Community tour recreation — submitted by the IEM Rig community team as an editable IEM setup. This is a planned system, not a claimed customer build or physical test receipt.

Source-backed tour recreation

Metallica · M72 World Tour (2023–2026) · documented monitor system: Two Avid S6L consoles with E6L-192 engines.

The tour uses two gain-sharing S6L/E6L-192 monitor systems, Wisycom MTK982 transmitters and RF-over-fiber; a later snapshot documents 56 MPR50 receivers plus extensive Meyer Sound wedges.

Editable-plan boundary: One editable Rivage CSD-R7/Rio starting point stands in for the documented dual S6L/E6L system; PSM1000, split, pack count and exact stage I/O are illustrative.

U5L is the rack address — slot 5, left half of the shelf — so rows land on a specific box even when the rig holds several of the same model. Off-rack gear has no slot and carries none. Port names are the ones the builder wrote on this rig. Cable types resolve from the port pair at each end. 16 links match no cable rule and add no line to the cable list. 10 connections point at gear or ports that are no longer in the catalog and are not listed.
