GSGC5

The Glensound GSGC5 is an outside broadcast mixer ideally suited to news gathering or sporting events. Using digital bandwidth compression techniques it provides 7.5kHz bandwidth circuits between the studio and the outside broadcast site using a single ISDN2 B channel. It can be supplied with a G722, an APTX, a special DUAL codec or an MPEG layer2 (also does G722). The dual codec automatically analyses the called codec and uses the appropriate coding (either G722 or APTX). No action is required by the operator. The GSGC5 construction is such that it is easy to retro-fit any future codec standard.

Fully self contained, the GSGC5 is compact, flexible and easy to operate. Just plug into an ISDN2 S bus, dial the studio and be ready to broadcast. Facilities are provided for two commentators, an effects mic and a tape machine. An internal DTMF generator is used to generate ringing, dialling, engaged and other tones. This generator can also be used, after a call has been established, to signal the studio. A DTMF detector and sounder are also fitted so that the studio can signal the commentator.

Mic inputs, mixer and cue outputs are transformer coupled and provided on XLRs. The mixer output is even line drive capable and in the absence of an ISDN line the cue output automatically becomes a cue input, so the equipment can be used on analogue lines. Comprehensive software enables customers to configure the unit to suit their exact needs and up to 12 telephone numbers can be stored in non volatile RAM. Although normally battery operated a connector is fitted for an external DC supply.

VARIATIONS

GSGC4
Our GSGC4 is a cut down version of the GSGC5 with fewer controls particularly aimed at the non technical user. It has only one mic channel and one tape channel and only feeds one pair of headphones. Glensound is always pleased to quote for variations on our products to meet customers exact needs.
GSGC5A
As our GSGC5 but with the addition of four PFL switches (1 for each mixer input).
GSGC5D
As our GSGC5 but with the operating instructions in Spanish serigraphy.
GSGC5F
The GSGC5F has the same ISDN functions and looks very similar to our GSGC5 but has a different four channel mixer. The mixer on the GSGC5F has two Mic channels and two Mic/Line switchable channels. It also has two parallel jacks sockets on both headphone feeds enabling up to four commentators per unit. The cue in/out and the mix out are provided on jack sockets.
GSGC5G
The GSGC5G has the same audio & ISDN functions as the GSGC5F with the addition of a local cue input. This balanced zero level input is fed to each of the two headphone amps via individual gain controls.
