The Stages Tour took in Johannesburg (Ticketpro Dome), Durban (ICC Durban Arena) and i Cape Town (Grand Arena, GrandWest) with the full technical supplied by Gearhouse South Africa.
"The main reason we have chosen DiGiCo consoles for the Josh Groban Stages tour was its scalability with a cohesive UI throughout the model range. There is no typical Josh Groban configuration. A show may be just Josh with piano or a trio which adds a guitar," said Beck "There have been shows where Josh has sung with an orchestra or orchestra and full electric band. We needed a console line that would allow us to move our work up or down in input list size without having to start from scratch every time."
"The DiGiCo platform helps us achieve our goal with it's straight-forward UI, ease of use, sonic quality, and scalability of input racks," added Hoff. "We love the stage rack sharing ability as it helps us meet our daily production/rehearsal schedule by allowing us to line check onstage while FOH is tuning and we know that if we have the input on stage, FOH will certainly have it as well."
