Build a rack
you can actually stand behind.
Drop in real gear. Auto-wire the signal flow. Export a printable spec sheet anyone on the team can follow.
Built for the rigs you actually run.
IEM Rig is opinionated about the workflows it serves: touring monitor engineers, worship audio teams, theatrical sound designers, and playback rig builders. Pick the use case that fits and we'll walk you through a typical setup.
Built by musicians, for musicians.
From sketching a monitor world to delivering a final patch sheet, IEM Rig replaces the spreadsheets, Visio diagrams, and back-of-napkin math you used to juggle.
Drag-and-drop rack design
Pick from 264+ touring-grade components — wireless IEMs, digital mixers, stage boxes, splitters, audio interfaces — and build a rack to scale. Half-rack and full-rack widths, accurate U-heights, and live collision detection so your rig fits the case before it hits the loading dock.
Auto-wire signal flow
One click and the planner connects mic preamps to console inputs, console outputs to IEM transmitters, and antenna outs to distribution amps. Signal flow renders as a clean, color-coded diagram.
Power and weight calculator
Every component declares its idle and peak draw. The planner sums it across the rack and warns you before you trip a 15A circuit at the venue or break the back of your road tech humping a 100-pound case up the stairs.
Photo-to-rig AI scanner
Snap a photo of an existing rack and the AI scan identifies the gear, U-positions, and likely wiring. Edit from there instead of starting blank — perfect when you inherit a rig or want to recreate a touring partner's setup.
PDF patch sheets
Export a print-ready PDF: rack diagram, signal flow, full bill of materials with pricing, port-by-port patch list. Hand it to the venue, the freelancer who's covering, or your insurance underwriter.
Quick Start templates
Don't want to start from scratch? Tell us how many band members and the planner generates a touring-quality rig — IEM transmitters per performer, splitters sized to your channel count, properly tiered power distribution.
Public gallery + sharing
Share any rig with a single link. Publish to the public gallery at /g and let other engineers remix your design as a starting point. The community catalog grows when riggers share what actually works on real tours.
Validation that catches mistakes
The wiring engine flags incompatible patches (XLR into Speakon, 4-channel split feeding a 16-input console) before they bite you at soundcheck. Health warnings live on the action bar so you can see what to fix at a glance.
Browse the catalog.
Every component has its own page with full ports, weight, power draw, and pricing — fully indexed so you can find “Shure PSM1000 setup” or “Allen & Heath dLive C2500 ports” and land directly on the answer.
