Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The S32 consolidates 32 microphone inputs and 16 balanced XLR outputs into a rackmount digital stage box for AES50-based systems. Its two AES50 SuperMAC ports carry bidirectional digital audio, with cable runs up to 100 m using shielded Cat5e. With a compatible mixer, preamp gain, phantom power, and channel routing can be controlled remotely instead of adjusted at the stage box. Ultranet output also provides a 16-channel connection for the P16 personal monitoring system.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Moving 32 microphone inputs and 16 XLR outputs between stage and an AES50-compatible console.
- Live setups that need remote preamp gain, phantom-power, and routing control from a compatible mixer.
- Systems using P16 personal monitoring through the S32's 16-channel Ultranet output.
