I think you can download the computer side for free. In other words, if = the X32 already has Dante, then you can configure the 32 channels and = tune in on your computer without buying a special interface (unless your = computer is a laptop without ethernet, in which case you=E2=80=99ll need = to buy an ethernet adapter). I wrote the Dante firmware for the Mackie DL32R, DC16 and related Axis = products. The Dante card is an option on the DL32R, so it does cost = extra. On the DC16, it=E2=80=99s standard, but there are only a handful = of channels for the control surface. I=E2=80=99m not familiar with the = Behringer X32 options versus standard features. Brian p.s. You=E2=80=99ll note that the reliable USB extender cables actually = convert the data to something other than USB so that it can be = transmitted over long distances. Once you=E2=80=99re stuck converted to = another electrical format, you might as well just ditch the USB.

Forget = about USB, because it was only designed to support short cables. If you = use a standard that supports Ethernet, you won=E2=80=99t have to worry = about the length of the cables. >>=20 >> Brian >>=20 >>=20 >> On Oct 17, 2019, at 12:33 PM, Boniforti Flavio = <xxxxxxxxx.x@xxxxx.xxx> wrote: >> > Hi all - I know it's nothing analogue here, but maybe some of you = can help... >> >=20 >> > I am thinking of moving the PC I use for recording my stuff from = the X32 to the opposite side of the studio. I need a longer USB cable, = but AFAIK the max. USB 2.0 cable length is limited to 5m and this is for = sure not enough. >> >=20 >> > Any thoughts?
