Digital mixing console Midas M32 LIVE with DN32-Live card

The Midas M32 LIVE digital mixing console with DN32‑Live card is a professional live sound mixing solution designed for front-of-house, monitoring and live multitrack recording. The console integrates extensive channel processing, routing and multiple motorized faders with a dedicated DN32‑Live expansion card that provides low-latency multitrack AES50 network connectivity and direct multitrack recording to compatible DAWs. Built for engineers and venues that require reliable control, the M32 LIVE supports complex show setups while simplifying signal flow and on-site recording tasks.

Advantages

The M32 LIVE offers precision channel processing, including high-quality preamps, parametric EQ and dynamics per channel, enabling consistent sound shaping across large channel counts. Motorized faders and intuitive control layout allow fast scene changes and recall. The DN32‑Live card expands functionality with multitrack network audio and direct recording capabilities, reducing the need for additional converters or patching. Robust build quality and clear metering improve reliability during live events and long tours.

Suitable for

• Live concert front-of-house mixing
• Stage monitoring and in-ear monitor (IEM) systems
• Multitrack live recording and streaming setups
• Houses of worship, theaters and fixed-install venues

Key specifications

• Digital mixing architecture with multiple input channels and buses
• Motorized channel faders for scene recall and automation
• Per-channel preamps, parametric EQ and dynamics processing
• Flexible routing matrix for FOH, monitor mixes and auxiliary sends
• DN32‑Live card providing multitrack network audio and low-latency connectivity
• Multitrack recording capability to external DAWs via network interface
• Clear metering and color-coded controls for fast visual feedback

How to use

Set input gain using the console preamp controls, assign each input to the desired channel and shape sound with the channel EQ and dynamics sections. Use the motorized faders and mix buses to build front-of-house and monitor mixes, and store scenes for rapid recall between performances. Install the DN32‑Live card according to manufacturer instructions and establish the network audio connection to compatible stage boxes or a recording workstation for multitrack capture. Route auxiliary sends for wedges or IEM mixes and adjust send levels from each channel to tailor monitor mixes.

Recommendations

For reliable multitrack recording, use a dedicated recording workstation connected via the DN32‑Live network interface and verify clock sync settings before a performance. Regularly save scenes and snapshots, label inputs and outputs consistently, and perform gain structure checks during soundcheck to minimize noise and clipping. Use the console's built-in processing to reduce reliance on external outboard gear and keep firmware up to date for compatibility and stability improvements.
