![]() ![]() Every mono input has individual XLR or TRS line inputs (which interrupt the XLR) and an insert point, and there are three additional stereo inputs (two aux inputs on balanced jacks and a 'tape' input using unbalanced RCA phono sockets) that are controlled from the main surface. There is no internal routing or mapping to worry about (other than four output sub-groups), as input socket 1 is always connected to mixer channel 1, controlled by fader 1, and so on. The back-panel layout is, however, neat and clear, and connecting inputs and outputs is simple. My only complaint here is that the aux outputs are on balanced TRS jacks, not XLRs, which means that I'd have to use adapter tails or converters on my monitor returns - and as I rarely use more than six foldback mixes for live shows I'd really prefer a few XLRs on the panel, even at the cost of losing a few physical aux outputs on the console. The three AI models provide a generous and useful number of aux outputs too: no fewer than 14 of them on the 32 channel version. In terms of overall format, the StudioLive AI has 32 mono input channels assignable to four sub-groups and/or a stereo master out, all accessed by XLR connectors on the rear panel.
