Input List BuilderAuto-Generate from Stage Plots

Build a stage plot. Input-bearing elements and manual inputs create a sorted, numbered list; visual-only elements stay visual.

Free tier with watermark · Pro: $99 one-time


How It Works

Three steps. One shared source.

01

Build Your Stage Plot

Place instruments and microphones on the stage. Input-bearing elements create channels; amps, risers, furniture, and annotations remain visual unless you add an input manually.

02

Auto-Generated Input List

Channel numbers, names, mic/DI types, phantom notes, and stereo pairs follow your authored input data, with a practical editable K·S·H default order.

03

Export Anywhere

Export supported console files and PDF/PNG documents from the same plot. The preview states the limits of each workflow.


What's on the Input List

Practical crew fields, generated where source data exists and editable before export.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about input lists.

What is an input list?

An input list is channel-by-channel documentation of every audio source on stage. It lists channel number, source name, mic/DI type, stand type, phantom power requirements, and notes. Engineers use it to prep the console and communicate with the stage crew before soundcheck.

What is K·S·H order?

K·S·H means Kick, Snare, Hi-hat. load·in uses a practical, editable default order that begins there and groups related inputs. It is not a universal rule; rename or reorder any channel for your workflow.

How do I create an input list?

Build a stage plot in load·in and the input list follows source elements that define audio inputs. Instruments, microphones, DIs, and playback rigs can create channels; amps, furniture, infrastructure, and annotations stay visual unless you add a channel manually.

What should an input list include?

A useful input list includes channel number, source name, mic/DI type, stand type, phantom requirement, stereo, color, and notes. load·in derives fields where the plot or input data supplies them, and every field remains editable before export.

Can I export my input list to a console?

Yes. Native X32/M32 scene export is free; Pro adds the currently supported paid console workflows. Each export carries only the fields named in its preview, and console files should be verified in the official editor or target desk.

What is the difference between an input list and a patch list?

An input list documents what enters each channel. A patch list documents physical connections. load·in can record both, but native routing is written only where the selected console preview explicitly says so; it is not a blanket promise across desks.
