SAFETY WARNING!
Mains electricity is dangerous and can kill. Mains voltage is present within the console power supply.
Do not remove the power supply cover with mains electricity connected. To ensure your safety, mains earth is connected to the chassis through the power lead. Do not remove this mains earth connection.
To avoid the risk of fire, replace the mains fuse only with the correct value and type as indicated on the power supply unit.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Your GL2200 is ruggedly constructed to give many years of reliable operation. However, you will extend the life of the console and preserve its cosmetics by applying these simple common sense precautions.
Avoid storing or using the mixing console in conditions of excessive heat or cold, or in positions where it is likely to be subject to vibration, dust, dirt or moisture.
Do not use any liquids to clean the control surface of the console, a soft dry brush or dry lint-free cloth is ideal.
Use only water or ethyl alcohol to clean the trim and scribble strips. Other solvents may cause damage to paint or plastic parts.
The faders, switches and potentiometers are lubricated for life. The use of electrical lubricants on these parts is not recommended.
Avoid using the console close to strong sources of electromagnetic radiation (e.g. video monitors, high power electric cabling): this may cause degradation of the audio quality due to induced voltages in connecting leads and chassis. For the same reason, always site any external power supply away from the unit.

The GL2200 console can be powered from either the internal power supply, from an external DC supply such as the Allen & Heath RPS11, or both together. The LED indicators on the rear panel illuminate to indicate which supply is active.
Normally the internal power supply will be used to power the console by the standard 3 pin IEC mains input connector. A mains cable with moulded mains plug suitable for the local supply is supplied. Check that the correct mains lead with moulded plug has been supplied with your console. Ensure that the IEC mains plug is fully inserted into the rear panel socket before switching on.
POWER SUPPLY
The internal power supply for the GL2200 is a switch mode supply and will operate from a wide range of mains input voltages. It produces the DC voltages required by the console. Before switching on your console, check that the ac mains fuse is of the correct type and rating. This is clearly marked on the rear panel of the console. Do not replace the fuse with any other type, as this could become a safety hazard and will void the warranty.

GL2200 USER GUIDE
An external DC supply may be used instead of, or together with the internal supply. Use only recommended Allen & Heath power supplies or a supply approved by Allen & Heath. The use of alternative supplies is not recommended and may cause damage.
The pin connections for the EXTERNAL DC IN connector are specified below:
In the absence of an active 100V to 230V a.c. mains supply, the GL2200 will automatically switch over to the external DC supply unit if connected.
Always turn connected power amplifiers down or off before switching the console on or off.
In the event of an electrical storm, or large mains voltage fluctuations, immediately switch off and disconnect all power to the console.

EARTHING THE AUDIO SYSTEM
The console chassis is connected to mains earth via the power cable. Audio 0V is connected internally to the chassis and therefore mains earth. In this way all signal returns and connector shields are connected to mains earth at the console.
To ensure safety, do not remove the earth connection from the AC mains plug or from EXTERNAL DC IN cable.
For best performance it is important that the earth system is solid, clean and noise-free. To prevent mains-borne and external interference pickup from lighting equipment, motors and other mains powered equipment it is recommended that a separate ‘clean’ mains distribution outlet is used for the audio system.
All signal cables should have their screens connected to earth at the connector. If earth (ground) loop problems result in audible hum or buzz then disconnect the cable screen connection at one end, usually the destination end. This may be done within the cable plug or by operating the ‘ground lift’ switch if available on the connected equipment. Many DI boxes and power amplifiers include this facility.

PLUGGING UP THE CABLES
p
The GL2200 uses professional grade 3-pin XLR, 1/4" TRS jack and RCA PHONO sockets. Where possible use balanced connections to prevent noise and interference pickup especially on long cable runs. Avoid running audio cables next to AC mains, computer or lighting cables, near thyristor dimmer units or power supplies etc. The use of low impedance sources such as good quality microphones of 200 ohms or less significantly reduces interference pickup. Many problems can be avoided by taking time to check that all cables are correctly wired. Avoid reversing + and - on balanced connections as this will result in out of phase signals (reverse polarity) causing signal cancellation effects. This situation is particularly common in multi­microphone mixing. Use professional quality cable and carefully soldered connections. The following wiring convention is used:

