How To Link a Secondary GLX-D+ Transmitter

Description
When it comes to wireless, Shure has long been at the forefront, developing reliable, transparent systems that deliver stellar performance at prices musicians love. The Shure GLXD16+/Guitar Pedal builds on the success of its counterpart in the GLXD series, adding new Dual Band capacity, with more than double the available bandwidth. This makes it easier to find a clear channel, even when your band or venue is running multiple units. Simple, worry-free setup and management gets the curtain up on time. Smart, flexible charging options and a high-capacity lithium-ion battery give you from 12–17 hours of performance time (depending on band), so the show can run long. But, let’s look a little closer at what makes up this flexible wireless system.

Shure Dual Band Technology
Key to the Shure GLXD+ series is Shure’s Dual Band Wireless System. By expanding the available frequency range from just the 2.4gHz band to encompass the 5.8gHz band as well, the total bandwidth is increased almost 250%. With all this extra bandwidth, the Shure GLXD+ wireless systems can easily find available channels to work in—especially in the less-crowded, more lightly used 5.8gHz band. So, running multiple units is much less complicated. Add in Shure’s smart pairing and smart frequency management, and you’re up and running quickly with no fuss. The system will even automatically choose backup frequencies and seamlessly switch to them if interference crops up in the middle of the show.

The GLXD1+ Body Pack
The GLXD16+ Guitar Pedal system uses the same body pack transmitter as the D14+ lavalier and headset configurations. The system comes with a premium 1/4" TS to mini-XLR cable for easy connection from your instrument to the bodypack. The high-capacity, rechargeable lithium-ion battery features a flexible smart system that can charge from a variety of sources and includes quick-charge capability. With 12–17 hours of runtime per charge—depending on which band the system is using—you’re ready for a production of Wagner’s Ring Cycle, a day-long seminar, or an extended jam band improvisational set.

Convenient Pedalboard Receiver
The Shure GLXD16+ Guitar Pedal receiver is designed to occupy a compact space on your pedalboard while delivering huge performance. With rugged metal construction and compatibility with standard pedalboard power supplies that can deliver at least 400mA of current, it’s easy to incorporate transparent digital wireless into your system. With a 1/4" input available, you don’t have to recable your rig if you need to run wired for a show and the built-in tuner adds a final level of convenience.
Combining the clarity of digital audio, the flexibility of Dual Band technology, smart frequency management and Shure’s legendary microphones, a GLXD16+/Guitar Pedal wireless system is a no-brainer, whether you’re setting up your own pedalboard or taking the whole band wireless.

awesome wireless guitar
i saw this product at the 2023 namm show and the guy demoing the product from shure walked into a crowd of people about 150 feet away and you could still hear him playing clear as a bell so i bought one from Guitar Center the next day, since ive bought it two weeks ago, this is incredible i have no noise which my cable had a slight buzz this wireless unit has no interference going room to room in my house and sounds great, ill share a trick i bought a couple extra pedal power cords and 4ft guitar cable and i leave them at the amp in my bedroom, living room and at my studio so ill i have to do is put it in my bag and bring the shure unit and the battery/connection cable with me. its that easy simple setup and ease of use this thing is awesome and worth the money, i was using a pair of xvive wireless guitar units previously they do well but this shure system blows the xvives out of the water and makes you feel and sound like a pro now all i need is 2.4ghz headphones and be free of wires

Not worth the money.
I returned this unit after three weeks. For a player like me that plays hard rock/metal guitar, I was very disappointed. I play Ibanez RG guitars with high output DiMarzio humbuckers and this unit made my guitars sound like a weak strat. I did everything I could from switching channels to increasing the gain and nothing worked. I lost half of my gain and tone. And, this is not the first unit like this I've had that did exactly the same thing. It's the digital frequency that these modern units use. I just tried an old Samson unit in the MHz range and it worked nearly perfectly. Wireless companies need to get a grip and start testing their units more rigorously to make sure they work as advertised.

When searching for wireless units I immediately searched for one by Shure because I know they make some of the best in the world. This one fits perfectly in my pedalboard and is powered directly off my pedalboard 9v power. It's even got a tuner! Have not had any dropouts. Battery life is fantastic.

I'm an electric violin player in a country band, and I'm loving the freedom to move around the stage and not trip on cables. I also have several instruments I switch out between (electric mandolin, etc)- and I'm able to quickly mute the receiver unit and switch instruments easily- much better than a bunch of cables getting tangled up. Have had no problems with connectivity, even in crowded gigs. #sweepstakes
Amazing!

This thing is insanely consistent! I've walked such a long way away with other wireless networks and walls between me and it's never failed me! Tuner is so convenient too.
Easy to set up and works great

Used at a gig recently and it worked flawlessly. I love that it searches for the best channel automatically. I've got two bandmates using wireless and now I don't have to worry as much about interference. The tuner was a nice touch and worked effectively. I was able to take my old tuner off my board and free up some space. My only complaint would be the transmitter is a little heavy but I'm just not used to it yet. The clip held it securely to my strap. I would definitely recommend this unit.
Best wireless system I've ever used for my 5 string bass gui

I use this product for live performances with my band. I've had zero dropouts and the built-in tuner is accurate and offers two modes of tuning.
