Reply To: GLD – USB Expansion Card

[dcongdon]

None taken. I asked for thoughts from the forum. I think we agree that having virtual soundcheck is only a tool… not a replacement for engineering fundamentals. I’m simply requesting a feature found on A&H’s QU mixers to be brought up to the larger GLD in the form of an expansion card. When our industry is in an arms-race for features…this expansion card seems like a reasonable request. It doesn’t change the exceptional quality of the GLD series. It does improve its marketability.

For our part, we find virtual soundcheck to be useful for fine-tuning scenes/show files, increasing efficiency during small festival setup, and product demonstration for potential buyers of the GLD (or training H.O.W. volunteers). When we have clients moving from studiolives or x32s, this feature makes the GLD an easy transition.
