There is no Input Meter on the small channel displays. The black bars just show you the value of the function you’re setting with the rotary beneath the channel screen (Gain, Pan, Custom 1&2).
There are only the 4 LEDs beneath every rotary potentiometer for input metering.2018/04/10 at 8:43 pm #70320Hey,
I think you’ve got a patching issue.
Panning “only” goes to 37 here too but works as expected.How’s your setup? You’re routing through some groups and matrix busses?!
2018/03/05 at 1:26 pm #69359that you can not connect one AB to the dSnake port, only 2
Since we have only one AB168 I can confirm it works really fine with only one.
2018/02/12 at 9:56 pm #68878Hi,
I didn’t see any document so far but there are some pictures here in the forum.
It’s not that hard: turn the desk upside down and go for it. There are a lot of screws but nothing complicated. It becomes a bit more tricky if you want to open it all the way but maybe it’s already enough for you to open just the bottom.My advice: install airfilters after you have cleaned everything. I have one outside of the power supply which I can change/clean without opening the desk.
2018/02/02 at 8:14 pm #68638Since it’s not described explicitly I’d like to aks if it’s theoretically possible to run also the Expander port through a VLAN? Or is it using a hugely different protocol than dSnake?
A friend of mine is having problems when connecting an AB1608 through a VLAN to an AR2412 and then through another VLAN to the GLD. But it works fine with only the AR2412 connected or when using direct connections without Switches.2018/01/15 at 1:06 pm #68249What kind of cable tester do you have? Just a cheap continuity tester or some expensive one showing you quality of cable?
What kind of connectors does the patchbay and ports on stage have? Normal RJ45 or Ethercons?
Can you perform a “speed test” on your connection from FoH to stage with no devices attached?I am using Neutrik Ethercon Cat6a for cables, patchbays and so on plus mostly Cat7 cables and had no troubles so far with the GLD.
But I run into troubles when using normal RJ45-connectors for use with our HDMI extenders (which have no Ethercon) – they clearly have a mechanical problem which leads to dropouts when moving but sometimes also without movement. So it seems the bandwith/quality is just a little bit to low when not plugged in correctly. A cheap continuity tester can’t find that problem.Maybe dSnake protocol uses less bandwith when using only two channels for your iPod but increases when having multiple microphones. And then the quality of the connection is just to low.
2017/09/12 at 12:48 pm #65224Could be a ground loop.
Does your video camera runs on battery or wired power connection? If it’s wired, does your camera and GLD share the same electric circuit?Or it could be a problem with pin assignment. Are you shure your camera has a stereo input or is it symmetrical mono via mini jack?
2017/06/16 at 10:38 am #63916Well, maybe we all could support the developer of the app “Mixing Station” so he can make a GLD-Version of his app?! Since it’s using MIDI there can only be one Android-Device connected, so it’s not capable of individual monitor mix for every musician – but it would be more than nothing for audio engineers.
2017/06/10 at 4:02 pm #63807Hey,
as far as I understand this won’t work because it’s no PtP-Connection. With your setup there will be three devices in one LAN but only two are allowed.
What you could do: use 2 unmanaged Switches. To every location, where you would like to place your AB168s, you have to install 2x Network Cables – one connected to Switch1, one to Switch2.
Then you connect Switch1 to dSnake GLD and at a location of your choice you connect your first AB168 dSnake also to this switch.
And then you connect expander port of first AB168 to the second network cable which runs to Switch2 and at second location you connect second AB also to Switch2.Instead of two Switches you could use one big managed switch and use VLANs (port based would be sufficient).
Or if you don’t wan’t to install two cables to every location you would need a big central managed switch with VLAN tagging (IEEE 802.1Q) and a small managed switch at every location and use VLAN Trunks.I’d use first solution because it’s easiest one and you have nothing to manage/configurate – so it’s most failsafe.
2017/01/18 at 10:52 pm #60693I would pay for an Android App and OSC-Support.
Along with some more Softkey-Functions and flexible Mono-/Stereo-Channels it would be easy money for A&H 😉
More RTA-functionality would be nice to have – but nothing I would pay for if it would be the only new feature I would use.2016/12/22 at 11:08 am #60014Do you have same ground for GLD and computer? What’s your recording setup?
2016/08/16 at 7:01 am #57661Please keep in mind your stream will sound different since the listener of this stream does not have your PA and concert hall. But it should sound the same when listening Master and Aux Out with your headphones (if Aux levels are the same like Master levels).
Please tell what you have done in detail?! How did you set up your aux? Is it pre- or post-Fader, all channels same/different level, … ? Because I don’t really see the problem and my first thought was “just hit the Mix button of your Aux master”. But hopefully you already know this key element of using a GLD.
2016/07/30 at 8:41 am #57449Good luck!
And one last hint: there is a good description of the several Main Mix types in the Touch Screen Reference Guide.
2016/07/30 at 8:23 am #57448It seems to be a proprietary Protocol of A&H. There exists a “A&H TCP MIDI DRIVER V1.0 INSTALLER FOR MAC” you can find in software download section of GLD on A&H website. But on same site there is the hint “Please note that Windows PC drivers are currently not available.”
2016/07/29 at 6:50 pm #57440Yes, sure!
There are different ways.
As already mentioned you could use an Aux Bus so you can adjust levels only for recording/livestream.
You can send Main to a Mono Matrix Bus and patch this Matrix Bus to every analog Output you want.
Or you just use LR+Msum configuration. There is even a dedicated LRM show template for this.For Stereo you also can patch Main Output more than one time.
