Saving & Sharing
Your stage plots save automatically. Here is how to manage plots, carry a portable .show project between devices, and use the supported document and console exports.
Auto-Save
load·in auto-saves to your browser's local storage. Every change you make is saved instantly — there is no save button because you never need one.
- Your plots are available offline for editing.
- Free tier: up to 3 saved plots.
- Pro: unlimited saved plots, clean document exports, additional supported console workflows, DAW templates, and Pro export tools.
Browser-local plots can be lost if browser data is cleared. Export important work as a portable .show file and keep that file in a location you control. Add password protection when the project contains sensitive information.
Managing Your Plots
You can have multiple stage plots and switch between them. Here is how to manage them:
- New Plot: File tab → + New (or Menu → New) to start a fresh stage plot.
- Duplicate: File tab → Duplicate to make a copy of the current plot. This is great for creating variations of the same show — one for the full band, one for the acoustic set.
- Switch plots: Tap Menu → Load to see all your saved plots and switch between them.
- Rename: Tap the plot name to edit it. Use clear names like "Summer Festival - Main Stage" or "Jazz Night - Trio".
- Delete: File tab → find the plot you want to remove and tap delete.
Sharing with Your Team
There are several ways to get your stage plot to the people who need it:
Share Stage Plot
In the File tab, tap Share Stage Plot. This uses your device's native share functionality — email, Messages, AirDrop, Slack, or whatever sharing tools you have installed. Your team members get the stage plot as an image they can view on any device.
Share Input List
Tap Share Input List to share just the channel list in a clean text format. This is perfect for pasting into a group chat, email thread, or production document. The receiving person does not need load·in — it is plain text they can read anywhere.
Share a Portable Project
Export a .show project to carry the editable plot between the PWA and iOS app. A recipient opens the file in load·in. Use password protection before sharing projects that contain sensitive rider or contact information.
Export Formats
Beyond console files (covered in the Console Export guide), load·in exports your work in several formats:
A printable stage plot. Perfect for the tech rider, the production binder, or taping to the wall at FOH.
PNG
An image of your stage plot. Great for advance documents, tech riders, and email attachments.
.show
load·in's portable project format. Use it for backup and to move editable projects between the PWA and iOS app. Optional password protection is available.
CSV / TSV
Spreadsheet-friendly channel lists. Open in Excel, Google Sheets, or any spreadsheet tool for custom formatting or integration with other systems.
Wireless Channel CSV
A clean export of your wireless channels, frequencies, region, and band info for handoff, spreadsheets, or downstream RF planning.