GL2200 USER GUIDE
CONNECTING CHANNEL INPUTS
Both microphone and line sources such as keyboards, replay devices and effects processors can be plugged into either the jack or XLR input for convenience. The channel accepts a wide 70dB range of source levels. The balanced 3-wire input provides the best immunity to interference pickup on long cable runs.
CONNECTING TO INSERTS
You do not need to plug anything into the insert socket for normal operation. You may, however wish to insert a signal processor such as a compressor/limiter or noise gate into the signal path to prevent excessive peaks or to cut down source noise. The insert lets you do this by breaking the signal path after the input pre-amp and before the EQ in the channel input or before the fader in the Group and L-R section. Use a Y-lead or suitable TRS jack lead to connect to the external processor. The insert operates at 0dBu line level in the channel input and –2dBu in the Group and L-R section. Adjust the processor input and output levels for optimum signal level.
CHANNEL DIRECT OUTPUTS
The channel direct output taps the signal off post-fader (pre-fader if the internal link option is changed) for connection to external processing or recording equipment. This is ideal for multitrack recording during a live performance. Here each channel can be recorded on a separate track for mixdown later. The output is impedance balanced on TRS jack. This means that you get the benefit of interference immunity when connecting to outboard equipment with balanced inputs. You can, of course, also connect to unbalanced equipment. The signal operates at nominal 0dBu line level.
ADJUSTING THE LEVELS
For best performance it is important that the connected source signals are matched to the “normal operating level” of the console. Similarly the console outputs should be correctly matched to the operating levels of the connected amplifiers and destination equipment. If too high, the signal peaks will be clipped resulting in a harsh distorted sound, and if too low, the signal-to-noise ratio is reduced resulting in excessive background hiss.
For best results, operate the console with the meters averaging ‘0’ or just below and allowing the loudest passages and occasional peaks into the ‘yellow’. Reduce the gain if the peak indicators flash (red). The GL2200 provides +4dBu output level at the XLR outputs for a meter reading of 0VU. It is advisable to adjust the power amplifier input gain or fit an attenuator pad if normal console operation results in an output level too high for the connected amplifier. Normal operation should give rise to fader levels around the ‘0’ mark.
The GL2200 has an advanced PFL (pre-fade listen) / AFL (after-fader listen) and channel metering system to let you listen to and check the level of signals at different points in the signal path without affecting the main outputs. Use the channel PFL switches to set up the input GAIN controls to read an average ‘0’ (yellow LED). Signal activity is always shown on the channel meters regardless of fader position. The green ‘SIG’ LED lights at -20dBu to indicate signal presence, the yellow ‘0’ LED indicates normal level, and the red ‘PEAK’ LED warns of potential overload 5dB before clipping.

PAN positions the channel signal within the stereo image or between L-R and the groups when the routing switches are selected. The centre position is detented for quick resetting.
MUTE switches the signal off when pressed regardless of fader position. Muted channels are indicated by red LEDs. The channel meter continues to indicate pre­fader channel activity.
A 4 LED CHANNEL METER shows signal activity at all times. The green SIG LED indicates signals greater than -20dBu, yellow ‘0’ and ‘+6’ represents normal operating level, and red PEAK warns of potential overload 5dB before clipping. Set the channel signal so that the meter averages between ‘0’ and ‘+6’. Back the gain off if the red peak LED flashes.
Pressing PFL lets you listen to the channel pre-fader signal on headphones without interrupting the main console outputs. The signal level is shown on the L- R bargraph meters. In this way each sound can be correctly lined up and checked at any time.
L-R, 1-2, 3-4 routing switches feed the channel signal to the L-R mix and groups 1-2, 3-4. Use the pan control to route to individual groups, i.e. left to route to L, 1, 3 and right to route to R, 2, 4. In this way subgroups may be set up in mono or stereo to feed the main L-R mix.
A 100mm FADER provides +10dB boost above the normal ‘0’ operating level. All post-fade aux send levels are dependent on the level of the fader.

