Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to frequently asked questions below, and don’t hesitate to get in touch. We’re looking forward to hearing from you!
Is TapGig an event or artist agency?
TapGig is an end-to-end platform which enables event organizers to create professional-quality remote-live shows. Event organizers can use their own audio/video engineers or book those services from us. TapGig supports also with artist booking while contracts with performers will be closed directly with the event organizer.
Why should I plan a remote-live show?
All TapGig founders are live musicians themselves who love the physical stage. But not every opportunity for a great live performance can be realized as a physical event due to budget, time, or logistical limitations. TapGig remote-live formats give you the following options:
- Unprecedented access to your favorite talent that would otherwise be too costly or not able to perform on site
- Unlimited options for seamless integration of live elements in event programs
- Audiences experience performers within their exclusive locations and actual context
What locations work for a TapGig?
You can plan your TapGig in any location with a stabile internet connection (20MBit up & downlink / no WiFi). Make sure you consider the lighting situation and provide for life-size video projection (LED wall / projector) and matching audio system. In our video gallery you can even find examples where all equipment was transported by a cargo bike with a battery and a 5G router. You can now make any location a stage or show venue.
Why is a TapGig live show more cost efficient?
The TapGig end-to-end platform consists of the TapGig Access Box and our cloud service. This replaces costly live-production equipment on site. Also, performer fees are typically much lower as a TapGig reduces time effort, travel & logistics.
