Inputs list

Sources are provided by the band or venue as noted below.

We provide local stage XLR cabling and a 3 m multicore from our splitter. Drum microphones, the cables connecting the drums to FOH, and drum microphone stands are venue-provided by default. We may provide our backup drum microphones, the cables connecting the drums to FOH, and drum microphone stands if the venue requests them in advance; without such a request, they stay at home and are not brought to the gig. We do not provide a stagebox. Please provide a nearby house stagebox/snake on stage, within reach of our cables and multicore, plus the run from stage to FOH.
