.2 The BEHRINGER X-USB High-Performance 32-Channel 24-Bit USB Audio Interface

The X-USB option card gives 32 channel, bi-directional audio I/O via USB 2.0 serial bus for Mac computers or Windows-based applications. The simultaneous 32-in, 32-out audio channels enable for extremely powerful studio and live applications. You can run virtual live sound checks or 32-track high-quality studio recordings, while at the same time remote operating your DAW via HUI/Mackie Control emulation. The high speed 24-bit signal transmission and ultra-low latency ASIO drivers and CoreAudio compatibility even allow inserting audio plugins on your PC to perform advanced outboard processing.

1.3 Configuring the X-USB option card for use in the console

The console will automatically detect the X-USB option card during the regular boot cycle, and it will display the card's presence in several instances.

The green square in front of "C: X-USB" indicates that the card is installed and working properly.

2. Installing a BEHRINGER Interface Card

Before you install an I/O card to the expansion slot of the console, you must check the BEHRINGER website to verify whether the console supports that card. behringer.com

CAUTION: Before installing optional I/O cards into the console, you must make sure that the console's power switch is turned off. Malfunctions or electrical shock may occur otherwise.

To install an interface I/O card:

1. Make sure that the mixer's power is turned off.
2. Loosen the screws that fasten the slot, then remove the slot cover and keep it in a safe place.
3. Before removing the X-USB card from its protective bag, it is recommended to touch the grounded metal chassis of the console to prevent electrostatic discharges affecting the sensitive electronic components. It is generally a good idea to hold the card either by the face plate or by the two small handles, but never touching the components on the circuit board directly.
4. Align both edges of the card with the guide rails inside the slot and carefully insert the card into the slot. Push the card all the way into the slot to ensure that the contacts of the card are correctly inserted into the connector inside.
5. Fasten the card using the included screws. Be aware that damage or malfunctions may occur if the card is not fastened.

3. Configuring the PC to Interface with the X-USB Option Card

Please watch behringer.com for further advice on the software configuration of X-USB interface card.

Windows: There is an ASIO high-performance driver available for download, which is essential for low-latency audio on Windows-based applications.

MacOS: The X-USB is CoreAudio compatible and thus works with low-latency on Mac computers without any additional driver installation.

ASIO Driver for Windows-based Applications

Download the X32 ASIO driver installer files from behringer.com. Double-click on Setup.exe in the corresponding unpacked folder and follow the instructions on the screen.

Driver Control Panels

Once the driver is installed, you can open the control panel by double-clicking on the small tray icon. These screens will allow configuring the X-USB expansion card in the X32 as an audio interface for your computer.
