Behringer X AIR XR16 Manuel Du Propriétaire

X AIR User Manual

The X AIR applications for iOS, Android and Mac/Win/Linux allow all of the 

physical controls and features normally found on analog mixers to be adjusted 

digitally, and also allow effects and routing to be fully adjusted, all from a remote 

location away from the input box. This results in a very compact, yet full-featured 

mixing solution that can be operated while moving about the venue or studio. 

This chapter will discuss the software’s functionality on an Android device.

The Main View screen provides access to all 16 channel faders, Aux in, and FX and 

bus levels, as well as navigation to preamp controls, meters, FX slots and more.

1.  The Channel Strip gives quick reference to the status of various preamp 

settings, and allows access to Gate, Dynamics, EQ, Pan and Input controls.

2.  Touch a channel’s Solo button to send the channel to the solo bus. The corner 

of the button will light yellow to indicate that a channel has been soloed.

3.  Each channel has a dedicated meter to monitor the input level. If the meter 

reaches the red clip lights, lower the gain control on the Input screen.

4.  The Channel Fader adjusts a channel’s level, or adjusts the aux/FX/bus send 

level, depending on which layer is selected on the right-hand side.

5.  Touch a channel’s Mute button to mute the channel. The button will light red 

when muted.

6.  Access the Meters, Effect Rack, Snapshots, Show/Scene, Routing and Setup 

pages by touching these buttons.

7.  Engaging the Fine button causes the faders to be adjusted in smaller 

increments, allowing more precise control.

8.  Select a channel bank 1-8 or 9-16 with these buttons.
9.  Access the Mute Group edit screen by pressing the Mutes button:

Engage the Mute Lock button to prevent accidental muting of individual channels. 

Mute All and Unmute All are quick ways to fully mute or unmute all sources. Tap one 

of the 4 Mute Group buttons to mute the channels assigned to that group, and hold 

one of the buttons to edit which channels are assigned to the group.

10.  Access the Aux and FX return faders with this button.
11.  Activate the Sends on Faders function with this button. When active, 

the faders control the bus send levels for the currently active bus 

(see callout 13). Moving between the channel and Aux/FX layers allows the 

sends for those layers to be adjusted as well.

12.  Access the bus master faders with this button. Note that these will not be 

visible when the Sends on Faders function is active.

13.  When using the Sends on Faders function, the bus to which the channel 

signals are sent is selected with the button directly below the Sends on 

Faders button. Pressing the Bus Master button will allow the send level for 

the selected bus to be adjusted.

14.  Access the FX Send and Main LR faders with this button.

The Input section allows adjustment of the most common preamp parameters 

such as gain, phase and phantom power. This is accessed from the Main View 

screen by pressing just above the Solo button in the channel strip area. By 

default, each channel will have a generic name such as “Ch 01” or “Bus 1”, but this 

can be customized in this section.

1.  Touch this top button to access the Scribble Strip page where a custom name 

and color can be selected.

2.  Adjust the Pan by touching this button.
3.  The on/off status and basic parameters for several preamp features can be 

adjusted on this page. To edit in detail, press Config, Gate, EQ, etc.

4.  Many preamp functions have factory settings that can be accessed from the 

folder icon.

5.  Current settings can be saved for later recall.
6.  Press this button to copy the current settings.
7.  Press this button to paste the recently-copied settings from one channel 

to another.

8.  Skip to the previous or next channel with the arrow buttons.
