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 stands for Kick, Snare, Hi-hat — the industry standard channel ordering for live sound. Kick and Snare are first because they matter most; the rest of the kit follows (toms, overheads, percussion), then bass, guitars, keys, and vocals. stage·left applies K·S·H sorting automatically when you build your stage plot.

How do I create an input list?

Build a stage plot in stage·left. The input list generates automatically from your stage layout. Every instrument you place becomes a channel — with name, mic/DI type, phantom power, and K·S·H sort order already filled in. No spreadsheet required.

What should an input list include?

Channel number, source name, mic/DI type, stand type, phantom power requirement, stereo pair status, color code, and notes. stage·left generates all of these automatically from your stage plot. You can edit any field before exporting.

Can I export my input list to a console?

Yes. stage·left exports native console files for X32/M32, Yamaha CL/QL, and dLive. Channel names, colors, and routing transfer directly — load the file via USB or network and your console is pre-configured.

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

An input list documents what goes into each channel (source, mic type, phantom power). A patch list maps physical connections — which input on which stagebox goes to which console channel. stage·left handles both: the input list is generated from your stage plot, and console export files include the physical routing.
