Each of the buses will output to their corresponding XLR output (bus 1 goes to output1, bus 2 goes to output 2, and so on) by default although this can be changed in the routing menu.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">Below are two methods for sending an input channel to a bus as well as a brief description of situations where each would be useful.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"western\">Method #1<\/h4>\n<p>This method is useful in situations where you only need to adjust a single channel. For example, if the lead singer wants to hear more acoustic guitar.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">1. Select the channel you wish to send to a bus.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Select-button.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1726881 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Select-button-149x300.jpg\" alt=\"X32 input Select button\" width=\"149\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">2. Turn up the bus send knob for the bus you wish to send that channel to. This will determine how much of the selected channel will be sent to the bus. In this example we are using bus #1.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Bus-Sends-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1726882 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Bus-Sends-2-170x300.jpg\" alt=\"X32 Bus Sends 2\" width=\"170\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Bus-Sends-2-170x300.jpg 170w, https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Bus-Sends-2.jpg 554w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 170px) 100vw, 170px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">3. Turn up the fader for the bus you would like to use.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">The bus fader will control the overall volume of each of the channels being sent to it. If you are familiar with analog mixers, the bus fader is similar to an Aux master.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"western\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Bus-Fader1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1726886 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Bus-Fader1-234x300.jpg\" alt=\"X32 Bus Fader\" width=\"234\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Bus-Fader1-234x300.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Bus-Fader1-798x1024.jpg 798w, https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Bus-Fader1.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 234px) 100vw, 234px\" \/><\/a><\/h4>\n<p>Method #2<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">This method is best for situations where you&#8217;re adjusting multiple channels at the same time. For example, when you are running two completely different mixes for your stage monitors and you need to pull all of the drums and bass out of one monitors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">1. Press the select button on the bus you want to work adjust followed by the Sends on Faders button<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Select-Bus-Sends-on-Fader.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1726887 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/X32-Select-Bus-Sends-on-Fader-74x300.png\" alt=\"X32 Select Bus &amp; Sends on Fader\" width=\"74\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">2. While the Sends on Faders button is flashing, the channel faders will adjust the amount of that channel that is going to the selected bus.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/Sends-on-Faders.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1726888\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/Sends-on-Faders-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Sends on Faders\" width=\"620\" height=\"414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/Sends-on-Faders-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2016\/02\/Sends-on-Faders-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Helpful Links<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/getting-to-know-your-behringer-x32\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Getting to know your Behringer X32<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/behringer-x32-s16-setup\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Behringer X32: S16 setup<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/behringer-x32-how-to-assign-channels-to-a-mute-group\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Behringer X32: How to assign channels to a Mute Group<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/behringer-x32-what-is-a-dca-and-when-should-i-use-one\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Behringer X32: What is a DCA and when should I use one?<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/how-does-the-behringer-x32-compact-differ-from-the-x32\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">How does the Behringer X32 Compact differ from the X32?<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[1],"tags":[55545,99857,53648,54355,55074,53947,99856,53948,115923],"storecat":[],"itemids":[16634,52494,52495],"manufacturers":[33214],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Check out the Behringer X32:  How to route an input to a bus page at Sweetwater \u2014 the world&#039;s leading music technology and instrument retailer!\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/behringer-x232-how-to-route-an-input-to-a-bus\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Behringer X32: How to route an input to a bus - SweetCare\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The buses on the X32 function similar to the way an Aux on an analog mixer does.
