Serious power, serious mixing

The largest model in the StudioLive Series III SE range, the Presonus StudioLive Series III SE 32 offers a full 40-channel mix engine with 32 XMAX-Remote mic preamps and 33 fully recallable, touch-sensitive motorised faders in a robust, portable chassis. Designed for live engineers, AV technicians, and hybrid production setups, it matches the pristine audio quality and feature set of its Series III SE siblings, including the acclaimed Fat Channel signal processing with studio-grade EQ and dynamics on every input and bus. AVB audio networking, direct multitrack recording to SD card or computer, and seamless remote control via PreSonus Studio One and Universal Control make the SE 32 equally at home as a front-of-house console, a broadcast hub, or a DAW control surface in the studio.

High-end processing and bus count

With 26 mix buses in total, the Presonus StudioLive Series III SE 32 provides a wealth of routing options for monitors, subgroups, and effects. Every input and bus features a Fat Channel strip – high-end EQ, gate, compressor, and limiter – powered by the dual-core FLEX DSP engine. Its 40-channel mix engine and 32 XMAX-Remote mic preamps provide ample headroom, while AVB networking enables scalable inputs and outputs via NSB stageboxes and EarMix personal mixers. Performances can be recorded directly to SD card for standalone capture, or via USB to a computer for full DAW integration. Flexible patching, per-channel USB/AVB returns, and scene/project recall enable rapid changeovers between different setups, while the extensive I/O includes stereo aux inputs, 16 analogue mix outputs including subgroup outs, and dual headphone jacks, making it a capable hub in any setting.

Presonus StudioLive Series III SE 32, Detail

Tailored for demanding workflows

Not only is the Presonus StudioLive Series III SE 32 technically capable, it is also a true workhorse adaptable to any production environment, professional or semi-professional, from live sound to broadcast, streaming, or hybrid setups. Its combination of flexible routing, studio-grade processing, and scalable AVB networking is ideal for fixed venues, touring rigs, and multi-room installations alike. Portable and rackmountable, it suits location work, while its recallable settings and intuitive workflow allow operation by less-experienced staff, including volunteers. Seamless integration with Studio One and Universal Control ensures it adapts to both live performance and studio work, while AVB-connected EarMix personal mixers give performers customised in-ear monitoring on stage, with the console serving as a dedicated IEM controller.

About Presonus

Presonus is a US company founded in 1995 by Jim Odom and Brian Smith in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The firm designs hardware and software at both professional and more affordable levels for musicians and producers. Presonus first made a splash in the mid-1990s with the DCP8, an eight-channel analogue compressor/limiter/gate with fader and mute automation that could be digitally controlled by MIDI. In the early 2000s followed a series of microphone amplifiers and the first audio interfaces for the then-emerging home studio scene. Today, the company's product range includes audio interfaces, microphone preamps, digital mixing consoles, and studio monitors as well as the established DAW software Studio One.

Real-world applications

The Presonus StudioLive Series III SE 32 works equally well as a standalone digital console, an AVB stagebox controller, or a DAW control surface for production workflows. In a small, mid-sized, or large venue, it can provide front-of-house (FOH) and monitor mixes while recording every channel direct to SD card for later mixing. In a broadcast or streaming setup, its integrated multiband processing and effects reduce the need for outboard gear. Touring musicians can pair it with NSB stageboxes for minimal cabling and streamlined routing, while EarMix units let each performer customise their IEM returns. Remote control from tablets, smartphones, or computers enables PA tuning from the audience position, monitor adjustments side-stage, and configuration of complex setups from a control room.

In the spotlight

Fat Channel processing

Central to the Presonus StudioLive Series III SE 32 is Fat Channel processing, a pristine digital channel strip that provides powerful sound-shaping tools on every input and bus. Studio-grade EQ, gating, compression, and limiting are complemented by meticulously modelled emulations of sought-after analogue processors, all powered by the dual-core FLEX DSP engine, bringing classic studio character to live sound, broadcast, and recording applications. All settings are fully recallable, providing instant access to pre-recorded configurations for different performers and setups. AVB networking and Universal Control software ensure consistent, perfectly controlled mixes in any production setup.
