3.5 Channel Libraries

Libraries let you store and recall presets for individual

processing blocks such as EQ and Compressor, and also

for the whole Input or Mix channel.

Input and Mix channel processing Libraries do not store

routing, levels or assignments.

The Library window lists available presets. Input and mix

channel Libraries are accessed from their Overview page.

Touch the Library button to open the Library window. Touch

Exit Library to close the window.


The list shows 3 types of Library:

Factory (cannot be deleted)

User (stored in memory in the GLD)

USB (accessed directly from the USB key)


Touch to select a Library item and use the buttons to Recall

or Overwrite the item. Touch Store New to store a new User

Library item. Use the name keypad to apply a name of up to

8 characters.

User and USB Libraries cannot be deleted from this page.

Go to the

Setup / Memory / Library Manager

page to

delete and rename Libraries or transfer them between the

GLD and a USB key.

Input Library Preamp recall
– Input Libraries store the

Preamp settings and all channel processing including HPF,

Gate, PEQ, Compressor and Delay. The Recall Preamp

channels. For example, Socket 1 to Channel 1, Socket 2 to

Channel 2 and so on.
