Setmixer Launches Venue App to Support Grassroots Music Venues
We’re excited to announce the launch of our Venue App, designed to give grassroots music venues across the UK greater control over their recording systems, finances, and growing archives of live performances. This app is a key part of our mission to help transform the live music recording process and empower venues to thrive in today’s digital world.
Giving Grassroots Venues the Tools They Need
Grassroots venues play a crucial role in the UK music scene, nurturing emerging artists. However, many struggle with limited resources. Our Venue App aims to change that, giving venues the tools to better manage their live recordings and improve their operations.
"Grassroots venues are where tomorrow’s music stars start their journeys. Our Venue App gives them the resources they need to succeed in the digital age," says Pascal de Mul, Founder and CEO of Setmixer.
Key Features of the Venue App
The Venue App is built to streamline venue management and give venues the power to manage their recording and finances more efficiently. Here’s what it offers:
Live Recording Management: Venues can easily monitor live streams, adjust settings, and set prices for multitrack recordings—all from a single dashboard.
Financial Control: Track revenue, manage earnings, and make data-driven decisions based on detailed financial analytics.
Music Archive: Access a growing archive of live performances recorded at the venue, creating a valuable resource for both venues and artists.
How Setmixer Works
Our system installs permanent, automated recording equipment in venues, capturing high-quality multitrack recordings of every performance. These recordings are processed overnight and made available to artists within 12 hours. Artists can use these recordings to promote themselves, sell multitrack stems, or share with fans—all while venues share in the revenue with no upfront costs.
Supporting Grassroots Venues
With over 5,000 performances recorded in 38 venues across the UK, Setmixer is already making a difference. We’ve earned the support of the Music Venue Trust, which sees our approach as a way to support grassroots venues and emerging artists who can't afford traditional studio time.
From Grassroots to Greatness
Through our “From Grassroots to Greatness” initiative, we’re supporting the next generation of artists, like Ed Sheeran, Coldplay, and Adele, who all started in grassroots venues. Our goal is to expand to 500 venues by 2025, capturing performances from 340,000 artists and reaching 37 million fans.
What’s Next?
The Venue App is available to all our current venue partners, with new features being added throughout 2025. If you're interested in learning more or scheduling a demo, visit Setmixer.com or contact us at venues@setmixer.com.
