API on Tour

You know API is a studio favorite, but did you know API gear is used for many major touring acts?

API is currently on tour with some of the biggest names in the music industry, including Bruno Mars and Katy Perry. API gear is included in the front of house set-up on Mars' 24K Magic tour, and both the TranZformer GT and LX are used by Mars' guitarist Phredley Brown and bassist Jamareo Artis. The 2500 stereo compressor is in the FOH gear rack on Katy Perry's current Witness tour.

Other recent tours API has been on the road with include Eric Church; API's 525 and 527 compressors are used in the tour's FOH. Tori Amos tours with 560 EQs while Green Day's front-of-house Engineer Kevin Lemoine has used API preamps on all the band's drums and vocals for some time. Other touring musicians who go live with API are Coldplay, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, who tour together with the 2500 in their FOH rack, and Martina McBride who carries 48 212L mic preamps on the road.