STEREO INPUT CHANNEL
Two stereo input channels are included as standard. Each features a 4-band EQ, 6 aux sends and group routing. Use this channel for stereo sources such as keyboards and two track players, or for returning additional effects processors to the mix and monitors. A mic input is included so that you can use the channel for additional mics when needed. The stereo line input can still be routed to the mix while using the channel mic input.
The stereo inputs are on separate TRS jacks. For mono line sources plug into the L/MONO jack socket only. For microphone sources plug into the XLR.
48V selects +48V DC to the XLR input for microphones that require phantom power.
IMPORTANT NOTE : Switch off channel +48V when non-phantom powered or unbalanced sources are connected to the XLR input.
φ
reverses the POLARITY of the input source to correct problems often encountered in microphone placement, or due to incorrectly wired cables (pin 3 hot instead of pin 2). May also be helpful in reducing acoustic feedback between closely positioned loudspeakers and mics in live sound mixing.
GAIN controls for the MIC and LINE inputs let you adjust each source independently.
LINE TO L-R routes the stereo line source direct to the L-R mix. In this way both the mic and stereo line inputs may be used at the same time. The mic can be routed through the stereo channel while the line input becomes an independent source or return to the LR mix.
MIC/LINE selects either the mic XLR or the stereo line jack inputs to the channel. When selecting LINE on the second stereo input channel, the MIC input section is available as the source for talkback. A green LED indicator illuminates to confirm this. The channel can be used with the stereo line input in the normal way while the mic is independently used for talkback.
The 4-band stereo EQ lets you adjust the tonal quality of the sound. The HF (treble) and LF (bass) bands have a shelving response, which means that all frequencies beyond the corner frequency are affected. The 2 mid frequencies MF1 and MF2 provide optimum control over boomy or boxy sounds (250Hz), and can add bite or reduce harshness to keyboards, vocals etc. (2.5kHz). The centre flat position is detented for quick resetting.
6 AUX SENDS provide feeds for foldback monitors and effects. Aux 1-4 and Aux 5-6 may be set to pre or post-fader using the PRE switch. The left and
right stereo signals are summed to provide aux feeds in mono. Monitor sends to the performers are usually set pre-fade (PRE), although
some sources such as radio mics are often set post-fade to avoid ‘dressing room’ talk spill.
Effects sends to external signal processing equipment such as reverb and delay effects units, are usually set post-fade so that the amount of effect (wet signal) is always relative to the position of the fader (dry signal).

Two stereo return inputs are provided with 2-band EQ, sends to auxes 1 & 2 and routing to L-R mix or groups 1-2/3-4. These are normally used to return the effects (‘wet’) signal, usually from a stereo device, to the mix. They can also be used for additional line inputs to the mix.
A 2 band EQ provides HF and LF control with 15dB cut and boost at 12kHz and 80Hz respectively. This is often used to remove unwanted high or low frequency noise from effects devices.
2 aux sends are provided to feed a summed left and right pre-fade post mute signal to auxes 1 & 2. This is ideal for returning effects to the monitors without using up valuable channel inputs.
The BAL control adjusts the balance between left and right signals, or can be used as a pan control to route the signal to one side only by rotating fully.
MUTE switches the signal off when pressed regardless of fader position. Muted Returns are indicated by red LEDs. Mute does affect the pre-fade aux sends.
Pressing PFL lets you listen to the channel pre-fader signal on headphones without interrupting the main console outputs. The signal level is shown on the L-R bargraph meters. In this way each sound can be correctly lined up and checked at any time.
L-R/1-2 (3-4) ROUTING SWITCHES - In the up position the signal is routed to the main L-R mix but may be returned to the corresponding pairs of subgroups for group effects (1-2 or 3-4).
A smooth travel 60mm FADER provides precise control of the level.
AUX OUTPUTS
AUX MASTERS
Each aux mix has a master level control that adjusts the output level to match external equipment, or to trim the monitor or effects level without affecting the mix balance. Up to +10dB of boost is available above the nominal ‘0’ position. Auxiliary outputs are on 3-wire impedance balanced 1/4” TRS jacks.
AFL (After Fade Listen) routes the post mix signal to the console meters and headphone monitoring to allow checks for sound quality and mix level.

