Wow! after all these years, someone is still making videos about these consoles. Thank you thank you thank you! I've been using these consoles for years and there is still so much I don't know about them. Please keep making more! You're a life saver for me. Always know that you're making someone's life better. I won't forget this!

Aw this is such a nice comment. Really hearing this makes my day. These consoles are a bit of a maze. I'm so glad it's been useful.

Having already spent a good amount of time in front of Midas Pro consoles, I can say that I feel quite comfortable working with them. But still, I find this type of videos very entertaining and usefull. Either to remember things that I had forgotten how to use or even that it could do, or to discover new shortcuts and workflows. 👌

I stopped doing live mixing around 2005 when all mixers were still analog. To me the routing of this desk feels quite logical. It was probably created with the pro mixer of that era in mind. When doing large gigs a pro mixer would sometimes have to keep track of some very complex routings in his head especially with festivals with several bands on one stage and a multitrack recording van outside the venue.

Brilliant video. I have been using the MiDAS pro 1 for a number of years now and there's some things you've told me that are absolutely new to me. I have subscribed now so more please. I need to know about the second headphone mix.

5:50 you can use this together with say an DN9650 using 2 AES ports on the back for 48 Channels (24 per AES50 line) for multitrack recording as well in something like Waves Tracks Live or Studio one, or any other DAW for that matter. Something i thought id just mention. Also Hi fellow Norwegian 🤣

Wish some third-party companies could release a touchscreen mod kit for these consoles

I always learn something new from your videoes. I use the Midas M32 and i love it.

Great video! I have been looking for an explanation of these features for a while. The Midas manual doesn’t cover this. Thanks for the video!

Is there a reason you returned the automixer's signals to aux return channels rather than the original channels (25-32)? It kind of misses the point of an insert effect if you're going to treat it like a send effect right?

I agree. I would want to save my returns for FX, especially since you can't route an aux or a matrix back to an aux on those consoles (only the fx returns), like if a musician wants to hear reverb in their monitor. I might give that a try one day. I'll drop a comment if I ever do... though I actually prefer not to use automixers, no offense of course to anyone who does.

Although, the patching on that console is quite comprehensive, you can just route FX returns to input channels and route them to auxes. You can route almost anything almost anywhere.
