## Overview

The Shure GLXD16+ Dual Band Pro Digital Wireless System delivers professional-grade wireless audio for guitar and bass players, featuring dual-band 2.4 & 5.8 GHz operation to avoid interference, a rugged pedalboard receiver with built-in tuner, and a rechargeable lithium-ion battery offering up to 12 hours of uninterrupted performance. Designed for easy setup and reliable, crystal-clear sound, it’s the ultimate wireless upgrade for serious musicians seeking flawless stage presence.

## Description

GLX-D+ Dual Band Digital Wireless is the perfect solution for musicians and presenters who want to go wireless with confidence, and without complexity. Every aspect of its operation is managed automatically and with total reliability, allowing you to focus on your performance. With new Dual Band Wireless Technology, GLX-D+ can operate in both 2.4 and 5.8GHz, more than doubling the available bandwidth while also intelligently avoiding interference for reliable, dropout-free audio. Featuring smart rechargeability with up to 12 hours of runtime, the included li-ion battery can be charged multiple ways and offers quick charge capabilities. Available with multiple legendary microphone options (including the SM58) in tabletop, half-rack and guitar pedal system configurations. When combined with Frequency Manager and directional antenna accessories (both sold separately), the rack-mount receiver systems are ideal for small and medium installations where a larger number of channels is needed. GLX-D+ Dual Band transmitters and receivers are not compatible with previous GLX-D or GLX-D Advanced Wireless.

Review: The solution to so many problems! - Shure hit a homerun with the GLXD16. I had a number of problems. The obvious one is that I wanted to be wireless. There were additional considerations in my case, which I will enumerate because I can’t imagine that I am unique in this. I have several basses. One has unbelievably hot Bartolini pickups. It actually overdrives some of my pedals with the volume all the way up. One is a Stingray-5 with much more typical output. One is a beautiful old Warwick with passive pickups. These have radically different voices and radically different output levels. Because they go into my pedal chain at such different voltages, it is difficult to get all three of them sounding good on the same night. I’ve wanted to go wireless for some time, but it wasn’t my highest priority in gear acquisition. I recently upgraded my amp to a Hartke stack with an LH1000 head. I love the rig. It’s beautiful. But I didn’t realize in the store that this thing does not have a standby switch and it takes a good 30 seconds for the tubes to warm up. Suddenly, switching guitars on the fly is big, big problem. So I need to figure out how to normalize voltage into my signal chain, and also figure out how to mute the signal while switching instruments. I looked into mute pedals, signal splitters and pre-amp pedals to boost the passive bass. I also considered using the effects loops so I could use the passive-input jack and still go through the same effects chain, but floor pedals really aren’t meant to take line-level signal. Then if I’m going to use two different input jacks – would I have to buy two wireless receivers? Every solution just added more complications, more wires, and caused as many problems as it solved. Then I decided to look at wireless options before making any decisions, and I am so glad I did. When I discovered the Shure GLXD16, everything came together. First off… The GLXD6 is a first-rate wireless receiver. It includes the GLXD1 transmitter which is a unit that already has a proven history – working with the older GLXD4 receiver. It has two other features that are incredibly useful to me, and probably to many other musicians as well. -A built-in tuner mode, that also mutes the signal. This is not a unique feature: there are dedicated tuning pedals that do this, but having it integrated into the receiver opens one slot on your pedal board and is just amazingly convenient for switching instruments. -It will support multiple transmitters – and it allows you set input signal levels (-20 to +12 dB) AND REMEMBERS THEM FOR EACH TRANSMITTER! You can switch instruments on the fly and know that your signal chain is ready for any of them. The GLXD4 did this also, I believe. This is not new to Shure, but I never seriously looked into a wireless unit until recently. Boom. All my problems solved in a single purchase. I’m wireless. I have customized input boost/pad for each bass. No more dangerous crackle when I switch instruments. I bought a second GLXD1 transmitter. Now I use one for the passive instrument and one for the actives. Soon I will have a third so that each active instrument can have its own fine-tuned input padding. PROS: -These devices feel like they were built from weapons-grade titanium. They are heavy and solid, clearly meant to withstand the rigors of the stage. -Reception range is amazing. The GLXD4 apparently has better range, but unless you are running up the aisles of a 10,000 seat arena, I don’t think you are going to have a problem with this. -Sound quality is uncompromised. This is particularly important for bass players, as cheap wireless units rarely have an adequate frequency response curve. -Easy to use and setup. For one instrument, this works out of the box. There are a lot of things you can do to customize and optimize signal in situations where you have a lot of wireless signal on the stage. For most users, just plug in and go. -Instant recognition and linking of transmitters. BEWARE: -This is not a “con”, just something you MUST be aware of to get things to work as advertised. This needs 12 volts and 250 ma. This shouldn’t be a big problem. There are many guitar pedals that require more than 9 volts these days, and plenty of pedal power supplies that allow you to choose between 9,12,18, and in some cases even 24 volts. I’ve used this through a Voodoo labs 4x4 and currently a Strymon Zuma and it performed perfectly with both. Just use the correct power supply and you’ll be fine. CONS: The ONLY thing about this that bugs me is the power jack. It’s not loose. But it doesn’t really have a satisfying grab either. Of course, if you have your stuff Velcro-ed and zip-tied properly, you won’t have to worry about it, but take it into account when setting up your pedal board.
Review: Completely eliminated random wireless issues other systems had! - I've tried with limited success both the Line6 G30 and G50, the Boss WL50 and the original GLX system and none of them were perfect. Several bars we play at have random interference issues and we've always kept spare instrument cables handy just in case but after playing quite a few shows at all those venues with this new system, I can confidently say that I believe this system has solved the problems. I don't know if it's purely due to the extra frequency it's able to use or what but these venues that plague local musicians with random interference problems seem to not affect this system. Everything is crystal clear, not static, no signal drop out, nothing. It just works. Battery life vs the other systems is substantially better other than the previous gen GLX since they share the same battery. Battery life is at least 2x as long as the Line6 packs. Built in tuner is nice but not necessary and the fact that the antennas are internal is nice (strictly comparing to the L6 G50) Lastly, I was worried that my nice Mogami gold cable I was using with my G50 wouldn't work but the G50 transmitter and the GLX transmitter both use the same mini XLR pin layout so that works with this new system.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reliable and easy
*by M***S on August 30, 2024*

They don’t give you much literature. A step by step quick start guide would be nice, but with the help of ChatGPT and YouTube I got the battery charged and got things up and running. Clipping the unit onto my guitar strap didn’t work too well and fell off on stage. So I bought a Velcro case and it’s nice and solid. The cord is really long and flimsy so I bought a shorter one; a Mogami. Much better. Now I just make sure the battery is charged and away we go. Reliable, great sound, no latency, and nice range. It’s kind of expensive, and for the money I think shure should give you all the extras I bought which came to about $100 more because Mogami ain’t cheap. But oh well. Love it. Love the built in tuner which saves space on my pedalboard.
