Input list template: No guesswork at line check.

Free band input list templates as editable CSVs, with the source, mic or DI, stand, phantom power and supplier for every channel. Import one into the stage plot maker to print it with the plot.

What you get

  • Every connection in writing. Source, mic or DI, stand, phantom power and notes for each channel.
  • Who brings what, settled. Each channel says whether the band or the house supplies it.
  • Stereo pairs kept together. Pair and side columns keep left and right channels next to each other.
  • Edit it in any spreadsheet. Then import it, check the preview and print it with the plot on Letter or A4.

The actual downloadable CSV, one starter at a time. Shaded rows are a linked stereo pair.

A channel list you can edit.

Each CSV uses the editor’s source, performer, mic_di, stand, phantom, provided_by, notes, crowd, pair and side columns. Keep pair values equal across an adjacent left/right pair. Leave optional text blank when it is unknown; confirm it before the advance.

Import without losing your draft.

  1. Open a matching starter in the stage plot maker, so performer names already exist.

  2. Edit the CSV in your spreadsheet, then export CSV or TSV under 64 KiB.

  3. Open Import inputs, choose append or replace, and preview the rows.

    Map any unfamiliar headers and resolve performer matches.

  4. Review channel counts and warnings before applying.

    Reorder linked pairs together and confirm each performer’s channels on the diagram.

  5. Print the matching plot and input list on Letter or A4.

    Confirm microphones, stands, phantom power and monitor outputs with the house engineer.

Crowd microphones are labelled for IEM mixes only. A stereo channel pair and a stereo monitor mix describe different connections; check both.

Review incoming channels before applying them to the draft.

Check the preview before applying.

A successful preview shows each source, performer and stereo side. Resolve mapping errors and confirm the append or replace count before the import changes your draft.
