technical rider
We try to keep our technical rider as straightforward as possible. If any of the requirements below cannot be met, we're happy to find a solution together.
| Channel | Signal |
|---|---|
| 1 | Kick |
| 2 | Snare |
| 3 | Rack Tom |
| 4 | Floor Tom |
| 5 | Hi-Hat |
| 6 | Overhead L |
| 7 | Overhead R |
| 8 | Bass (DI preferred) |
| 9 | Guitar 1 |
| 10 | Guitar 2 |
| 11 | Lead Vocals |
| 12 | Backing Vocals |
| 13 (optional) | Drummer Vocals |
| 14 (optional) | Backing Vocals 2 |
We require at least two vocal microphones (lead vocals and backing vocals).
A third microphone for our drummer is optional, but appreciated.
We usually rehearse with one single mic for backing vocals, shared between one guitarist and our
bassist.
If guitarist and bassist can each have their own microphone, that works just as well.
We are able to provide our complete backline, including the drum kit,
if required.
Whenever possible, we prefer to use the provided backline. In that case,
we'll bring our instruments, amplifier heads, pedalboards and breakables
(snare drum, cymbals and pedals).
Our amplifier heads have the following impedances:
| Amplifier Head | Supported Speaker Loads |
|---|---|
| Engl Powerball |
16 Ω 8 Ω (1×8 Ω / 2×16 Ω) 4 Ω (1×4 Ω / 2×8 Ω) |
| Fender FM100H | 4 Ω minimum |
| Item | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Kick Drum | 1 |
| Snare Drum | 1 |
| Rack Tom | 1 |
| Floor Tom | 1 |
| Snare Stand | 1 |
| Tom Stand (for Rack Tom) | 1 |
| Cymbal Stand | 2–3 |
| Hi-Hat Stand | 1 |
| Double Bass Drum Pedal | 1 |
| Hi-Hat | 1 |
| Crash Cymbal | 1 |
| China Cymbal | 1 |
| Trash Splash | 1 |
Floor wedges are sufficient.
Three 230 V outlets at the front of the stage:
Our guitars are played through mic'd speaker cabinets. For bass, we prefer using the DI output of our amplifier head. Alternatively, the bass cabinet may be mic'd.
G1/2 = Guitar 1/2
B = Bass
D = Drums
V = Vocals
opt. Mic = optional Mic
PB1/2 = Pedalboard 1/2
BP = Bass Pedal
DI = Bass DI Out
We have one intro track to be played before our set and one outro track to be played after our last song. We will provide both audio files on-site (e.g. via Google Drive) before the show.
