Midas M32R Live and Studio 40-channel Digital Mixer

The best of classic digital consoles

The M32R utilises award-winning Midas PRO Series microphone preamplifiers and the custom-designed Midas PRO motorised faders that are rated for 1 million life cycles-three times more than other leading consoles. The Midas M32R is a future-forward console that completely raises the bar for live mixing.

Industry-Leading 192 kHz Precision
The groundbreaking M32R console combines legendary Midas sound quality with advanced digital technology, future-proof floating point audio engine, extremely low-latency design and industry-leading 192 kHz ADC and DAC converters, creating a revolutionary mid-format live console.

The M32R features ultra-sleek styling, offering you a truly luxurious mixing experience. High-end construction materials including carbon fibre provide unparalleled durability and strength, plus substantially lower weight than comparable consoles.

Legendary MIDAS Sound Quality
While the Midas M32R design, styling, and construction will surely turn a lot of heads, it’s the sound that matters most to engineers and performing artists. This rack-mountable digital desktop mixing console stems from a long line of pristine-sounding Midas consoles that began as far as 40 years ago. Producing music for artists like Billy Joel, Yes, The Beach Boys, Pink Floyd and others, the Midas legacy has always been about uncompromising quality and the ultimate in sound reproduction.

Backing the analogue input section are audiophile Cirrus Logic multi-channel 192 kHz capable A/D converters, which boast a 114 dB dynamic range, ensuring impressively low distortion and low noise performance.

Elegant, Innovative Design
Midas teamed up with Rajesh Kutty industrial designer for Bentley Motors to create an entirely new form factor for the M32 and M32R. The result is an impressive combination of usability and ergonomics. The M32R layout gives you fast access to the most-used mixing controls, with intuitive paths to deeper functions and parameters.

You'll also notice that the M32R feels lightweight considering its robust aluminium and steel structure. The carbon fibre components create a strong sub-frame which reduces overall weight.

Why a future-forward console
The brilliance of the M32R is its simplicity and workflow. Tactile controls allow smooth adjustments to critical elements as the mix progresses while the TFT screen keeps you informed every step of the way. This integration of tactile controls, motorised faders and the array of LCD and TFT displays make the M32R experience the premiere solution for Live Sound, Broadcast, Studio Recording and Post Production applications.
