Sub 45min setup

[Dj Diddy Davies]

Question for Toby...

Your set up is one trip in, what does your rig consist of and how do you manage to get the whole lot in in one go? (well impressed!)

Ta.

OP ~ looks great!

I hate rushing - especially in a "turn the room around" situation! So finding ways to get quicker is certainly on my to do list.

Toby's set up is really quick - he's not exaggerating.

I think he was referring to my show taking 10 trips
I stopped using a trolly a while back because I had too many random boxes that wouldn't stack safely.
It's certainly something I'm working on.
The trips back to the Galaxy and the uplighting are the things that add time.

Thanks.

I've got a few more tweaks to make on the wiring, but one of my favorites was my combined power and audio leads.

That was setting up slowly it can be done in 10 mins as I found out the other day when my car broke down

I was talking about andys mainly but you do have lots of seperates.
I have top thank Steve for my set up as I have pretty much duplicated his slowly without realising it.

Here is an old pic. I now only have the one powered sub, RCF's and VCI 300 flightcase so have ditched the amprack and other sub.
I usually have uplighting too which takes longer obviously.

Main thing is my lighting is all pre rigged on a tbar and stored in a big flightcase on wheels with all the other stands and bits and bobs.
All on one power input so just a case of putting it on the lighting stand and plugging it in.

I've also got a pre-rigged and pre-wired T bar which lives in a "semi-flight" fibre case, but it's not on wheels. It's heavy to carry and to set up, but it's certainly fast to set up.

Next plan is to think about combining playout and amps into one case, but it might need to be custom built, or at least modified a bit, because the playout isn't 19 inch.

All very nice but do you have anything in your contract about stairs?

Toby,

Have you got dimensions, a source and an idea of what you paid for that big flightcase. That is of definite interest.

30 pound extra and normally have a venue member of staff on hand.
I do not normally encounter stairs tbh. short flights it goes up in two manouvers.
