SCALER Unveils Live Show Production Secrets

Nick Berthoud and James Rushforth of SCALER have pulled back the curtain on how they turned their latest album, Endlessly, into a live show spectacle. The duo revealed their reliance on the Novation Peak synthesizer and a jaw-dropping 200-channel basement re-amping setup.

The Novation Peak: A Live Show Game-Changer

According to Berthoud, the Novation Peak has become a cornerstone of SCALER's live performances. "The Peak allows us to recreate the intricate textures and atmospheres of our studio recordings," he said. Rushforth added, "Its versatility is unmatched—whether we're crafting ambient soundscapes or driving basslines, the Peak delivers."

200-Channel Re-Amping: The Secret Sauce

The most surprising revelation was the duo's extensive use of re-amping. With 200 channels dedicated to this process, SCALER achieves unparalleled depth and richness in their live sound. "Re-amping lets us refine every detail," Berthoud explained. "It's like having a second studio on stage."

Behind the Scenes: Transforming Studio Tracks

Turning studio tracks into live show gems isn't easy, but SCALER has mastered the art. They meticulously remix each song, ensuring it translates seamlessly to the stage. "It's about preserving the essence of the album while adding new dimensions," Rushforth noted.
