Livehouse venues bring raw music close to the crowd, creating a lively, exciting atmosphere. Behind every good show is a solid audio setup that handles sound, lighting, and gear. In this guide, we’ll cover the core equipment you need for a Livehouse setup and show how these parts function together in real environments.
But more than just products, Jingyi Audio also offers a one-stop solution — from product selection and customization to fast delivery — so you can get a setup designed exactly for your Livehouse and your workflow, with minimal hassle.
Whether you run a venue, work on sound, or are a musician preparing for small to mid-sized shows, this guide helps you understand what matters most and how to get it done smoothly.
Key Takeaways: Your Livehouse Audio & Lighting, All in One
● Essential gear: XLR, instrument, Speakon, DMX, Ethernet, snake cables, stands, adaptors
● One-stop service: consult → customize → test → ship (7–15 days) → install support
● Perfect sync: sub-ms audio via Dante clock + Art-Net Sync packets
● Fast setup & fixes: color-coded, modular cables, hot-swap connectors, one-click configs
● Proven reliability: 30+ years’ experience, ISO/CE/RoHS certified, global support
1.XLR Microphone Cables – Your Main Audio Connection
XLR cables carry balanced audio signals, keeping vocals and instruments clear and free from interference.
Typical needs for a small band might include:
● 3 vocal mic cables
● 2–3 more cables for guitar amps or drums
Jingyi Audio supplies heavy-duty XLR cables with durable connectors and high-quality copper to withstand heavy use.
2.Instrument Cables – Clean Tone from Your Instruments
3.Speaker Cables and Connectors – Power for Your Sound
Speaker cables carry power signals, like Speakon connectors for passive PA speakers and ¼” cables for monitors. Speakon’s locking design avoids disconnections mid-show.
Jingyi Audio’s rugged Speakon cables and connectors ensure safe, reliable power delivery in every setting.
4.DMX Cables – Controlling the Lights
DMX cables transmit digital signals for lighting control. Use 3-pin or 5-pin DMX cables with the right impedance to avoid flickering.
Jingyi Audio produces DMX cables built to industry standards, making lighting control stable and worry-free.
5.Ethernet Cables – For Digital Audio and Remote Control
Digital mixers and networked gear use CAT5e or CAT6 Ethernet cables for sound and data. Jingyi’s flat and round Ethernet cables are durable and flexible enough for stage use.
6.Snake Cables – Keeping Stage Wiring Simple
Snake cables bundle many inputs into one, reducing clutter and speeding up setup. Jingyi Audio’s multi-channel snake cables help engineers keep stage wiring neat and efficient.
7.Stands – Holding Your Gear Steady
From mic stands to speaker and lighting stands, Jingyi provides stable, adjustable stands with strong clamps and weighted bases suited to live environments.
8.Adaptors and Small Accessories – Little Things That Fix Big Problems
Adapters, Y-splitters, right-angle plugs, cable testers, and more — Jingyi stocks a wide range of handy accessories to solve last-minute connection or space issues.
9.Bulk Cables – For Permanent Installs or Big Builds
For venue wiring and installations, bulk cables offer cost-effective solutions. Jingyi Audio supplies professional-grade bulk cables in all the key types (XLR, speaker, DMX, Ethernet), ideal for contractors or venue upgrades.
A One-Stop Solution for Live Lighting & Audio Sync That Actually Works
When you connect professional audio and lighting networks properly, Jingyi Audio’s complete service helps you get accurate, stable lighting and audio sync through these steps:
1. Understanding Your Needs & Picking the Right Gear
– We start by talking about your Livehouse size, what kind of shows you run, your lighting setup (DMX/Art-Net), and audio gear (Dante/AVB).
– Then we suggest the right network cables (CAT6A STP), DMX cables, and connectors that keep 120Ω impedance and low delay over long cable runs.
2. Custom Work & Testing Prototypes
– We make cables the exact lengths you need, with the right Ethernet connectors (RJ45→Neutrik etherCON) and DMX 3-pin/5-pin connectors. Everything plugs in and works right away.
– We test everything with Dante Controller and Art-Net timecode tools (ArtTimeSync) at your venue to make sure the audio clock and DMX signals sync perfectly.
3. Network Clock & Signal Sync
– Dante’s precise clock becomes the master timing source for both audio and lighting. This gives you sub-millisecond audio sync across all Dante devices.
– We use Art-Net Sync or ArtSync packets to send a sync signal after each DMX universe goes out. This means every light fixture hits its cue at exactly the same time—no lag, no jitter.
4. Quality Checks & Fast Delivery
– Every cable goes through three rounds of testing before it ships. Our 100 m network and DMX cables have a bit-error rate below 10⁻⁹, so your signal stays clean.
– We ship when you need it: standard and custom orders go out in 7–15 days. We can split shipments too, so you won’t wait for gear.
5. Setup Help & Support
– Our engineers (remote or onsite) follow your network plan and wiring diagram to set up Dante subscriptions through Dante Controller and Art-Net patching at your lighting desk. Your cues and audio triggers will line up perfectly.
– We walk you through ArtTimeSync setup and show you how to switch between multicast and unicast modes. Your DMX fixtures will sync flawlessly to audio beats or timecode.
6. Ongoing Tweaks & Updates
– After your shows, we look at feedback and adjust network QoS settings to put Dante audio and Art-Net lighting on a dedicated VLAN. This cuts down on network traffic problems.
– We send firmware updates and cable care tips regularly. Your system stays running in a low-latency, high-reliability state.
Can These Devices Make Your On-Site Setup and Repairs Way Easier?
Yes, these devices and services can really make your on-site work smoother:
1. Everything Connects the Same Way
● We cut cables to your exact lengths and use matching connectors (RJ45→etherCON, 3-/5-pin DMX) with color coding. You’ll spot the right cable instantly—no more scrambling to cut or rewire stuff last minute.
● Every network, DMX, and audio cable gets labeled with batch numbers and what it does. Finding the right line takes seconds, not minutes.
2. Tested Before You Get It
● We test prototypes in real venues for signal quality and timing before shipping. No extensive checking needed when you unpack.
● Dante Controller and ArtTimeSync are already set up. Just load the profile and your audio-lighting sync works.
3. Quality Control That Actually Works
● Every cable goes through three rounds of testing before it leaves our factory. You won’t need to test each line on site—saves time and gear.
● Our bit-error rate stays below 10⁻⁹. That means way fewer signal problems to fix.
4. Swap Parts in Minutes, Not Hours
● Standard snake cables and modular XLR/etherCON pieces mean you replace one part instead of rewiring everything.
● Hot-swap connectors cut your troubleshooting time big time.
5. Help When You Need It
● You get complete network maps and wiring diagrams, plus our remote engineers walk you through any step. Videos and docs are right there when you need them.
● Big projects? We send engineers to your site for regular maintenance or emergency fixes.
6. Software That Sets Itself Up
● Pre-made templates for Dante Controller, ArtTimeSync, VLAN, and QoS restore your audio channels and lighting sync with one click. No tedious manual work.
● Just import the config file and your network runs at peak performance.
Here’s what this means for you: Instead of the usual “hunt for cables → test signals → tweak timing → replace broken parts” routine, you get a system that mostly works right out of the box. Your setup and maintenance time drops way down.
Here’s the thing: Jingyi Audio doesn’t just sell you hardware and walk away. We use proven network sync methods to keep your Livehouse’s audio and visuals locked together perfectly. The result? Shows that hit harder and feel more connected.
