David Pilz Sound

THIS WAS 2025!

142 shows in 15 countries.

This sounds like an average when I look back to previous years but my 25‘ wasn‘t about quantity.
It was about personal growth and new paths I took, new things I tried, new goals I made. Most important was to take steps aside in order to take care of myself, facing fears I was avoiding for years or asking people more for help and opinions. I also did some of the biggest shows of my carrier which made this one truly special.

I am so greatful for my family, friends and of course that beautiful women in my life, supporting me on every step of the way.

Also a big thanks to the countless partners for the trust espacially .records and

I can‘t wait to see what 2026 has to offer and all the nice and fancy projects you guys will hit me up with. 😋

TOURDUMP -> Let’s go! 🤙

We are 7 shows into this years Guinness Irish Christmas with the trad legends and the thriving young band .trad

I do this tour for the 6th time now and it‘s smooth as butter this year. The professionalism and musical quality on this one is unreached and I am really happy to be on board again.

Also happy to be able to bring my Dlive along, because the reverbs and rooms on the RackUltraFX are just a perfect fit for all these quiet atmospheric parts.

We still have 15 shows to go before I fly out to the netherlands with my boys from to my last show of 2025 on the 21st of dec.

Let‘s go!

Julian from came over to our studio in vienna a couple weeks ago. He asked some questions about live sound and challenges on the road. It was something new to me to be in front of the camera.

The footage will be seen in a documentary very soon. Thanks for having me man!

The room in the picture is our live booth where I track bands, premix liveshows or just try new stuff for different projects. The current rig setup there is a Dlive S5000 Surface with a Dlive DM48 Mixrack.

This was my first ever show mixing Front of House and Monitors for Belphegor last weekend at Metalstorm in Luzern.

I‘m not going to lie, I was tense AF before the show. It was the first metal band I saw live when I was a teenage boy and the call came from out of nowhere.

I also expected a yamaha M7CL as inhouse desk (given a outdated venue rider) which was not the case. So I had the opportunity to mix a show on a brand new A&H Avantis which was quite nice cause I know the dlive inside out tbh it‘s almost the same workflow.

The Band has a highly professional crew with them and everyone welcomed me from the first moment as if I were there all along. The show went very smooth and I enjoyed every bit.

Thanks for the trust and professionalism Belphegor! See you hopefully soon again!
Btw! I am usually booked quite alot but always looking to work with new projects and get to know other crews and bands. If anyone needs a soundguy (with own desks and frequent traveller status) hit me up.
