Duo stage plot template

Two players side by side, each with an instrument and a vocal. It is the simplest plot with two monitor mixes, which is why it is worth drawing: the engineer needs to know you want separate mixes, not one shared wedge.

The keys come in on two channels, left and right, so this small plot already needs five inputs.

What it asks of the venue

This plot needs 5 channels, which fits easily on a small club's 16-channel desk. It asks for 2 monitor mixes and 1 power drop (places that need an outlet).

Everything on it is the band's own, so the venue only needs to provide the mics, DIs, stands, cables and monitors in the lists.

Making it yours

  • If your keys are mono, delete the right channel so the venue doesn't run a cable for nothing.
  • Sharing one wedge is fine in small rooms. Say so in the notes, and the engineer has one less mix to build.
