Dig My Rig--Let's see your setup!


Recommended Posts



Moved inside to a different room last week before the snow came. Currently we only have around two inches or so, but it did stick.

Gotta do something with it. Cheaper than a new cart, and not going to be in use at least for ten more years.

My latest rig as of last Sat night: Kronos LS and a MODX7 with Macbook Pro running Mainstage and a Key Largo :)

Latest iteration of my rig. A little Nord, accompanied by a smattering of Nord (Classic 76HA under NS2 73SW). I posted a similar image previously, but this pic shows my "gigging" stand (original Ultimate Apex), and there's a Rolls PM351 velcro'ed to the side.

I've strategically placed adhesive Neoprene strips on the lower board to allow the front edge of the upper to sit on it. The rear edge sits on a single Apex clamp with no arms:

I've also modified my pedalboard slightly - I've made a cutaway to enable it to sit tight against the stand. The rear edge of the pedalboard is also lifted from the ground to enable it to clear the Apex leg. It's shown slid a couple of inches right from its "gigging" position - not the greatest photo but hopefully makes the point.

And that's my entire rig. A rolling case for the 76, backpack for the 73, pedalboard and leads in a bag, case in the other hand makes for a single trip from car to stage.

 

Cheers, Mike.

Brilliant. So much to learn from the simplicity of setup/teardown and cable management. I think setting up some sort of pedalboard with ready-to-go cabling needs to be my next rig-related project. I just need to figure out a way to make it suitably customizable for the various iterations of my rig (depending on venue size or band I'm playing in).

Last night's rig. It was a holiday show. We played a mix of traditional jazz and smooth jazz arrangements.

 

CP4, Electro 4D, Key Largo, Roc N Soc stool, TT08As, K&M 18880 stand, MacBook Pro / MainStage, iPad Pro for reading charts

 

The E4D was only used as a midi controller (i.e., it's internal sounds weren't used). I'm just getting into using the laptop on gigs. For this gig, the software I used was Scarbee Rhodes, Komplete Session Strings, Komplete Session Horns Pro, and VB3 II.

That's an excellent, balanced rig. If you can't do it with that, take up spying on your neighbors with a drone until the trouble begins. You'd most likely prefer to sample or use physical modeling in software form, so you're covered. Superior mouse pad as well. :thu:

I notice your working 01Wfd with kindly envy. I had to give mine a Viking funeral because it reached a DNR state where the repair bill would greatly exceed the retail price. Add to that needing a part-time job on the side to pay for shipping it back & forth in an SKB case and I began hearing "Taps" faintly in the background. I still miss it a bit, but I don't miss the spartan display or boxes of floppies. It lives on, though because I Autosampled it to the bone. I'd like to read your set list for the rig, too. I'll bet it bristles with splits. :thu:

This is the setup I took to a free-improv gig last night:

 

The Expressive E Touche is next to the Novation controller, used it a bunch last night. Also, the Rhodes into the Eventide H9 is a killer combo.

Got a new monitor earlier this year, and a Rev2 for Christmas.

What is the brand of your curvy screen? I'm still debating in my studio if I need two 27" screen side by side or a very big one....I have the room between the two monitors...

Its an LG 34UC88. Nothing really special about it, but it has been a huge upgrade from the 27" flat I had. The monitor came with a utility that allows you to change the "configuration" of the monitor on the fly - for example, I can set it to split the screen, and Window automatically sees two monitors.

 

The curve is great. I spent a long time at Best Buy staring at the curved monitors before I bought this. I'm a believer now.

I think this one is about to shrink, but this has been my main rig for about 3 years now (although I usually use a modified CV instead of the A100) --
