+1 We would be interested in a rackmountable GLD system. For conferences, auctions, rehearsal PA or tour backup, a rack GLD processor with iPad interface would be perfect. If it had 2-4 expander ports for AR84 expanders, it would also provide flexibility for multiple-room installations. Essentially, we’re big fans of A&H and are interested in a product comparable to the Behringer x32 rack/core.

I imagine this system makes more sense in the Qu series, since it goes head-to-head with the x32 rack. It would be important to us to have full routing control of a rack processor + stagebox system. This feature seems to push the product into the GLD line.

GLD80 is back from the dealer. It is now updated to v1.30 and seems to be functioning correctly. I’ll put it through a few tests in the shop this week before I send it out. From what I hear, the dealer had to Skype with Britain to troubleshoot/reset the console issues and update the firmware. Really thankful for their work over at Pro Sound & Lighting.

Apparently the core log showed some anomalies that A&H will need to analyze. I’m looking forward to learning from this ordeal… whether it was user error or system failure. My confidence in the brand was rattled a bit, but I am very impressed with how they handled the situation and my dealer’s service. Makes our work so much easier to have that kind of support.

I will update this thread if I hear any news about the core log.

It’s been at the dealer for 2 days now. They were great about expediting the process and sending a request to A&H for a response…hopefully I hear back soon. Crossing my fingers and hoping this unit won’t need to be shipped to the factory. lost time = lost $

yeah, I’ll be taking a trip to my A&H dealer tomorrow and putting some calls in. I’ll keep everyone posted.

I have done both of those. Tried the WinZip for Mac software instead of the Apple Unzip software and am running into even more problems. Now the firmware update protocol isn’t showing up. The screen reads

10.564343] BUG: scheduling while atomic: Xorg/1026/0x00000002.

It keeps rebooting this code with no progress. Feeling a bit uneasy at the moment…

[dcongdonParticipant]

I’ll join the line. Have any extra goodies?
