 +Note: During this stage, you can select which channels need Phantom Power - press the 48V button to switch it on (button illuminates when on). 
 +
 +The "O" button is used to invert the phase of  amicrophone - this is only really necessary when two mics are picking up the same item, and one mic is out of phase causing the sound to be reduced.
 +
 +==== EQ Settings ====
 +
 +The EQ panel is located at the top left of the X32 desk, as shown below:
 +
 +{{::eq-panel.jpg|}}
 +
 +You can access the screen menu by pressing the View button in the Equaliser area.
 +
 +The easiest way so assign an EQ to each channel is to select a preset setup embedded in the desk:
 +
 +  * Select the channel you want to assign the EQ to
 +  * On the menu area, select the Library button.  Along the left hand side of the screen, select the elements to be loaded (Usually just Equaliser)
 +  * Scroll down the list of options to find the nearest instrument / voice and load
 +  * Adjust to suit the actual input, eg if you have loaded the Female vocal, adjust the low level cut to a lower frequency.
 +
 +
 +=== Notes ===
 +
 +
 +|Vocal - Male|Low cut off frequency|100Hz|
 +|Vocal - Female|Low cut off frequency|75Hz|
 +
 +It is useful to cut a little around the 220Hz frequency
 +
 +==== Adding Effects ====
 +
 +To add an effect to a channel:
 +
 +|Select the channel to apply the effect to| |
 +|On the Bus Sends area, select the 13-16 bank by pressing the lowest button \\ Note: 9-12 is shown selected in the image|{{::bus_sends.jpg?300|}} |
 +|Adjust the Bus Sends 13 & 14 which are predefined with effects (14 has Reverb) - these are the 2 lower knobs| |
 +
 +Note: add a Mute button to Bus Sends Ch 13 & Ch 14 to switch off effect, by:
 +
 +  * Select "Bus Master"
 +  * Select "Mute Group"
 +  * Press and hold a Mute button, say "5" and then select Ch 13 & Ch 14
 +  * Unselect the "Mute Group" button
