If youre not on the same VLAN you have to go into setup each time you launch the app because the app is portable, and input the IP. The caveat is if the unit is on the same vlan as say an ipad the app will automatically find the XR12. BEHRINGER (XR12) Customer reviews.
Behringer Xr12 App Free Software WithWhen I read this, it made the XR18 sound like something I’d be interested in any day of the week, and around the same time, a live job came up for which I needed a very compact, low-profile system. Behringer describe their XR18 as an “18-channel, 12-bus digital mixer for iPad/Android tablets, with 16 programmable Midas preamps, integrated Wi-Fi module and multi-channel USB audio interface”. 100 m length) and all X AIR mixer functions. Simply copy and launch the free software with your computer, connect to the mixer via its built-in Ethernet (LAN) connector using a Cat 5 cable (max. Does Behringer’s affordable take on the concept deliver the goods?X AIR EDIT (PC/Mac/Linux) If your application requires a computer for BEHRINGER X AIR mixer remote control, the X AIR EDIT was made just for you. Mackie Control protocol).The stagebox/mixer format has become hugely popular of late.Also works with midas M Air series. The BasicsControl your behringer X Air mixer, including the XR12, XR16, and XR18. Here, I’ll be giving you a description of the XR18’s main capabilities, and my impressions of owning and using it as a live-sound mixer.This is all very handy stuff, and provided cable lengths are not too long and there are no ground-loop issues, the XR18 is all you need on a small band stage, as everything — mics, guitars, keyboards, playback — can just connect directly. Inputs 1 and 2 can accept signals from instruments such as electric guitars and basses that need to ‘see’ a very high impedance. The 16 mic inputs are accessed via ‘combi’-type connectors which will take XLR or standard 6.3mm jack plugs (you can connect balanced or unbalanced sources), and so line-level inputs direct from jack-equipped gear can be plugged straight in. With X AIR EDIT, your PC, Linux or Mac computer becomes your virtual mixer both live and in the studio.Although none of the usual mix controls appear on the unit itself — everything being controlled remotely — there is a local headphone output, which is useful for monitoring from the stage if necessary. Download X AIR for iOS to bEHRINGER X AIR iPad app for X18/XR18/XR16/XR12 DIGITAL MIXERS. There are also MIDI control ports, an Ultranet port for use with Behringer’s P16 monitoring system, and a USB port that allows 18 channel bi-directional traffic for recording and playback on an external DAW application. The Ethernet port is where a LAN control cable or external wireless router is hooked up, and the associated ‘remote’ switch selects the control mode between LAN, Wi-Fi client or Access Point options. The other connectors at the top of the panel are those concerned with control and digital I/O. In the years since I bought my first fully digital console I have often wished that I could have the option of controlling everything through a software application, but doing away with the physical control surface completely is a big step. There is an on/off switch alongside the IEC connector on the side panel, and of course this is no longer accessible from the front when the XR18 is mounted in a rack — you either have to stick your hand in from the back or leave it switched on, which is what my crew do as they haven’t found it yet.The idea of such mixers is that the ‘stagebox’ part, which contains all the mix processing, sits near to the performers, with the control device being operated at the mix position the controller is the interface between operator and system and, in the case of the XR18, there are no ‘real’ physical controls at all — everything is done on a touchscreen or with a mouse and keyboard. I installed mine in an empty 3U shallow rack case in about five minutes, and it not only looks the business but — being such a small unit to begin with — there’s plenty of space left inside the case to store the mains lead, some Cat 5 cables and an external router if you plan to use one. All of this massive functionality is built into a very neat and sturdy stagebox, which has rubber bumpers on each end for stand-alone use, or can be mounted into a case or rack using the supplied rack ears. ![]() ![]() The detailed description names various famous classic devices which have ‘inspired’ some of the Behringer effects — all I can say is that they sound good when I’m using my own X32 and they sound just as good here in the little XR18. There are 41 types available and these can be loaded into the four-slot virtual effects rack. ProcessingIf you like the effects processors in Behringer’s X32 mixer, you’ll recognise those in the XR18. Crak serialsClicking on any of the effects (which are nicely represented with authentic-looking front-panel views, as in the X32) brings in a larger view of the ‘hardware’ and allows all of its front panel knobs to be adjusted by dragging the mouse pointer or hovering and scrolling with the mouse wheel. Again, it’s two mouse clicks and you’re done. The effects can be configured as inserts on any input (1 to 16) or output bus including main left/right output. The XR18 control app allows aux sends to be controlled by ‘sends on faders’ or by direct per-channel adjustment using the ‘sends’ tab, so whichever method you’re used to, it’s all here ready to be used without fear or panic. And the poor guy on the desk is frantically trying to work out why the main mix is sounding all wrong and then alas, too late, noticing the ‘sends on faders’ button flashing happily. I’ve witnessed more than a few near-panic situations where someone on stage is (politely, of course) requesting more of this, less of that, some reverb over here and none over there, I hate my guitar and so on.
