| Who's playing | Solo voice. His application calls it "live vocals over backing tracks." |
| Note | He was the first artist to raise the licensing question himself, on 26 Oct, before we had even answered it. That's a steward's instinct. 🌺 |
What he asked us for: "Just equipment to play the backing tracks."
| # | What | Out of his side | Into the floor | Board |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | His voice | — | SM58 on a stand → XLR | 1 ch |
| 2–3 | Backing tracks | unknown. "Files stored" could mean a phone (→ 3.5 mm or USB-C headphone out), a laptop (→ 3.5 mm or an interface), or a USB stick (→ needs a machine we don't have). | we will not write this connector until he tells us the device | 2 ch |
Two questions finish this rider: (1) what device holds the files? (2) does it have a headphone socket? If it's a phone or laptop with a 3.5 mm out, a 3.5 mm → dual ¼" cable solves everything and he should pack one.
Channels on the board: 1 (voice) · 3 if a track lane is used.
(the one place we say "stage" — it's the technical word. Everywhere else: the floor, the circle.)

He is cooperative and early; the open items are ours to chase, not his fault. #NOONEISEVEROUT.
