WHERE I CAN PLUG IN.

DESIGN. PROGRAMMING. INTEGRATION. REHEARSALS. TOURING

Every show is different.
Sometimes you need someone to design the system. Sometimes you need someone to build it. Sometimes you just need someone who can walk into rehearsal, understand what's happening musically, and make the whole thing work.
LiveBytes can step in wherever you need it.

DESIGN

"We need a playback system."

01

Before the first cable is plugged in, there's a lot to figure out.
I design playback and performance systems around the artist, the music and the realities of touring — from simple Ableton rigs to complex multi-computer systems integrating instruments, MIDI, networking, vocal processing and show control.

I CAN HELP WITH

- Playback system design
- Touring rig design
- Purchasing, building and assembly
- Ableton architecture
- Computer & interface configuration
- MIDI & network infrastructure
- Redundancy and failover

THE RESULT

A system designed to serve the show - not the other way around

Ableton can be a playback machine - Or it can be an instrument.
I build shows where Ableton becomes part of the performance — handling playback, instruments, MIDI, automation, transitions, effects and interaction with the musicians on stage. This moves any performance away from a A to Z playback show and guarantees creative and memorable live performances.

"We need someone to build the Ableton show."

02

PROGRAMMING

- Ableton Live programming
- Playback programming
- MIDI programming
- Instrument & performance setups
- Automation
- Session architecture
- Show control
- Custom hardware and software solutions
- Redundant playback systems

I CAN HELP WITH

THE RESULT

A unique show that is musically flexible, technically robust and ready for the road.

INTEGRATION

"We need everything to talk to everything else."

03

Modern live shows are systems.
Computers, MIDI controllers, instruments, audio interfaces, networks, vocal processors, lighting, video and show control all need to behave as one coherent machine.
I design and integrate the technology behind that system.

I CAN HELP WITH

- MIDI systems and networking
- Timecode, OSC & control systems
- Vocal processing
- Hardware integration
- Inter-computer communication
- Remote control

THE RESULT

Less friction backstage - more freedom
on stage

Rehearsal is where the system meets the music.
I can work alongside artists, MDs and production teams to refine the technical setup while the show develops — adapting sounds, arrangements, controllers, playback and workflows as the performance takes shape.

"We need someone who understands both the music and the technology."

04

REHEARSALS

I CAN HELP WITH

- Rehearsal programming
- Playback operation
- Musical problem solving
- Instrument integration
- Performance workflow
- Show refinement
- Artists / MD support

THE RESULT

Technology that supports the performance rather than getting in its way

TOURING

"We need someone who can operate, fix and maintain the system."

05

Once the show leaves rehearsal, things change.
Different countries. Different venues. Different stages. Different problems.
I can take the system on the road, operate the show and keep it running.

I CAN HELP WITH

- Playback operation
- Touring Tech
- System maintenance
- Show-day preparation
- International touring support
- System updates & modifications
- Emergency problem solving

THE RESULT

An exciting and unique show that works - night after night, city after city.

WHATEVER STAGE YOU'RE AT,
LET'S BUILD SOMETHING UNIQUE.
