A Hole Tech Specs - April 2025
A Hole Tech Specs - April 2025
Our setup is pretty typical of what you'd see in a 200-300 cap room in the early-mid 2000's. We have an analog setup that can accommodate up to 22 stage inputs. Our mains are a stereo pair of custom-built, three-way cabinets. Though slightly modified, these served as the main PA in The Maintenance Shop from the early 90's up through 2017, if you're familiar with that space.
We currently have one stage monitor, but can source a second for your show upon request. The stage here is small, and you're right next to the PA. 1-2 wedges is workable for most shows. If you have an IEM rig that allows you to mix your own ears, you're welcome to bring it.
Due to our extremely limited FOH footprint and the proprietary nature of our setup, we generally do not accommodate guest engineers or consoles. If you feel accommodations are truly necessary, please let us know when you book the show.
Though not strictly tech-related, I feel it's worth mentioning here that we have an easy, no-stair load-in. Additionally, the basement has a custom ventilation system built for the express purpose of pumping as much fresh oxygen as possible from outside into the room and onto the stage. This goes a long way toward making the basement surprisingly comfortable for shows.
