Hey guys,
I've just set up to record my new band. Pretty straight forward 14
tracks off the floor. I've got everything going through the patchbays
into an Allen & Heath GL 24000 board and direct channel outs to the MEC.
The weirdness I'm experincing is that the channels, 1, 4, 9, 10,
seemingly, for sure 1, 4 and 9 are , rather than going to their
respective MEC inputs, all lighting up on the #9 MEC input channel.
I'm not going through the GL's matix, just the direct outs on each
channel and it's not a Paris patchbay issue as they are all lighting up
the #9 MEC input led. I'm using a custom made snake to get to the mech
room - 4ft away - but I don't see how it could be the snake. It's a new
A&H board and still under warrantee, but I really don't want it to be a
flakey board, but I won't rule it out either, though I don't see how
you'd get that much "crosstalk" on non-neighbouring channels.
Other than that everything is working tickedy-boo.
Any suggestions where/how to start diagnosing this?

Well all is not so bad. I'm pretty fastidious about cables and
connections so, natch, I didn't check the snake. But lo and behold by
bass player was
"helping" by repatching some of the channels for us..!! d'oh. So we've
got it down to 2 potentially flakey direct out's on the board.
after that we had a great day recording....
