I have a GLD 80 in my theater. Up in my catwalks I have my main patch bay area with a 24 channel AR 2412 and the 8 channel AR 84 expander. In my booth I have a second 8 channel AR 84 expander (it's full with 8 wireless mics in that rack). I am getting ready to install a computer with SFX and a multi-track sound card for sound playback. I would also like to add some more wireless mics in the booth. So I need more inputs. However the way I reading the GLD documentation it sounds like I have already maxed out the system capacity for A&H inputs. Is that correct? What I would like to do is add a second 24 channel AR 2412 to my system. Is that possible? What about adding an AB 168 portable rack to my system? Is that possible or is the 48 total inputs a hard limit? I don't need more than 48 inputs functional at the same time, heck it's rare that I need more than 24 at the same time. What I need is patching flexibility, can I get it using the standard GLD accessories?
If none of those options work, it sounds like I can get more inputs by adding a networking module. How does that work? I know nothing about Dante and the other options. Can I add a card and a digital snake and have access to up to 64 additional inputs? That sounds really expensive.
Thanks!
