Thanks for the suggestion. Just been looking at it, looks great - I'd love one for myself!

However, I'm looking for something with a 'virtual' desk, like the Ui16 only more channels.
Looked around the Behringer range, and wondered about the XR18? Not as many as I'd like, but
the price is good. The main spiel talks about control via iPad or Android, but I note in the
small print that it says PC, Mac or Linux. The Ui16 just needs a modern browser and runs well
with an old laptop running Linux/Firefox. The plan is to have the mixer and amps rack mounted in a
back room, with just a PC with Cat5 ethernet connection.

I'm still dithering about whether to stick with a traditional snake across to the performance
area, or maybe put the mixer near/on the stage.

I agree. The functionality for the price is very impressive.
I use two on a weekly basis and I know four organizations that have the  and are pleased.

Being able to plop a laptop next it, plug in the usb cable and record 32 channels into Ardour is really handy. (Hat tip to Paul ;) Or play cued music from LISP (Linux Show Player) or control a stage musical mutes, faders, etc. with Linux Show Control makes it very versatile.

behringer/midas X32 would be the obvious choice.

This is not really a Linux audio question, but I'm sure some of you will have suggestions
for the following:

I'm currently looking into providing the Audio system for our new church building which is
expected to be handed over soon. At present I'm using a Soundcraft Ui16 digital mixer, but
that only has 12 real inputs. I'm thinking ahead and would like something similar but with
twice (or more) as many inputs.

Any suggestions welcomed,

Many thanks

Bill
