Formed in 2010, the band has three members, known as Egg No.1, Egg No.2, Egg No.3, plus a host of renowned guest vocalists. I>.
Based in Busan, G Audio is a renowned rental company, which selected the dLive S3000 Control Surface with DM32 MixRack for FOH, and ME monitoring system comprising ME-1 mixers for each musician and a ME-U hub, from its hire stock.
"Using dLive was a refreshing experience, the design is optimal and versatile for every engineer and live mixing application. dLive has a lot of useful features; additional inputs and outputs are available by connecting the DX32 expansion rack, and Dante, Waves, and MADI cards can be inserted to give dLive networking options. Moreover, we gained 96kHz resolution sampling rate, and the simple Cat5e connection enabled us to have a quick set up and break down,"The tour supports the launch of Standing Egg's latest album, Inner said Minkyu Kim, audio system manager at G Audio.
On this tour, Standing Egg comprised a grand piano, a keyboard, two acoustic guitars, percussions, bass, and a vocalist. Allen & Heath's ME system was adopted for a more delicate and clean monitor mix. Each band member was given a ME-1 personal mixer, enabling them to control their own mix, and the monitor engineer to focus more on the vocal mix. The ME-U hub is connected to the DM32 MixRack, and audio sources and power is supplied to each ME-1 via a single Cat 5e cable.
"ME personal monitoring system was a great choice for the wide dynamic range of Standing Egg's music. The system is extremely intuitive and easy to control, and it only took 10 minutes to train the band," said Minkyu Kim.
