Hi
I own a qu 32 desk im thinking of getting a stage box however ive seen online there is one that reads AR2412 GLD as the model anonther just reads AR2412 i need to buy the correct one for my desk is there a differnce

Just the AR-2412. The GLD refers to their next up series console.

The stage boxes are

AR-2412
AR-084
AB-168

I put the hyphens in. You may see them displayed without hyphens.

Thanks Cumbee…please refer to the link and see my confusion…hope you puck it up

It says FOR GLD. Read down below. It says for GLD or QU.

New ones now are black. Not purple. I sell them. I have an older purple one along with the other 2. I have a GLD80 and QU16 I use for demo and small shows and TV audio I do.

I don’t see any confusing information. It clearly states “FOR GLD OR QU” and gives the correct model #: AR2412.

Let me break it down Dick…look at tge purple one it says gld ar2412…and the say its for both gld and qu …then the black one says ar2412 and description says its for gld and they dont mention qu.but if u look at the pdf docs on a&h page they only mention ar2412 not gld Ar2412…but Cumbee did explain the purple one is the older one and he is selling the stuff

Thanks

The two models are identical other than the colour and the XLR tabs to lock XLR cables. There is no change in components inside the box nor firmware.
Either would work with both Qu and GLD.

Tony…

The info you linked is NOT from A&H. It’s from a re-seller on Amazon.

I love my purple boxes!!!
especially not having locking connectors :slight_smile:

So if I was to add a AR2412 to my Qu-SB, I’d get:
– 16 extra mic pre inputs
– I could map another 6 XLR’s as stereo inputs corresponding to St-1-3
– Leaving 2 XLRs spare

How many of the AR2412’s 12 output channels could I use?
EG, for IEM pairs?

As the AR2412s inputs are assignable, you can use all 24 and patch them where you want.
You can use all 12 of the outputs, again, assignable from any outputs you choose.

…number of individual mixes is limited by the Qu. On Qu16 there are four mono and three stereo mixes. On Qu-SB/Pac/24/32 you can also use groups as additional mixes.

Thanks Mark!
