Show Manager

Use this page to store, recall and transfer Show memories.

A Show memory stores the complete GLD setup. This includes:

• Mix configuration
• User preferences
• All Scene memories
• All Libraries

Note User Profiles and passwords are not stored in Show memories.

Shows are stored in the GLD surface and can be transferred between GLD systems or archived on computer via USB key. User Shows can be overwritten, renamed or deleted.

Show List - The left hand window lists Shows stored in the GLD, the right hand window lists Shows stored on the USB key if one is plugged in and recognised by the GLD.

Template Shows - These are Factory Shows that provide a quick starting point by giving you a familiar layout and classic mix architecture with typical option settings. Several Templates are available for popular live mixing applications, for example FOH and Monitor. Template Shows cannot be edited or deleted.

Refer to the end of this Help page to find out more about the Template Shows available.

User Shows - These are user defined Shows that store and recall your mix and settings. You could start by recalling a Template show, edit the way you want to work, and then save this as a User Show to give you your own 'template' for future recall. You can also archive settings for a particular band or performance to use again on a different GLD system.

To Recall a Show - Touch to highlight the Show you want to recall. Touch the Recall button. Touch Yes in the popup to confirm.

Note Recalling a show overwrites all system settings and also all Scenes and can change your mix architecture and patching. If you want to keep your current settings to use again in the future first archive them as a User Show.

Note A Show can take a while to load. It is not intended for instant recall of band settings, theatre cues and so on. Use Scenes for those applications instead.

Note GLD Show files are not compatible with iLive.

Note GLD Shows are cleared during a power up System Reset. Shows are not cleared during a firmware update.

To Store a new Show - Touch the Store Show button. Type in a name using the keypad. Touch Apply. Touch OK in the popup to return to the Show list.

To overwrite an existing Show - Highlight the User Show you want to update and touch the Overwrite button. Touch Yes in the popup. Touch OK to return to the list.

To copy to/from a USB key - GLD stores its information in directories it creates in the root directory of the USB key. Highlight a Show in the GLD Shows list and touch Copy to USB to copy it to the key. To copy from USB to the GLD highlight a Show in the USB list and touch Copy to GLD. Wait a few moments to make sure the copy is complete before removing the key.

You do not need to 'dismount' the USB drive before removing it.

Factory Template Shows

The GLD has a fully configurable audio architecture, control layout and socket patching letting you customise the way you work. It would be a daunting task for the new user if we gave them a ‘blank canvas’ to start from scratch. Instead we have provided a set of ‘Template’ Show memories which give you a choice of classic console format to load in as a quick starting point. These present the familiar architecture and logical layout of well equipped analogue consoles. Once you are comfortable working with GLD you can make changes to your set up and save these as your own ‘User’ Shows.

A default show is already loaded when the GLD is shipped from the factory. This is Template1 LR.

Template Show settings are shown below. These include:

• SoftKey assignments are Scene Safe
• SoftKeys 1-8 = DCA mute 1-8
• SoftKey 9 = PAFL Clear All
• SoftKey 10 = FX4 tap tempo (FOH only)
• SoftKey 11-14 = Unassigned
• Scene Confirmation = On
• Global Direct Out = post-delay, pre-fade, post-mute
• Monitor Port = ME-1 mode
• I/O Port out = input socket 1-48
• PEQ = 20-20kHz, Curve Fill = On
• Talkback = Momentary, Dim off
• Template1 and 2 FOH - Auxes are post-PEQ, pre-fade
• Template3 Mon - Auxes are post-fade
• FX are post-fade (effects)
• USB playback assigned to CH47/48
• USB recording from LR via stereo Matrix1

• Scene 1 (repeated at Scene 499) = Reset GLD-80
• Scene 2 (repeated at Scene 500) = Reset GLD-112
• Scene 498 = Reset MIDI Strips (Filter blocks everything else)

The diagrams below show the strip layouts for the GLD80 mixer. The GLD112 has a similar master layout in its fader Bank 3, but with the inputs spread across fader Banks 1 and 2.
