2 1. TECHNICAL RIDER We play with In-ear monitors and provide in our own monitor mix. We have our own stagebox where all the signals (except drums) are centralized. All our connectors are XLR male and accept your XLR female connectors. To summarize, the sound technician only has to focus on 2 things when setting everything up: Miking the drums Connect our stagebox to your stagebox with your XLR male XLR female cables Stagebox Channel Behringer IEM Role as seen from mixing desk 1 Lead Vocal Input 1 2 Backing Vocal Input 2 3 Keyboard L Input 3 4 Keyboard R Input 4 5 Lead Guitar L Input 5 6 Lead Guitar R Input 6 7 Rhythm Guitar L Input 7 8 Rhythm Guitar R Input 8 9 Bass Guitar L Input 9 10 Bass Guitar R Input Lead Vocal FX L Input optional Lead Vocal FX R Input optional Clicktrack => Motu Output 4 None 14 Aux Vocal sound technician Output optional 15 Backingtrack L => Motu Output 1 Input Backingtrack R => Motu Output 2 Input 14 Line on mixing desk Please provide enough channels so all stereo channels can stay stereo.

Please turn volume to the wedges down if not in use. All devices listed above are examples. We have no problems in using different gear with the same quality from other brands.

4 A. PA REQUIREMENTS PA of a reputable brand o 24 Channels or more o Able to get a SPL of 103dB at the mixer Sound system of decent quality Effects Processor for vocals with at least compression and reverb (optional) Phantom power needs to be OFF. Some of our connected equipment doesn t like phantom power. B. MIXING GUIDELINES As we play with IEM s, we don t really need monitor wedges. If monitor wedges are present and connected, please keep the volume low or off. This way the vocals can be amplified to the max. The lead vocals must be mixed relatively loud. For lead vocals you can choose between the unprocessed signal (1) and the processed signal (13, 14) or make a mix of both. If you choose to use the unprocessed signal, you need to add some reverb and a fair amount of compression. Lead guitar (5, 6) can be mixed a little bit louder than rhythm guitar (7, 8). You can position them in the stereo image as they stand on stage, without panning too hard. Keyboard (3, 4) and backing track (11, 12) must be in stereo with full panning. Male backing vocals (2) are only present in one song ( Turn Away ) The concert starts with an intro where the backing track plays.

5 C. STAGE PLAN

6 The lead singer of the band also plays keyboard. She needs a long boom mic stand that reaches over the keyboard. A wireless microphone is best, because our singer walks around on stage and doesn t stay behind the keyboard. All signals are centralized in a splitter box on stage except for the drums. Although the drum kit has two bass drums, only the right one (viewed from drummer side) is used. There is a port hole in the bass drum. There are two hihats. If there are not enough channels/mikes the one on the right has priority. Optional return lines from desk to our mixer include 1 channel for vocal directions from audio engineer The yellow power outlets on the stage plan indicate where we need power. There are no amplifiers so the required amperage is very low.
