Rig Builder V2

🎤 The Live Sound Rig Builder V2.0: Your Gear Planning Tool

This tool is not the end all be all gear list, but rather what I see most as a working sound engineer in the field. I will be updating the builder as I find new common and recommended gear, as well as updating prices (USD) monthly.

Stop Guessing. Stop Hoping You Get the Right gear!

Are you tired of juggling multiple tabs and spending hours trying to figure out the perfect PA system for your gigs? Whether you run sound for medium sized bars, manage your cover band's rig, or just need to track your gear for insurance, this V2.0 Rig Builder spreadsheet is here to help.

Created by a working live sound engineer, this spreadsheet turns gear planning from a chore into a simple, revenue generating process.

What This Tool Does For You:

• Custom Rig Building: Use the dropdown menus to mix and match mixers, mains, subwoofers, and microphones from top brands like Behringer, QSC, EV, and Shure. See the total cost update instantly.
• Track True Value: Pre loaded with the most current Manufacturer's List Prices for over 50 pieces of gear (including the X32, WING, and K12.2s). Know the true, insurable value of your entire system.
• Ready Made Rigs: Planning for a specific budget? Use the Rig A, Rig B, and Rig C templates for quick, proven gear combinations.
• Direct Access Links: Every piece of gear listed is linked directly to the product. Click the link next to your desired item to buy it right away, supporting my channel (and the creation of future CBA content) through the included affiliate links.
• Disclosure: Clicking on any gear link helps support my channel. As an Amazon Associate, and through other affiliate programs, I earn a small commission on qualifying purchases made through these links. This is at absolutely no extra cost to you!
