Expander AudioRack Remote Unit for Allen & Heath GLD, SQ, Qu, and Avantis Digital Mixing Systems

The Allen & Heath GLD-AR84 is an Expander AudioRack for the company's GLD, SQ, Qu, and Avantis digital mixing systems. The AR84 adds 8 XLR inputs and 4 XLR outputs to the GLD system. You can add up to two GLD-AR84s to your system, connected to the GLD-AR2412 main AudioRack (and/or directly to your GLD-80 mixer). You get easy connectivity with inexpensive and readily available Cat 5 cable running Allen & Heath's dSNAKE protocol. In your live setup, you can position the AR2412 up to 400' from the GLD-80. This lets you place your AudioRacks onstage, for instance, keeping your analog cable runs short and running Cat 5 to FOH. dSNAKE gives you control over the remote preamp, with all mic pres being scene-recallable. Expand your GLD digital mixing system with the Allen & Heath GLD-AR84 from Sweetwater.

Works perfectly with QU-SB

By Jim H. from Williamsburg, VA

I purchased this AR-84 to add channels to my QU-SB and it worked great! With a little prep setting it up before the gig, it worked flawlessly. It took a bit to assign the channels to the correct input (dSnk on the channel strips) but once that is done, it is very easy to use. The only drawback is that the 4 outs can't really be used as additional monitor sends (didn't need them though). They can bee assigned as mains, matrix or group outs. Overall a great product and recommend! I love Allen & Heath products.

excellent thing for the Qu 16 or 24.

By Lou J. from SF Bay Area
Music Background: Professional audio since 1978

I used the AR84 with my Qu-16 for a poetry festival with two speaking mics and a jazz quartet, so 8 inputs was perfect, and two monitors and two mains matched up perfectly with the 8x4 I/O. I like how the patching screen shows the name of the unit so it is completely clear what you are doing when setting up!

My next use will be as the front stage vocal and mains outs with my Qu-24, while the AB168 will handle the rest of the band and the monitors. It's a perfect system for me!
