Behringer P24 Hub Stageconnect Hub for Personal Monitor Mixers

Having a dedicated monitor mix engineer can be expensive and running monitor mixing from FOH can be too demanding-- neither of these is ideal. What if every musician could create their personal monitor mix with a small dedicated mixer on-stage? That's what Personal Monitoring is all about! Save time and energy by giving the control to the musicians! Personal monitors also allow for built-in effects, improving sound; built-in microphones, improving both communication and immersion; All controlled with a simplified user interface.

No matter if you're using a single P24 to provide an artist's mix in your studio recording room, or you're deploying a large setup for an orchestra pit with several daisy-chained P24HUBs-- setup and configuration is always a breeze. The P24HUB is the obvious choice for larger setups especially in touring applications. However, several P24 personal mixers can be daisy-chained without a hub. This is ideal when supporting smaller impromptu gigs. For the most robust performance and longest cable runs, using high-quality DMX cabling is recommended. For short connections, standard XLR cables can be used. As there is no capacitance standard for microphone cables, range performance can vary substantially. Investing in high-quality DMX cables helps P24 perform best.

P24HUB can be fed audio from 4 source connections; AES50 25-48: 12 stereo groups as well as channel strip labelling for all P24 mixers, AES50 33-48: 8 mono and 4 stereo groups as well as channel strip labelling for all P24 mixers, StageConnect: 12 stereo groups as well as channel strip labelling for all P24 mixers, and Ultranet: 8 mono and 4 stereo groups. P24HUB is compatible across a wide variety of Behringer and Midas digital mixers. From using Ultranet with the Behringer XR18 digital mixer, to StageConnect with Behringer WING. P24HUB even includes a 96k-to-48k converter over AES50 for high-end console usage.

P24HUB's 8 pairs of balanced stereo outputs allow for up to 8 sets of wireless IEMs. For a cleaner workstation, P24HUB can be the controller for all wireless IEMs. Both the hub and the IEM transmitters can be stored in a separate side rack If talent on-stage are all using wired headphones or IEMs, the 16 balanced outputs can be used to drive supplemental loudspeakers and amplifiers. P24HUB allows for up to 4 P24's connected directly. Each P24 mixer can also have a second P24 daisy-chained for a total of 8 personal mixers per P24HUB. Using the P24HUB can also output each of the personal mixes on each of the 16 analogue TRS out. Daisy-chaining P24 mixers without a P24HUB is also possible, however every other mixer will need their own DC power supply.

Integrating P24HUB into your rack unit is extremely easy and its compact 1U form-factor makes installation and integration a breeze. P24HUB's chassis is engineered to be durable for life on the road. The P24HUB can live in the same side rack as all wireless IEM transmitters, with everything pre-wired and organized. The included auto-switching power supply allows for worldwide tour usage. Communication between engineers and on-stage talent is vital for a smooth performance. With P24HUB's StageTalk intercom system, individual channels for FOH, stage technicians and musicians can all communicate cohesively. Using the two 4.2 outputs for talkback signal, engineers can set up a wedge or headphone amp for monitoring as well.
