The Behringer P16-M Personal Monitor system is a great system to pair with the Behringer X32 or Midas M32. We can send 16 mono channels or 8 stereo channels to these personal mixers. In this video I have put together a quick tutorial to get you up and running from the beginning!

You can hook it up with the S32 Stage box. That’s how I have it hooked up. It’s the last 16 outputs in routing.

Just to confirm this. A P16-M can directly connect to an x air 18 without the need of P16-D... And then more P16-Ms can br daisy chained. Right?

@dominikkriss1853 2 жыл бұрын

Thanx Drew for lot of knowledge you are giving us! awesome! I would like to ask thou, is it possible to use Ultranet as a "input splitter". Situation I'm facing many times is: I need to provide few (lets say up to 16) of my inputs to broadcast guy. Usually we do it using external splitters, as he is doing his own mix on his own analog console. I can add addition stagebox and use its outputs to direct out desired inputs to him but only up to 8. Ultranet seems to be more appropriate for this task, as I can direct out up to 16 channels this way. But how can I get all of those 16 channels from Ultranet? P16 only have 1 output. Is there any "box" which can output all 16 channels without any of p16 processing (basically RAW signal which is given to Ultranet by x32)?

I'm using a x32, s16 and p16 stagebox. I did the update to fw4.1 and it has routed the s16 outputs to the p16 outputs and I can't find anyway to change it. I have copied your settings exactly and I can either get outputs to the p16 or s16. Not both. I can't find anything about this anywhere. PLEASE HELP we are really struggling without our P16s. Currently I am bussing everything to mixbuses 1-6 with the master channels on 7+8 to get the P16s to work. It is also sending our effects buses to 13-16 on the p16s. HELP HELP HELP

Hi Drew! 1. Wing to P16 configuration and tap points please. Do I have same amount of tap points for P16 from Wing as with x32? If so, how do I get them going. (I can't seem to find them) 2. Also can you please explain how to pink out and eq the room using the oscillator, mic and RTA on the Wing? You made a similar video on how to do this on the X32 (on the behringer KZfaq channel). And I tried to do the same thing on the Wing but wasn't able to send pink noise to the mains (just like on the X32) and after a while I just got a bit lost on the whole process, so it will help a lot if you guide us once again. Thank you so much in advance, Drew!

Hi Drew, I appreciate your videos. I just got an x32 Rack and wish I could connect to an MR-18 for the preamps. Is there a way to use the UltraNet out of the MR-18 into the x32? Also, regarding the preamps, I know there's a lot of different opinions. What do you think about the difference in quality between the X32 Rack (Or Producer) preamps and the midas preamps for recording?

@DavidCasper Жыл бұрын

I know this is 7 months late, but if you still need it or if anyone else is wondering - no, unfortunately you can't use Ultranet that way. It's unidirectional, meaning the signal can only flow one way in an Ultranet port, and the X32 Rack's port is for output, not input. It would be better to replace the MR-18 with a Midas DL-16 or DL-32, which is a stage box meant for that purpose that has the same good preamps. As for the difference between the preamps, in my experience the tonal color is pretty similar between the two but the Midas is a bit better. You'll only notice any kind of difference if you're driving a decently hot signal through them, though - quiet signals won't sound particularly different at all. I do find the Midas preamps have a better S/N (signal-to-noise) ratio though, which means there's noticeably less of that background hiss that exists in all recordings. Better preamps and A/D converters will generally have less noise, meaning you can record quieter sources or turn the gain for channels up more without that hiss becoming overly audible.

I’m considering taking an aux and routing it physically to a channel and routing that to channel 16 on my pm16. That way I’ll have access to all inputs via my iPad and remote software without having to permanently assign a source. I’ve had issues being able to monitor late minute added microphones. If there’s another way I’m curious. Thanks for what you do.

I actually have a video coming up soon about this very thing! I set up a pre-fader mix and have that routed down one of the P16 outputs. I use this for getting some stereo channels down to mono to maximize what is available on the P16 for the musicians. I call them Flex Channels and typically will set up 4 of them.

Hi Drew. Thank you very much for your video which is really useful and important for me. I have to ask you something very important: I need to send to the P16M personal mixers, the available channels already summed with the effects, and especially the lead vocals. In fact, lead vocals need to hear their own voice, in the IN Ear Monitor from P16M, complete with the effect (reverb and delay). I can't find this exact setting, as the signals going into the P16M personal mixers are currently without effects. Thanks in advance if you can help me with this problem.

@DavidCasper Жыл бұрын

Try sending the signal with the desired effects to a mix bus or matrix and then setting the P16 to take its input from that mix bus or matrix rather than a particular channel. If you don't know how: - Select a Mix Bus (or stereo link a pair of them if you want stereo) - Hit Sends on Fader - Set levels and effects the way you want them going into the Mix Bus, just as if it were a monitor/house speaker - Go to Routing, Ultranet (or P16) - Set an input channel for the P16 to use that Mix Bus as its source
