Mixer Configuration

Use the Config page if you need to re-configure the architecture of the 32 Mix and FX buses and the 20 Mix Outputs available from the GLD system.

Choose any combination of:

• Mono or stereo Groups
• Mono or stereo FX sends
• Mono or stereo Auxes
• Mono or stereo Matrix
• Main mix type

Main Mix types - Choose one of 5 types:

None - No main mix, for example dedicated monitor mixing with a large number of Aux mixes (up to 20).

LR - Standard stereo main mix with single master fader. A Balance control is provided using the strip rotary to adjust the relative Left and Right level.

LR+Msum - A stereo main mix with additional output which is the mono sum of the pre-fade, pre-processed LR mix. For example to feed a mono delay speaker or zone.

LR+M - A 3-way main mix with independent stereo LR and mono M buses. Channels can be separately assigned to any combination of LR and M. Typical application for M is main centre speaker, mono PA or bus-fed sub bass.

LCR – A 3-way main mix with true LCR panning. Each channel can be panned from left, through centre to right. At mid pan, full signal is fed to M and none L and R. Stereo channels feed the LR mix only.

The window on the right displays the number of buses and mix outputs remaining and warns if you exceed the maximum.

Touch Apply to accept the changes or Cancel without changing the configuration.

GLD automatically stores the current settings before changing the configuration and recalls them after it has completed. You may notice the faders move briefly during this process.

Note In most cases it should not be necessary to change the mix configuration as the Template Shows provide enough mixes to satisfy most applications.

Note Mix configuration re-assigns the DSP architecture and resets mix parameters. The changes if needed should be done before, not during a show.
