Sungazer (Adam Neely) Rig Rundown
- Thread starter Dr. Cheese
- Start date
Great live band. I saw them open for Plini last time around.
Insanely considerate.
Turning the stage monitors to face the audience in part so the band sounds better on social media.
Also- will there ever be a Mk II HX Stomp?

Very humbling and at 71 how out of touch I am and have been in Club Cover Band land
Brought a big smile when he said
"We are keeping it Simple this time"
I can't even imagine Technology that say Taylor Swift brings

Have this in my “watch later” queue. He makes some good content and is an accomplished player. I’ve watched his video on their IEM rig several times, and will prob watch again, as I start putting together a small IEM rig myself.
Interesting take. I see this as perfecting a live product. Some people love the interaction push/pull aspect of playing live music together. I quite enjoy that myself within certain types of music. But when you’ve got synths and all kinds of other stuff you’re trying to represent as the full package, utilizing technology like this is friggin awesome. Lots of bands don’t try to sound like the record. Lots of bands DO try to sound like the record.
I’m appreciative of both.
They are a big band playing pretty small venues. Say let them use whatever is available to sound tight in concert.
It's the Frequencies Digital produces. You hear more on records -than live. The backing tracks is what most say is causing the live sound to sound boring. If the live tracks were imperfect, someone would say it doesn't sound like the record. I'm of the opinion. A DJ makes things more interest. with all these bands using backing tracks. Having a DJ cutting live would make more sense. But that's less money for each member.
Yes, perfecting product. Exactly. While my remark is off the cuff, I have built many a playback system and toured doing this exact thing. I do appreciate how it can make an air tight product. It succeeds in bypassing an enormous amount of the environment.
Something gained, something lost though- the experience of the energy of on stage amplification, environmental acoustics, all those parts of the equation that are being removed are also a big part of what create the “now” that is the essence of live performance. There’s got to be a middle ground between that can open things up and not choke them to where you gotta flip floor wedges so the front row can tell what is going on.
That should be FOH responsibility
Maybe even array in front set up like side monitors
For bands wanting old school stage volume as opposed to IEM: High quality monitors and mix work
I prefer IEM but one Festival our band played they had Top Notch sound team with excellent powered monitors for each of us
Mine had full mix with Bass slightly elevated: was excellent experience