GROUPS
Group outputs are controlled by 100mm travel faders which offer a further 10dB boost above the normal ‘0’ dB operating level.
MUTE switches the group signal off when pressed regardless of fader position. Muted channels are indicated by red LEDs.
AFL (After Fade Listen) routes the post fader signal to the console
L-R
meters and headphone monitoring to allow checks for sound quality and mix level. The AFL signal is sourced before the MUTE switch allowing the signal to be checked even when the group is muted.
LRLR
Each group has a 4 segment LED peak reading meter providing signal presence indication and peak warning which illuminates approximately 5dB before clipping. Meter activity is interrupted when a group is muted.
SUB GROUPING
Sometimes it is necessary to control more than one channel simultaneously, in the case of a drum kit or a group of backing vocalists for example.
Route the relevant channels to groups instead of L-R, using the channel routing switches and the pan controls.
PAN control positions the signal in the stereo image with the L-R switch routing the group mix to the Left & Right masters. Ensure the group L-R switch is selected to route the group signal to the L-R mix.
In this way, one group fader can control the level of several channels. It is possible to set up mono or stereo subgroups using the channel and
group PAN controls.

GL2200 USER GUIDE
MODE SWITCHING
The GL2200 features a set of GROUP/AUX REVERSE (REV) switches, which can transpose the AUX and GROUP controls in pairs. These switches are recessed to avoid accidental operation. Set using a pointed object or a pen tip.
This feature allows you to set the operation of the console for Front Of House, Stage monitor or a combination of both (Dual mode).
With the switches out, the groups operate in the conventional manner, channel grouping using the channel routing switches.
When the REVERSE switches are pressed in, the group busses are routed to the AUX send masters and the aux busses are routed to the GROUPS (Aux 1 to Group 1, etc). Aux 5 & 6 are routed to L-R faders respectively.
This configuration allows the user to control up to six monitor mix levels on faders. Outputs are on balanced XLRs for long cable runs and a signal processor (equaliser, compressor, limiter, etc.) can be inserted into the signal path using the group and left/right INSERT jacks.
The L-R and group busses are still operational but are now routed to the aux master controls and can be used for additional monitor or effect sends.
It is advisable to study the GL2200 block diagram to fully understand this flexible routing arrangement.

Plug in a standard 12V “gooseneck” lamp to provide illumination of the control panel. This should be a BNC connector type with a current consumption of no more than 350mA.
2-TRACK RECORD AND REPLAY
Individual RCA phono sockets are provided for connecting a 2-track stereo recorder such as a cassette or DAT machine. Connect the recorder input (REC) connectors to the console SEND sockets and the recorder output (PLAY) connectors to the RETURN sockets
Separate SEND and RETURN level controls adjust the signal to the required line level and sensitivity. The console can work with both high (+4dBu) and low (-10dBV) level equipment.
Alternatively the RETURN inputs may be used for stereo intermission replay from a CD or similar to the main mix by pressing REPLAY TO L- R. An LED warns that replay is selected.
The SEND may be used for recording or broadcasting the performance in stereo, or to feed an alternative set of speakers, or drive an induction loop hearing aid system. The send outputs are post L-R faders as standard.
PHONES MONITOR AND BARGRAPH METERS
Use stereo headphones with a nominal impedance of 30 to 600 ohms. Adjust the LEV control for a comfortable listening level. The phones and the 12 segment bargraph normally meter the post fade L-R mix or the two track return depending on the position of the L-R/2TRK switch. Pressing any AFL/PFL button on the console will override the monitor with the selected AFL/PFL signal. A large red LED located below the meters indicates a PFL or AFL selection.
MONO OUTPUT
The MONO OUT / AFL/PFL switch sources the signal from either a summed post-fader L-R mix or the AFL/PFL mix. When MONO OUT is selected, the MONO output provides for a centre fill or sub-bass loudspeaker, mono recording or broadcast feed. When AFL/PFL is selected, you can feed a stage monitor engineer’s listen wedge.
This switch is recessed to avoid accidental operation. Use a pointed object or pen tip to operate.
MAIN L-R OUTPUTS
MUTE switches the main mix signal off when pressed regardless of
fader position. Muted outputs are indicated by red LEDs. AFL (After Fade Listen) routes the post fader mix signal to the console
meters and headphone monitoring to allow checks for sound quality and mix level. The AFL signal is sourced before the MUTE switch allowing the signal to be checked even when the mix signal is muted.
L-R FADERS - Individual 100mm faders adjust the main L-R mix level with +10dB boost available above the nominal ‘0’ position. For best performance the faders should be operated around the ‘0’ position for normal ‘loud’ level. If you find yourself operating significantly below ‘0’ then the amplifier or recorder input is too sensitive for the console +4dBu output. Simply turn down the amplifier or recorder level trim. If none is available then insert an attenuator pad between the console and connected equipment.

