X32 User Routing: How to Patch Inputs and Outputs Like a Pro
In this video, we’re diving into User Routing on the Behringer X32 — the feature that gives you full control over how inputs and outputs are patched on your console.
We’ll look at both the User In and User Out tabs, walk through real-world examples, and show you how to create custom routing blocks that combine Local, AES50, Card, or USB sources — and then send your audio exactly where you need it to go. Whether you’re running FOH, streaming, or recording, this is where the X32 starts to feel like your console.
