Does anyone have any standard tech riders for a QHCF line-up (3 gtrs, violin, double bass) + vocals for venues/festivals supplying sound?

I came up with these, but I feel like I'm missing something:

Stage Requirements:

Soundboard with at least 8 discrete channels, separate controls for monitors, and appropriate power amps for the venue and monitoring system

Two (2) stage monitors, right and left

Five (5) XLR direct lines with quality direct boxes for instruments. The Soiree musicians usually bring their own DI boxes/devices with XLR DI outs, but venue must have back-ups.

Two (2) Shure SM-58 vocal microphones with on/off switches with boom stands

Three (3) folding chairs

Yes, I intentionally omitted the reference to the bowl full for green M&M's backstage!

    What you have here isn't much different...

  • You might want to add a feedback suppressor for larger venues.

    Plus I find the sound of SM58s to be a little harsh sounding, I know they are nearly indestructible but really there are way better mics for vocal.
