Make the example your rider.
Before you send it
- Replace generic performer names, count every source and verify phantom power against the equipment you bring.
- State who supplies microphones, DIs and stands.
- Add your actual production contact only after reviewing what recipients will see.
Ask the venue
- Positions describe the setup, not a guaranteed stage fit.
- Ask about usable dimensions, risers, power, changeover time and the available monitor buses.
- Stereo IEM mixes need separate left/right outputs.
