L-Acoustics technology underpinned the concert sound system used on Oasis’ Live ’25 reunion tour, which concluded on November 23 in São Paulo, Brazil after 41 stadium shows in 17 cities. The large-scale setup was designed to deliver consistent coverage in both open-air and enclosed venues throughout the four-month run.
The main hangs featured K1-SB subwoofers over K1 and K2 arrays, with further K1-SB units deployed as side hangs. Rear 270° arrays extended K2 coverage around the stadiums, while KS28 subwoofers arranged in cardioid stacks provided low-frequency control on the ground. K3 cabinets were used as front-fills, with A15 units covering out-fill and shadow-fill positions.
Delay provision typically consisted of towers of K1 over K2, increased to six towers for the band’s hometown show in Manchester. Where stadium infrastructure allowed, multiple flown K2 delay hangs were also used. In total, the system was driven by 136 LA12X amplified controllers, with a P1 processor at front of house for tuning, monitoring and analogue backup.
Ben Webb, crew chief and systems engineer, said the system design combined advance modelling with on-site refinement.
He explained: “I’m tweaking the original system designs to match venue characteristics and any production changes. The latest version of Soundvision, particularly Autofilter, helps achieve consistent frequency response throughout very large and varied audience areas.”
Webb added that outdoor conditions significantly influenced daily adjustments. “We are touring through different weather conditions, which can change significantly from soundcheck to showtime, so Autoclimate has played an integral role in keeping the system stable throughout the full show,” he added.
