Cables wise I have 2 boxes. One for audio & dmx then one for all the power cables.

What I tend to do before plugging any lead in is go round the rig dropping each cable where it needs to start its journey. That saves me going back & forth between rig & cable box.

Be methodical, if not clinical

It typically takes me 55 minutes to load in & setup my entire rig:
One bin
2 active tops
Gigabar
Quad phase hp
Hazer
2 clusters
2 scanners
2 equinox power flowers
1 washfx
Folding screen

Doing it tidily takes longer though especially if I have to spread out on a large stage.

I've still not used any of my overhead bars in anger yet. That's a job for the new year I think.

I reckon my Gigabar is going to be replaced by 2 chauvet washfx units & the scanners are going to be sold on.
