“The wireless and in-ear counts are enormous. “The DiGiCos are the only consoles that can do this show,” observes Jason Kirschnick, International Operations Officer and Global Project Manager at Eighth Day Sound, the sound-reinforcement provider for On The Run II. The five primary consoles on the tour use five DiGiCo SD-Racks, with a sixth used as a support rack. A DiGiCo SD12 console is also on hand to mix vocal rehearsals in dressing rooms.

In addition, another SD7 is on the tour to mix full-band rehearsals as set lists change and new songs or new arrangements are added (the duo’s hit album, Everything Is Love, dropped in the middle of the tour), and to mix and record writing sessions as inspiration strikes during this 48-city, four-month-long tour. The two stars are backed by a sizable combination of their individual bands, including an entire horn section, as well as backup vocalists and dancers, all of whom wear in-ear monitors, as well as wireless microphones for every vocalist.Īll of these elements are connected via an Optocore HMA fiber loop between two DiGiCo SD7 consoles for the FOH mix (one primary console and a second for use by supporting acts on the tour) feeding a d&b audiotechnik J-Series PA system, while four more SD7 desks are assigned to the monitor mixes. In that time, the music has become more complex and so has the stage show. CLEVELAND, Ohio – September 2018 – OTRII marks the first world tour together in four years for music’s power couple, Beyoncé and JAY-Z.
