love seeing this sort of stuff, we run something similar however for drums / mics/routing goes straight to FOH and we get a feed sent back to our rack which we can set to taste, admittedly less control, but less cables and with shared backline/drums is potentially quicker /easier by doing this we can get by with an xr18, less channels, and i think a 8u or 10u rack, would love to upgrade to a g4 iem setup at some point, it's a fair bit of coin however

Amazing video ! Thank you very much for taking the time to explain (and show the backside!). As both sound engineer and musician, this is really great info, as I'am currently in the process of building such rack myself. And I can confirm that as a FOH, what a pleasure to work with musician that are prepared like this ! It's the first time I see a splitted rack such as this one, and the idea is actually quite interesting ! I might take time to think about my rig and see if it would fit my workflow. Just wanted to address something about redundancy. I absolutely understand the idea of having redundancy on midi, computers fail often and its safer to have a backup. But in the end you say "Although there are a lot of things that could go wrong, everything is compartmentalized.". On the audio side of things, absolutely. Less looms : less risk of messing with the inputs, etc. But you only run the whole rack through one power supply, and we know that the second thing that fails after computers are power supply (mostly even before the rack). Why not having a surge protector with dual power supply ? This way you power your rig through two 16A lines, and you shoud be safe if power goes south. On more affordable rigs, I absolutely understand most people wont spend the extra money, but here, why (I mean, if you spent 20000$, maybe the extra 300$ are not so much of an issue) ? Is it the weight it would add to the rack? Or maybe you're touring big enough venues where you can trust the power supply ? Anyway, thanks again, a lot of good things to take !

You did it because you can, of course. I believe an artist should always strive for the best, but the main point is that ends must meet, if your band's earnings justify the investment it's a no brainer. That said, in my country that money is half the price of a modest house. We all know we buy music stuff mainly because music is everything in our lives and it matters a lot to keep the progress, more even than things making any sense financially.

@@KeyanHoushmandLivesure, happy to share. It’s based on an RME Babyface Pro audio interface and its built-in digital mixer. It’s tiny, almost fits in a pocket. Hooked up to it via ADAT a Behringer ADA8200 8in/8out port expander, it gives me a total of 10XLR in and 10 XLR out. A laptop sits on top of the rack; hooked to the babyface via USB. The laptop is used to run tracks, click/cues, AND as the keyboard module, so it sends 6 channels down the USB to the RME internal mixer. Sometimes it even runs instrumental tracks when a player is missing. The RME has a nice visual mixer on that laptop, we set up individual mixes for each IEM and output to FOH for keyboards.

@@KeyanHoushmandLivemy secret trick is - I don’t have splitters. Why? Our wireless mic receivers have dual outputs, the guitar processors also do, the keyboard/tracks also. So most sound sources have built in splitters, why carry another one. So the only splitter I need is for drum mics. could have one, just 4-8 channels, or simply not. We usually ask the sound guy to give us a stereo drum mix.

If you have a IEM rig, there’s a chance your mixer is going to be the one that runs the whole gig because it’s better than what is at the venue. It can be beneficial so you can actually hear yourself if that an issue for you now. It can still be used with a vocal only PA, you would just have to mic everything for your IEM rig and then only split the vocal to FOH.
