New GLD Replacement

[Scott]

Any hints as to whether or not we’ll be seeing a new replacement for GLD, perhaps at Infocomm 2019? I’m holding off on an SQ because I’m hoping for a new GLD replacement soon. A 19″ frame size would be great too along with the larger frame sizes that are presently available.

GLD MkII wishlist: Additions/changes to what is presently available in the current model…
– 96kHz
– 64in, 32out
– DEEP plugins w/dLive compressor models
– Ducker
– 6 layers per bank
– DCA spills

The SQ is nice, but I don’t really care for the workflow as much, nor the high fader density compared to GLD/dLive. Personally I like the individual mix buttons per channel strip a lot better than the mix keys found on Qu/SQ.

Some things that pop in my mind:

– More buses, not necessarily with a physical output. I do not have sufficient buses for groups due to the large amount of stereo aux I need for IEM.
– “Real” stereo input channels instead of ganging. With ganging I cannot perform simple panning of a keyboard unless I route the left and right input channels to a stereo group. Also the gain of the left and right input channels must be linkable.
– Playlist and a shuffle function for the audio player. A simple music library function would also be welcome.
– Headphone socket at the bottom right corner
– More intuitive menu structure. For example: audio player is now in setup.

I’m going to chime in with the following features.

– built in Audinate support please. Buying an M-Dante card is very costly.
– native support for audio streaming over USB or firewire. Consoles costing have the price have this as a standard feature.
