In-ear monitoring
The band has its own closed in-ear system on a Behringer X32 Rack. We do not need wedges. Everyone is on in-ears.
The drum mics must be split and sent to our console as well as to FOH. We have our own splitter in our rack (Behringer Ultralink MS8000). AES50 is also possible if your FOH supports it.
The three vocal mics are split at our rack as well (we do that ourselves), so FOH gets its own line of each. Guitars and backing tracks come from our rack.
Bass: there is no bass player, the bass is in our backing tracks. If the venue has a bass amp, we feed the bass track into it for sound on stage, and its line is split to FOH and our X32. If there is no bass amp, the bass runs through an amp simulator in our rack and we send it to FOH from there.
Lines to FOH
| Count | Source | Route |
|---|---|---|
| 4x XLR (+2 if available) | Drums: kick, snare, 2x overheads (+rack tom, floor tom) | Split on stage, to FOH and our X32 |
| 1x XLR | Bass | From the venue bass amp, split on stage (if there is one), or from our rack |
| 3x XLR | Vocals: Diogenis, Isaak (wireless), Dimitris (wired) | Split at our rack, to FOH and our X32 |
| 3x XLR | Guitars: Dimitris 2x (stereo), Isaak 1x | From our rack |
| 2x XLR | Backing tracks, stereo (2x RCA also possible) | From our rack |
13 to 15 channels in total. On a small desk the toms are the first to drop.
