Excellent ! I am sure that you will be pleased. Here are some suggestions: 1) Make sure that you update the firmware on the board, if it is not already updated to the latest and greatest. 2) Consider hanging out on the Soundcraft Expression Facebook page. There are many Expression users...

I have used both and personally like the Soundcraft Expression 3. With a Mini stage box 32 and a MADI-USB card you have a digital snake and can record 32 channels via USB. While the X32 has more features for the dollar, the workflow is not intuitive. The high and low shelf eq has not been an...

Soundcraft finally is selling a solution that allows using a stage box and recording: The MADI USB card (MSRP $299). I purchased one to use with my Si Expression 3 and my CAT5 Mini Stagebox 32. I can now use my Mini Stagebox 32 via the MADI CAT 5 digital snake and record to my laptop via USB...

Post here which board you have (as well as your whole setup) and we can make better recommendations.

I heard recently from the Facebook Soundcraft Si Expression forum that they will not be making a Dante HD card for the Mini Stagebox..... Bummer. But there is something in the works. If I had to guess it would be a MADI card + Firewire or USB for recording.

Rent a QSC KW 181 powered sub if it is available. This is an excellent powered sub.

I use the Sennheiser Wireless Systems Manager with my EW 300 G3 IEMs and it does a great job of identifying low interference frequencies. I don't know if it it works with wireless mics though.

Dave Rat has some great advice on his videos...

The software is version 1.5 Buikd 0008 and located here: Soundcraft - [Products]

I believe that Soundcraft just released a new version of software for the Si Expression. The release note mention saving and loading queues instead of whole shows. I have not tried this, but it look like it may be a more attractive solution.

That board looks great! I especially like the 18 channel direct to USB recording. Certainly cuts down on carrying extra gear to record.

Presonus has too many competitors who have products at more reasonable prices... I really like the features of the X32, but just could not do it... I ended up getting the Soundcraft Si Expression 3 (my first digital board) and I am having a blast learning about its capabilities.

That is a valuable piece of advice! I recently upgraded to a Soundcraft Si Expression 3 (my first digital board) and was initially overwhelmed with the features. I have since applied this advice and focused upon what I know first... then experiment with one new feature at a time and get to...