GL2200 USER GUIDE
OSCILLATOR/PINK NOISE & TALKBACK
The GL2200 oscillator section provides for two modes of operation:
1kHz Tone Mode
A 1kHz sinewave is provided for setting up input levels on external devices, such as recording equipment, FX processors and so on.
Pink Noise Mode A ‘pink noise’ signal, can be used to check the phase and overall frequency response of a loudspeaker or an array of loudspeakers or for analysing the acoustics of an auditorium. Pink noise produces equal sound energy per octave over the audio band. It has a “mellow, balanced” sound to the human ear compared with white noise, which sounds “brilliant and hissy” due to additional energy at high frequencies.
OSCILLATOR
1kHz/Pink Noise – Selects between the two signal types outlined above. The level control allows adjustment from –20dBu to +20dBu.

ON – Switches the oscillator/pink noise on and off. LED indicates status. Under-panel switch prevents accidental triggering of the oscillator during performances.
WARNING! – The oscillator/pink noise facility on the GL2200 is a powerful tool for audio system checking and setup. However, the operator should ensure that the ON switch is not selected during performances in order to avoid interruption of the show and possible speaker damage by accidentally routing the oscillator to the outputs.
TALKBACK
The talkback input is connected into the Mic input of the SECOND STEREO INPUT CHANNEL. By selecting LINE, the signal is fed to the routing switches in the oscillator/pink noise section and talkback is enabled when the momentary TALK switch is pressed. Talk to several destinations at the same time by selecting a combination of routing switches.
Use the MIC GAIN control on the stereo input channel to control talkback level. +48V is available for microphones which require phantom power. The ability to talk to auxes (foldback monitors) is important when using the console for
stage monitoring and cueing the performers. The line jack inputs of the second stereo input channel can still be used when the mic
input is enabled for talkback.

ENGINEER'S WEDGE MONITOR
Set up the WEDGE MIX by selecting one or a combination of the groups/L-R AFL switches to listen to the desired monitor outputs. These are post insert and therefore post graphic EQ and post fader for accurate monitoring.
Pressing any PFL or AFL switch allows channel set up and signal checking.
This example shows the 6 aux sends routed through the main groups and L-R outputs to provide 6 independent stage monitor mixes with metering, MUTE switches, inserts and balanced XLR connectors.
The AUX/GROUP reverse switches reroute the group and L­R mix to the aux jacks outputs for additional monitoring or effect sends or as independent submix facilities. For example, aux 5 and 6 jack outputs may provide a seperate stereo mix output from the channel L-R routing switches and the additional 4 stereo return line inputs.
Use the groups to add effects such as delay, reverb or echo to the stage monitors.

This example shows the console configured to control a Left, Right and Centre Front of House system with 4 full feature stage monitor mixes.
Stage monitor sends aux 1-4 are set pre-fade so that the signal level is not affected by the fader position and the FOH mix.
Aux 5-6 are set post-fade to access two effects devices whose outputs are added to the L-R mix via stereo returns

1 and 2. Alternatively, these may be connected to the stereo channels.
The channel and output inserts may be used for outboard effects and signal processors such as compressors, limiters and graphic equalisers.

GRAPHIC EQUALISERS
Graphic equalisers plugged into the inserts are an invaluable aid to reducing on-stage acoustic feedback and enhancing the clarity of the monitors.
These switches are recessed

to avoid accidental operation. Set using a pen tip or pointed

object.
Set the AUX REVERSE switch to the down position (below panel) to route aux mixes 1-4 through groups 1-4. Set L-R switch in the up position for conventional operation.
Set LR SUM MONO switch to up for mono out (L+R sum).

INTERNAL LINK OPTIONS
The console is set to satisfy most applications that should be encountered. However, the following internal link options are offered to provide alternative settings for those applications that may require them. These options involve resoldering of circuit board links and should only be carried out by competent technical personnel. Further information is available in the GL2200 SERVICE MANUAL and from your agent.
MONO & STEREO INPUT
1. Reconfigure each aux as required to be permanently pre-fade or post-fade rather than switched by the front panel PRE switch.
2. Reconfigure the pre-fade sends to be pre-EQ / pre-mute, or post-EQ / pre-mute, instead of the standard post-EQ / post-mute.
3. Disable +48V phantom power regardless of panel switch position - remove link.
4. Reconfigure the Direct Out Source to be pre-fade or post-fade.
