Playback system rentals for touring bands

Professional playback rigs for tours with tracks, click, and timecode. Reliable systems that run night after night without drama.

What we rent

Bring your own laptop or rent a complete turnkey system—either way, you'll get the infrastructure for reliable playback.

Rent the complete system:

  • Laptop or hardware playback device

  • Audio interface and cabling

  • Road case and power conditioning

  • Pre-configured software (Ableton Live, MainStage, QLab)

  • Backup computer with identical setup

Bring your own computer:

  • Professional audio interface

  • All cabling and connectivity

  • Road case for transport

  • Power conditioning and backup power

  • We'll help you configure your system for touring

All rentals include the infrastructure you need: interfaces, cables, cases, and accessories. Just bring your show files.

Redundancy and reliability

Playback failure kills shows. We build systems with backup paths so you're covered if something goes wrong.

What that looks like:

  • Dual playback systems with instant failover

  • Backup audio interfaces and cabling

  • Pre-show testing and validation

  • Spare parts included with rental

  • Backup laptop available (if renting complete system)

Your tracks play every night, or we haven't done our job.

Routing and integration

Playback systems need to talk to everything else: FOH, monitors, click to the drummer, cues to lighting, timecode to video.

We'll configure:

  • Multi-output routing for stems and tracks

  • Separate click and cue sends

  • SMPTE timecode output for video and lighting sync

  • Integration with your wireless IEM and RF systems

  • Dante or AES networking if needed

Tell us your signal flow and we'll build it. No guessing at soundcheck about what's going where.

Custom builds

Every production has different playback needs. We'll build systems that match your show's complexity—whether that's simple stereo tracks or 16-channel stem playback with video sync.

Custom configurations include:

  • Multi-computer systems for complex shows

  • Integrated MIDI control for lights and effects

  • Sample-accurate sync across multiple outputs

  • Specialized software configurations

  • Training and documentation for your playback operator

Working with tracks for the first time? We'll walk you through the setup and best practices so you're confident on the road.

Why rent a playback system

Reliability matters: Your laptop might run your demos fine, but touring is different. Professional interfaces, clean power, proper cabling, and backup plans make the difference.

Infrastructure without the investment: Get road-ready cases, quality interfaces, and proper routing without buying everything yourself.

Fly in light: International bands can rent a complete system or just the infrastructure instead of bringing gear through customs.

Location and pickup

Right off I-287 in North Jersey. We share a building with Ruby Stage rehearsal facility. Program your show files and rehearse with the actual playback rig before tour starts.
