Real World Applications
By Dave Stiles
DAVE STILES began his audio career in 1981 in Newcastle, Australia with the band DV8.
In 1984, operated a solely owned Addsound company, servicing local and regional touring acts. Clients included James Morrison & the 10 Part Invention, the Doug Anthony All-Stars, James Barnes, Big Pig, and many others.
A shift in entertainment trends in the mid 1990’s forced the closure of Addsound. Moved to live in Thailand in the year 2000. Toured for 3 years locally around the tourist resorts and regional Asian countries , roadtesting components from Empad, with a band called Flow.
Since then worked casually as freelance Mix Engineer and System Tech specializing in System Tuning and Alignments, and custom DSP presets for a variety of local speaker manufacturers, working for shows and festivals in Thailand over the last 10 yrs. Shows include annual Thai Royal family tributes.
Production Manager for the Asia legs of WWE (wrestling) World Tour Spectacular 2005-2007
Semi-retired/full time dad since 2007 till present.
Started CMS digital mix systems early 2011 servicing local hire and sales markets.
