ROCKTOPUS: Roll it on stage, plug in, turn it on. Ready to rock!

Ease of Use for FOH Engineers

For most Radio 45 shows, FOH engineers need to be aware of eight (8) audio connections:

• three (3) vocal channels
• five (5) instrument channels

Our rig is flexible and can be used with existing vocal mics, amps and a shared drum it when needed (festival event) and worked perfectly completely self contained.

The good news is that all connections are made in one place — the ROCKTOPUS rig — always positioned off of stage left.

All channels are routed through the X-Air Digital Mixer with all inputs and sends located at the rear of the unit — in two rows:

• Top row is for audio inputs (to get signals to the band’s in-ears)
• Bottom row is setup to feed signal to FOH
• Any signals input on the top row are immediately routed to FOH outputs on the bottom row.

FOH: Where to Plug In?

If Radio 45 is using their own gear (microphones, amps and drums) connect to outputs on the bottom row to get signals for FOH.

If Radio 45 is using your gear (shared microphones, amps or a shared drum kit) connect audio sends (usually monitor or aux sends) to the top row so the band car hear that channel in their in-ears.

Why ROCKTOPUS?

Typically an 8-channel audio snake runs from the rack unit across the front pf the stage or across the backline to get the instrument feeds. 8 channels — octo — ROCKTOPUS.
