Hi Guys,
We did announce 4 new X32 consoles at the 2013 NAMM show.
We are looking to ship later in Q2, (May/June).
I have included additional info about the new X32 models below.
The new models released at NAMM should be looked at as full X32 consoles as they share the same DSP and firmware. The main differences are related to control surface and I/O implementation. As the X32 is part of an audio ecosystem all models can utilize the S16 stageboxes for added I/O as needed.
X32 Compact
General Description: basically a smaller desktop console similar to the full X32 layout, (see I/O below).
- 8 less input faders compared to the full X32
- The physical Bus Send Encoders have been removed from the channel strip
- Smaller Assign Section, (8 buttons, no Assign encoders, one layer)
- See I/O differences below
X32 Compact: I/O
16 MIDAS Designed Preamps
8 XLR Outputs
6 1/4"" TRS Auxiliary ins and outs, (Auxiliary 5/6 also have RCA)
2 - AES50 ports (48 in x48 out)
1 - AES/EBU
1 - ULTRANET port, (16 ch - for P16 personal monitor system)
32x32 Firewire/USB card included
2 - 1/4"" TRS Monitor Outputs

$2,499 US MAP
X32 Producer
General Description: more compact, and therefore rack-mountable, 5"" TFT screen.
- No Mute Groups buttons, but you can still use Mute Groups via XControl, as well as you can assign any Mute Group button to any of the 8 Assignable buttons on the console. You can also control access the Mute groups by pressing the MUTE GRP button by the screen and using the rotary encoders
- Scene management can still be done on the Producer, by pressing the added dedicated Scene button near the screen, you can use the rotary encoders beneath the screen for scene management, (this is also true on the X32 Rack).

- No AES/EBU (2 Channel digital out)
