Frequently Asked Questions

What is a technical rider?

A technical rider is a document that specifies all the audio equipment, stage setup, and technical requirements a performer needs for a live show. It includes your gear list, connection requirements, and stage layout diagram. Make Tech Rider lets you build one visually in minutes.

What should a technical rider include?

A complete tech rider includes your equipment list, connection requirements (XLR, MIDI, USB, RCA cables), stage plot showing physical layout, power requirements, and notes for the sound engineer. Make Tech Rider covers all of this with 17 equipment categories and 10 connection types.

How do I create a technical rider?

With Make Tech Rider, drag real audio products onto a visual canvas, connect them with correct cable types, and export the result. Choose from 118 products across 17 categories from manufacturers like Korg, Sequential, Moog, Arturia, Novation. The entire process takes minutes.

What is the difference between a technical rider and a stage plot?

A stage plot is a visual diagram showing where equipment is positioned on stage. A technical rider is a comprehensive document that includes the stage plot plus detailed equipment specs, connection requirements, and technical notes. Make Tech Rider combines both.

Do DJs need a technical rider?

Yes. A DJ technical rider specifies your required setup — CDJs, mixer, monitors, headphones, and all connections. It ensures every venue provides exactly what you need. Make Tech Rider includes all major DJ equipment from Pioneer DJ, Allen & Heath, Denon DJ, and more.

What equipment should be on a DJ tech rider?

A DJ tech rider typically includes CDJs or turntables, a DJ mixer, monitor speakers, headphones, and all required cables (RCA, XLR, USB). You should also specify power requirements and any special requests. Make Tech Rider has all of these products in its database.

How to create an input list for live sound?

An input list documents every audio channel needed at front-of-house. With Make Tech Rider, add each piece of gear to the canvas and connect them — the tool automatically tracks connection types (XLR, DI, etc.) so you can export a clear signal flow diagram for sound engineers.

Can I use this for electronic music setups?

Absolutely. Make Tech Rider includes synths, drum machines, samplers, eurorack systems, audio interfaces, and effects processors from brands like Elektron, Moog, Roland, and Korg. You can map MIDI, CV/Gate, USB, and audio connections between all devices.
