Firmware update instructions for Mac:
Step1 Download the firmware
Visit www.allen-heath.com and download the latest GLD firmware. Save the zipped file to your
Desktop or folder of your choice. You may also wish to keep a copy of this zip file as a backup of
this version of firmware.
Step2 Remove any previous GLD Firmware from your USB key
Plug a USB key into your computer. If you have previous GLD firmware already on your key, look
in its AllenHeathGLD folder and delete the existing Firmware directory and also the
Firmware.md5 file in the AllenHeathGLD folder. Do not delete the other directories.
Step3 Extract the Zip file and copy the folder to your USB key
Navigate to where you have saved the GLD firmware zip file. Double click on the zip file to
extract its contents (this may have automatically been done for you). You will now see a folder
called AllenHeathGLD. Copy this folder to the root directory of the USB key.
Check that a new Firmware directory has appeared under the AllenHeathGLD folder on your USB
key. You may need to refresh the folder to see this.
Note: Do not change the folder name or browse inside the Firmware folder as doing this may
cause firmware corruption. Attempting to navigate or open files within this directory may cause
your Operating System to leave behind small temporary system files which can invalidate your
firmware.
Step4 Eject the USB key from your computer
You can do this by clicking on the small eject icon by the USB key in Finder.
Step5 Plug the key into a USB port on the GLD
Plug your USB key into either one of the USB ports on the GLD-80. Go to the Setup / Utility /
Firmware screen and touch Update. This will then detect your USB key and validate the
firmware contents.
Step6 Perform the update
Touch the Update button. Do not interrupt this process. When the firmware has been
successfully installed, touch the Reboot button. The GLD will reboot with the new firmware
installed. Any AudioRacks currently connected or connected later to the GLD-80 will have their
firmware automatically updated by the GLD-80 during their boot process.
Step7 Recall your settings
Recall a Template Show or the User Show you saved before the update to restore your settings.
USB directory structure
The AllenHeathGLD folder is located in the root
directory of your USB key.
Event Logs are copied to this directory. You can
email them to Allen & Heath Tech Support if they
require further investigation.
Delete the Firmware directory as described in Step 2
above before unzipping a new version of firmware to
your key. Do not browse this directory as opening
files may result in the firmware failing to update.
The GLD uses these directories to store the
parameter Libraries and User Shows.
GLD creates this folder when you open the Setup /
Audio / USB Audio screen Options pull-up and
choose the ‘Show Playback Files’ option. Create
this directory if it does not already exist and copy
audio files from your computer here to view and play
selected files rather than all audio on your USB key.
GLD creates this directory to store audio recordings.
