R.E Best wireless A/P, it depends…
We’ve dropped multicast support, so the UDP metering should be handled fine by most access points in a single iPad environment with good wifi coverage.
Where things get tricky are in a multi iPad setup with poor wifi coverage. We’ve seen almost every A/P on the market have problems in this scenario. They stop pushing any traffic at all while a single client is out of range, and this can cause issues for the other ipad’s which are still in range.
The exception to this is the Cisco A/P we recommend – have a look on the iLive downloads page. Yes its expensive, but it also works where others do not !
So I guess it depends on your setup and the demand you’re placing on the A/P.
Hope this helps.

A&HSo what you are saying is that it realy doesn’t matter wich AP you use in a multi Ipad enviorment, because if one is out of range, the whole system will slow down ?
On Ilive this could be avoided using multicast, but this isn’t possible anymore on the GLD ?
So basicly…. If i would use more than one IPad, and one goes out of range, the other IPad is going to give problems two ?
Would this also effect the GLD surfice, as is noted in the Ilive notes of the AP selection document?
GLD all the way

I think the idea is that the Aviom output module essentially gives you another 16 output sockets.
The way it works if I understand correctly is that you take the 16 direct outs (or auxes or any combination of the two) you want available in your IEMs and route them out of your monitor cat5 port. The Aviom output module then breaks them out into 16 analog signals that plug into the Behringer system.
In principle there’s probably some sort of Dante-to-analog converter that would do something similar, though that’s purely a guess on my part.
Exactly!
You get an additional 16 outputs which can be freely assigned.
I use 8 stereo auxes. But if i need to free more mixes, than i change it to 8 mono. I send the auxes to output 1,3,5,7,9,11,13 and 15, and i create a overall monitor mix and assign them to 2,4,6,8,10,12,14 and 16. change the beltpacks to mono, and the balance button on the beltpack becomes the balance between the overall mix and private aux.
With the AR84 you only get 4 additional outputs instead of the 16 with an aviom. Could come in handy for analog recording or loads of other things.
And by the way, please have a look at second hand aviom modules
I bought mine for $400. (please be aware that you need a new version of the output modue. You can contact aviom or AH to verify it wil. I have a V4 and works like a charm!)GLD all the way
I have a tip for you.
I have 8 Stereo Sennheiser IEM sets mounted in a rack. I bought an Aviom AN-16/o (16 chanel output module) and added this to the rack.
Connected the 16 outputs to the IEM’s and now I just need to plug in one cat5 cable from the monitor port of the AR rack to my IEM rack and thats it!
Super easy super fast!

The only thing we have to wait for now is the firmware update which will enable all these functions.
Hopefully A&H will publish an update on the TCP/IP commands as well. So that we can write our own interfaces for this great mixer.
Curious what other changes will be made in the FW update….

Please advise if there ever will be made an iPad app.
If not, i can start developing one myself.
But please A&H, be clear on this and give us some clarity!

All the mix busses and outputs have their own chanel strip with EQ. Most of them have even a 31 band graphic EQ on it.
What exactly do you want to send to the monitor (aux) output?

Hello ahjeff,
Thank you for the confirmation!
I have upgraded the firmware in my GLD last week. I’m going to confirm the update one more, and if it realy is the latest in the GLD and in the AR2412 i will send the aviom module for repair.
GLD all the way
Update:
Adding 18pF between Hot and shield did not result in any sound quality imporovement. Still searching for someones AN-16/i to borrow….
GLD all the way
I will try this today. Adding 18pF between the hot and shielding.
I forgot to mention that I also connected the Aviom AN-16/o ooutputs to another input on the AR2412 rack. I used the RTA tool to sweep a sine trough the aux output and back into the mixer. I saw harmonics being created when the sine frequency was abode 1K.
I’m looking for someone with an AN-16/i to see if the output module is defect, or if it is a GLD “Bug”. No luck finding someone yet…

I have a first generation aviom an-16/o output module mounted in my IEM transmitter rack together with 7 Sennheiser IEM G2.
This should be the perfect solution to connect these IEM’s to the GLD system.
The only problem I encounter is that the aviom an-16/o output module gives a very distorted sound.
Is this maybe an (unknown) bug ?
I’m trying to swat the output module with another one to confirm if this has to do something with the GLD or the output module. I will place an update as soon as I have one.GLD all the way
Did anyone find a suitable work around for this ?
Can anyone get a softbutton to change to the next scene ?
