The Behringer X32's expansion capabilities reach new heights with the X-DANTE Expansion Card, a professional networking solution that replaces the standard X-USB card to unlock powerful IP-based audio connectivity. This 32-channel, 48 kHz bi-directional audio interface seamlessly integrates your X32 into Dante-enabled networks, utilising either standard 100Mbit/s or Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure with DSCP-based Quality of Service support.
Built for professional applications, the X-DANTE card maintains exceptional audio integrity through 24-bit signal transmission with sample-accurate synchronisation and minimal latency. The system supports mixed sample and bit rates operating simultaneously on the same network, whilst a secondary input provides redundant network capability for mission-critical installations. Full remote control remains accessible through the integrated Ethernet switch, giving you comprehensive management of your mixing console from anywhere on the network.
Configuration and routing become streamlined through Audinate's Dante Controller application, which provides complete control over all Dante-enabled devices in your setup. For recording applications, the Dante Virtual Soundcard software enables your PC or Mac to function as an Ethernet-based recording interface, supporting up to 64 channels of multitrack recording and playback directly from your preferred DAW. This makes the X-DANTE card particularly valuable for large venue installations including convention centres, churches, and concert halls where reliable, scalable audio networking is essential.
