Allen & Heath GL2400-16

Developed from the hugely successful GL2200, the 4 group, 6 aux Allen & Heath GL2400 offers uncompromised dual functionality for mixing FOH, stage monitors or both. It adds a host of new features including a 7x4 matrix with innovative mic cross-patching to create ambient enhanced additional mixes such as mono or stereo IEM and recording feeds, a mono fader assignable as LR sum, engineers wedge monitor control or even aux fed sub/C mix, the two stereo channels accepting 2 stereo line plus a mic each, and many thoughtful new touches such as the plug-able option jumpers, XLR lamp sockets and Sys-Link V2 expandability. Performance is taken to a new level with the latest extended headroom preamp design, responsive EQ and a new ultra-quiet mix head amp.

The stylish new design is built using individual, nutted pot cards into a rugged, all-steel small footprint chassis ideal for flight-casing or the space conscious venue. The GL2400 is available in frame sizes ranging from 16-40 channels.
