Glensound GSL4/235 + GSL4/117 Broadcasting/Summing mixers 1970's

2 x units available.

Listed price is per unit.

Anyone looking for a really great front end for their DAW, 4x fantastic mic preamps and 4:1 summing mixer of the finest quality at a bargain price, I'm selling these gorgeous little Glensound broadcast mixers.
These 4-channel Glensound broadcast mixers from the 70's features 4 very high quality microphone and line preamps with lots of clean gain (over 70dB), headphone cue amp with two headphone outputs, PFL, PPM Meter, Line up tone generator, Line/MIC switchable on all 4 channels, and an output limiter.
Very low noise, clean signal path, beautifully delivered via the large Amperon transformers on each channel input. Would make an excellent front end for any DAW or perhaps as part of an incredible podcasting setup. If you use mics which need a lot of gain such as the Shure SM7B or vintage ribbons etc, this would be ideal and a great way to get 4 x very high quality pre amps at a low price. Sonically, they are comparable to a vintage API from the same period; warm, detailed, airy and punchy. High quality
components used throughout, you can see from the internal photos the quality of parts and workmanship.
The superb, high-spec faders are full-throw Penny and Giles with micro switch cutoff at the quiet end. Being a broadcast console, the faders are inverted compared to modern consoles (pull them towards you to increase gain).

These were used by the BBC among others. Quite rare these days, especially in such good condition. These are clean examples with excellent cosmetics for their age (approx 50 years) and are fully working without any issues. A few small marks on the side panels are shown in the photos.
Please note that the sockets are the high-quality GPO type, not standard 1/4" jacks. You can find them on eBay, etc. I will try to include some GPO cables in the sale to get you started if I can find them! They are currently in storage. Although a 1/4" jack may work, I can not recommend this as it could damage the sockets. The XLR sockets are standard female XLRs.
It was always my intention to add direct outs per channel but never got around to it.


Power cable with U.K. plug included.

Thanks for looking.
