THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS 9.0

They play MUSIC in RESPONSE to the crowd

The ninth edition introduced the ability for the artists to loop the whole show from stage, the audio, the lights, lasers etc, robotics, show control etc.

By nailing the ability to loop the parts that work with each audience was a creative wish realised.

The Gravity rig is part looping playback, part artist performance, part show control and is all immersive for the audience.

PET SHOP BOYS

Clean and serene stage for all performers

Each and every performer's performance output was exclusively digital from stage to mixing.

Digital lines from performance software to speaker cables. Within this brief we also cleared the stage clear of unnecessary kit, and made this rig the best so far for The Pet Shop Boys.

Built for running and combining the 5 MADI streams for the 5 performers with 96khz 24 bit digital audio.

PENDULUM

PENDULUM

Playback, Keys, Autocue and live vocal proccesing all with full A/B redundancy switching

We designed and built a compact and lightweight rig that covers all playback, keys, autocue and live vocal processing duties. All aspects achevieving full A/B redundancy switching. All housed in two of Gravity’s unique sleeves.

All Easily handled by 2 Mac Book Pros. All protected and easily transported in 3 rugged airport friendly pelis cases.

We had worked with Pendulum on their first major tours and understood the artists highly specific requirements. Together with the current technician a highly resiliant and fully capable Gravity Rigs design was made and implemented.

As with all Gravity designs the build quality and finishing is second to none. Equipment choices made from proof of durability and realiabilty.

We upgraded PSUs where needed, installed our own rack mountable power distros. We and delivered whilst spending a day with the tech team for demonstration and knowledge transfer.

The MainStage keys and midi system features multiple satellite mini and micro sleeves with locking patch panels, so the on stage midi units are protected and easily patched.

The extensive yet compact midi network allowed Pendulum to keep all their midi functionality on their new easily flyable rig.

The Vocal processing is live, with a very acceptable roundtrip journey time using RME mic amps.

OVERMONO

A band in the box concept, flexible, quick and airport friendly, compact and ready to go

2 Boards Full  of Music tech Permanently Cabled in 1Airport Friendly Case .

Unique ‘electronic band in a box’…we populated 2 boards with their music tech, each one sits in own shelf in an airport friendly peli case.

The case’s custom foam has a void in the bottom for cables or computers. Uber quick to set up, flexible with the set top if need and the thickness of structual foam absorb any shocking behaviour from baggage handlers.

Working with Overmono allowed us to create this new and innovative solution for artists who want to do two or more shows a day and this rig has a very minimal set up time.

All Digital Keys and DJ Playback, 2 rigs in airport friendly boxes

On the back of the previous deign and build we created a highly miniturised keys and playback rigs.

With digital outs and switches on both, the sound for the keys could not be better.

Each mini rig can be used independently, however the MO for the artist was to route the keys output through the playback to allow crucial side chain compression.

3 Removable and Flyable Rigs in One Roadcase

A collection of rigs for all the band; keys, playback and dual lyric and song position autocue systems, all neatly housed in one road case.

Each system is in a removable sleeve that can be transported in a airport friendly peli case in the event of fly touring.



Additional to the 3 pairs of laptops, outside of the control centre, we distributed digital HD video reliably to 32 screens in and around stage.



Within the road case we housed a world class power control and distribution system that allowed power to flow even in the event of show power failure OR UPS failure.

DJ’s  Ableton Rig For Immersive Arena Shows

Eric’s team approached us to to design and build a simple but high spec ableton rig.

The brief specified it was to be capable for the high demands of his show and with a good degree of future proofing with logical and feasible  expansion options.

Using the core elements of our larger designs this rig is easy to operate and as with a lot of Gravity Rigs product, it features a compact footprint, rugged housing and airport friendly transport case.
