Most of the routers that are in use out there will make a Class C network which will give 256 addresses. For this example, I am going to use a router with an address of 192.168.1.1. The IP address range is set by your router, the most basic off the shelf routers will have an IP address itself of 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1. The most common network addresses that we see are between the ranges of IP address stands for Internet Protocol Address, specifically IPv4, and is a numerical address for each device on a network.

The most important part of the networking side of the X32 are the addresses. The network for the X32 is using the same technology as your computer or laptop.

If you wanted to add more ports to connect more devices, you would use the network switch. Network cables are used in a vast array of companies with big to small devices needing to be installed and connected, this can be done by using resources such as a network cabling company like Northeastern Electronics Company that will be able to provide the services required.Ī network switch gives the ability to expand the physical network connections as your wireless router will have 4 LAN ports on it. We typically will find a ‘wireless router’ to not only allow physical connections with network cables but also allow wireless devices like phones or tablets to connect as well. With the X32 we can use CAT5, CAT5e, and CAT6 cables for the network interface.Ī router is the device that gives out IP addresses to everything on the network and is the main brains of the network. A CAT5e cable stands for the type of network cable it is. A lot of the time, people just use whatever equipment that comes with their shentel internet plans, and although that’s great, there may be some other useful equipment to use as well.Ī network in the old days was only connected with network cables, what we refer to as CAT5e cables. Router, Switch, Cables?!īefore we get too far, we need to talk about the devices that we use to get our network going! I’ll admit, this bit can get a little confusing if you don’t know what anything is. You cannot listen to audio from the X32 through your phone.
#BEHRINGER X32 USB PLAY FOLDER OF MUSIC ANDROID#
Having the Behringer X32 and Midas M32 connected to a network will give a lot of flexibility that you wouldn’t have without it.įYI, back in the day, it was called X-Control and Xi-Control!!įirst let’s get one thing straight, while the iPhone, iPad and Android apps can ‘adjust’ the monitor mix, it cannot monitor or listen to this mix.

A touch opens the USB Player window for folder/track/source selection.

The grey box displays the currently selected track. To make this easier, I have a group of controls at the bottom right of the layouts. When I'm running my XR12, MR12 or XR16, I often use the USB Player for break music and to record the mix.
