Daniella Peters

"It was a brilliant life changing technology."

Daniella Peters talks like someone who’s been side-stage since day one. And she works where a show either makes it or melts down: the narrow lane between budget, schedule, and trust. At Rat Sound, she turned chaotic festival mornings into repeatable wins. At HARMAN, she’s the call you make when a tour needs the gear, training, and backup to keep the mix calm and the RF clean. Her takes aren’t opinions; they’re the way crews actually move—what gets bought, what gets cut, what survives.

I worked with Rat Sound and Coachella since the second one.

She’s early to the next wave, too. Ask about immersive and she’ll skip the buzzwords and point to the rooms where it’s already landing, how touring will adopt it, and the support it needs to travel well. Same pattern IEMs followed: lock reliability and workflow, then the budgets follow.

In our film, Daniella is the ground truth and the map forward—why in-ears rewired the job of live audio, and how that shift grew an entire economy around it: makers, mold labs, RF wranglers, on-site scanning. She’s the connective tissue between the myth and the load-in.

The Bigger Picture
I’ve worked with Daniella for years. Through Rat Sound—and now HARMAN—she knows everyone and everyone knows her. Her job has been to take care of the world’s top touring sound engineers and make sure they had what they needed to succeed, including the best in-ears. For a time she even served as a digital in-ear scanner for Ultimate Ears at Coachella, scanning artists and engineers between sets.
Here’s why we’re lucky to have this speaker in our cast.
