PreSonus® StudioLive® Series III 32R Digital Rack Mixer

34-Input, 32-Channel Series III Stage Box And Rack Mixer

The StudioLive® 32R digital mixer is four audio tools in two compact rackspaces. Use it as a standalone digital mixer with UC Surface remote mixing software. Pair it with your StudioLive Series III console mixer to use as a stage box or integrated monitor mixer.

Connect it with EarMix 16M monitor mixers for the ultimate personal monitor system. Plug it into your studio computer, and you have a continuously bidirectional, 128-channel (64x64) USB audio interface with modeled vintage dynamics and EQ plug-ins on every input and bus. Whether used standalone or as part of a complete audio system, no other rackmount digital mixer is as flexible or as powerful.

Inside the StudioLive 32R, the single-core PreSonus® FLEX DSP Engine powers 40 mixing channels, 22 mix buses, and 270 simultaneous processors, including 4 stereo effects and Fat Channel plug-in models on every input channel and mix bus. This is a true 32-channel digital mixer that can comfortably fit in any size rig. Simply connect it to a standard wireless router and control every mix parameter from your iPad®, Android™ tablet, or Windows® Touch computer using UC Surface. UC Surface was designed to make mixing on a touch screen as intuitive as mixing on faders.

An integrated 128-channel (64x64) audio interface lets you record with digitally recallable analog preamps and a complete rack of vintage EQ and dynamics processors for every channel and bus. Modeled after classic analog studio designs, these compressor and EQ plug-ins load both natively on the StudioLive 32R and inside Studio One®, providing the ultimate mixing and recording flexibility.

Highlights & Specifications

An Integrated Monitor Mixer.

Having a dedicated monitor mixer is the best way to ensure musicians can hear themselves clearly on stage. When connected to a StudioLive Series III console mixer, the StudioLive 32R provides remote inputs and main outputs while simultaneously retaining full control over its FlexMixes, so you can create up to six monitor mixes complete with independent gate, compression, EQ, and effects on every channel and bus.

The Perfect Personal Monitoring System.

When combined with up to 16 EarMix 16M personal monitor mixers, the StudioLive 32R is the most powerful personal monitoring hub available. With 16 FlexMix buses that can be configured as aux mixes, subgroups, or matrix mixes, the StudioLive 32R makes it easy to create simplified mixes for musicians on stage. No other personal monitoring system offers so much power and flexibility.

The Digital Stage Box.

As a digital stage box, the StudioLive 32R provides 24 remote digitally controlled XMAX preamps that can be gain-staged right from your StudioLive Series III console Fat Channel. The outputs of the StudioLive 32R automatically mirror the mixes available on your console mixer, making routing fast and easy.

Designed to enhance each other, these products are at the forefront of AVB networking technology. Whether used standalone or part of a StudioLive Series III ecosystem network, the StudioLive 32R is the ultimate compact audio solution.
