OpenX32 Beta 2026_06_05 - Development Build

• Contains OpenMixerControl 0.3.0
• Many improvements since last Release like working Solo, DCA, Mute Groups, ...

Mapping of Buttons, Encoders, Faders

We don't have all the devices to test, so thanks for testing and mapping 🚀

• X32 Producer by @fortless
• M32R by @niklasarnitz

Known Issues

• Behringer X32 Full: Assign Section doesn't work
• Midas M32: ist not keymapped (no fader, button or encoder works)
• AES50 is working only on Port A on the Lattice-FPGA-versions in combination with a connected WING or stageboxes based on Lattice-FPGAs. Stageboxes based on Xilinx-FPGAs will work only after a very long time as there is some kind of timing-issue. The Xilinx-version of the X32 is not working yet.

How to use this software

1. Download and copy the file dcp_corefs_openx32_beta_2026_06_05.run to an USB thumbdrive
2. Plug the USB thumbdrive into any X32 or M32R, hold the USB-View-Button and power it on
3. Linux will boot after the file-integrity has been checked by the original DCP-Bootloader
4. After a couple of seconds the OpenX32 GUI will start automatically after uploading the bitstreams to the FPGA and the two DSPs
5. Connect a microphone to XLR input 1-32 or any AUX-input and some loudspeakers to control-room outputs
6. Use regular channel-faders and main-fader to control volume

The effect-slots 1-4 are routed to channels 1-4 by default as post-fader. So you can test the DSP-effects very easy.

How to get back to the original system?

If you start the system using the *.run file, you just have to power-cycle the device to get back to the original firmware. No files are changed on the internal SD-Card. If you renamed the file to *.update and performed a firmware-update, you can simply install the original firmware using the regular update-files from Behringer to get back to the firmware.

Features

• Almost all basic audio-mixing-functions are working now
• several nice effects are availble:
  • Reverb
  • TransientShaper
  • Delay
  • Chorus
  • Neural-Network-DeFeedback
  • Overdrive
  • Stereo-to-5.1 Matrix-Upmixer
• SSH: You can login to the Linux-shell by using ssh and the password "openx32". The IP-address can be found in the SETUP page
• VNC is supported to connect to the framebuffer of Linux (start /openx32/framebuffer-vncserver via SSH)
• More effects (DynamicEQ and Multiband-Compression) are prepared and already working, but do not fit into the DSP yet. We are working on this

Outlook

Try it out and enjoy this cool device from a totally different point of view. These files will not change anything on the SD-card or the general hardware so a simple power-cycle is enough to bring back the original operating system. Perhaps you would like to participate in this project - now that the general system is up and running, lots of great things could be done with this device.

This open-source version of the X32 includes about 55% (or maybe 65%) of the features of the original firmware. Think of it primarily as a way to better understand complex digital audio systems. Feel free to create an issue here on GitHub if you have ideas or feedback.
