Mixing Station tips/tricks
Working on dialing in a show file build for a show in Mixing Station with an X-Touch Extender, using a Soundcraft ui24r, for a local show. It’s overkill for the small venue the show is going to, but it’s a show with friends and I have the gear to make it happen, so why not?
For those running mixing station with a physical control surface, what are some buttons or controls you’ve programmed that have been helpful in speeding up your workflow? Coming from working on Yamaha or Avid desks, it’s been fun to find ways to make the tiny surface do a lot of different tasks. Currently lots of navigation functions, tap tempo, and controlling the console’s multitrack recording on the controller.

I set up a custom layout with monitor sends down one side. Nice and fast when I have to set up mons and run them from FOH.
