Feature AR-2412

Input sockets 24 balanced XLR inputs for microphone and line level sources.

• The preamps are built into the AR2412 rack and their Gain, Pad and 48V phantom power is remote controlled from the GLD console via the dSNAKE link.
• The output of the analogue preamps are converted to digital format and transported via dSNAKE to be processed and mixed at the GLD-80 mixer.
• Any input can be patched to any channel at the console.

Output sockets 12 balanced XLR outputs operating at nominal +4dBu line level.

• Any GLD signal can be patched to any socket using the console I/O screen.
• The default Template Shows provide a logical mapping of these sockets to get you started.

EXPANDER

• Port Cat5 cable link to connect a GLD-AR84 expander rack to add a further 8 mic/line inputs and 4 XLR line outputs.
• The GLD system numbers these sockets as Inputs 25-32 and Outputs 13-16.
• MONITOR port Cat5 cable link to connect to a personal monitor system.

• dSNAKE port Cat5 cable link to connect the AR2412 rack to the GLD-80 mixer.
• This carries the 32 inputs, 16 outputs and the monitor port sends audio to and from the rack as well as control for the preamps and system status.
• Maximum Cat5 cable length is 120m. depending on cable type.

Fan

• A low noise fan ensures air movement through the rack to keep the circuits within operating temperature range.

Mains power input

• IEC connector, fuse and power ON/OFF push switch for the built-in universal voltage power supply unit.
• This accepts worldwide voltages from 100 to 240V AC 50/60Hz.
• Check that you have received the correct mains lead for your territory.
