Hi, I'm David.

Live sound · FOH / MONs · System design · Fullstack developer

I'm a live sound engineer, and I genuinely love live music.

I help artists communicate what they want the audience to feel: clarity and headroom so the mix translates to the room, working musically rather than mechanically, and being kind and good to work with.

I take care of the details too: RF, patching, documentation, handovers. And when it helps the show, I build the tools myself. That's what the rest of this garage is for.

CV

Sound engineer for live shows. I take care of the room, the band, and the things that have to be true before anyone walks in.

Things I've built

Gigbuddy

Plan. Coordinate. Deliver.

A command center for live event production. Build input and output lists, design stage plots in 3D, plan trunks and stageboxes, generate picking lists, and share it all with the rest of the crew in real time.

Next.js · TypeScript · Three.js · Socket.IO

AML · AudioMIDI Link

MIDI over any audio line.

Sends MIDI and show-control data through ordinary audio paths (analog XLR, Dante, MADI) by encoding each event as a burst of tones. Kind of like Timecode via LCT but for MIDI.

Rust · Goertzel DSP · MFSK-16 · Tauri

Integrations

The boring, but necessary.

A show is so much more than just and artist and their audience. We all use so many systems that were never introduced to each other. I like building the bit in the middle.

For Växjö Scen I connected their website with Fortnox, Minutemailer and Google Sheets. A new customer from the site lands in all three. They are continously synchronized, so a phone number fixed in one place doesn't stay wrong in the others.

Receipt Forwarder is the one I'm building now. I'm tired of forwarding and chasing receipts and invoices. This is an attempt to automatically send them where they belong right away. No matter how many inboxes you have.

The Beerculator

Calculate exactly how many beers you need to drink. An easter egg hidden inside Gigbuddy. Science. Use at you own risk.
