Allen & Heath GL4800 - $695 - (Beaumont, TX)
The GL4800 can easily meet any live mixing requirement. A host of recessed mode switches quickly configure the console for FOH, monitor or monitors from FOH, with additional multitrack and stereo recording capability. As a monitor console, you get up to 16 mixes for wedges, IEM and side fills using the 10 auxes, 4 matrix and LR. No professional monitor console is complete without an engineer’s wedge output. The GL4800 provides this by switching AFL/PFL to the M fader, giving familiar control in the right place and with XLR drive. Recording a live show can be particularly challenging, but the GL4800 has many options to make this job easier. You can use the direct output with pre/post selection and level trim from each channel for multitracking. The unique pre/post selectable group output trim facility allows grouped signals to be fed pre the master fader so that changes to the mix do not affect the record levels, particularly useful when trying to record and mix noisy backlines. The 4 matrix and additional pre/post selectable LR2 outputs can also be used to feed the recording. The flexibility and benefits of a matrix cannot be under estimated in today’s console applications. The GL4800 excels with 4 matrix outputs, with a useful mode to allow an insert and balanced XLR output to be swapped from an aux if processing and long cable drive are needed. The matrix mix can even be added to an aux mix if required, ideal for providing quick monitor mixes from groups or LRM while lifting key inputs using channel sends, or for adding effects to grouped signals. Automation: A built-in processor manages the onboard mute system. 8 Quick select buttons can be programmed as mute groups or instant recall scenes. 128 memories can store snapshots of the channel and master mutes for scene recall, with MIDI port to interface with show control or archiving systems, and preview and safes functions to keep you in control. The processor also lets you quickly set or clear all mutes wit…
