INPUT LIST

A comprehensive 24 channel max input list and stage plot must be

provided at contract signing. Our stage dimensions are 12’ x 20’
with an 8’ extension on stage right, which is where our piano is
located. There is another small platform on stage left also which
should be avoided for lighting purposes. For most situations plan
your use for the 12x 20 area in the center, and should you require
additional space you may utilize the extension on stage right.
Please see attached diagram and mark as needed. Performances
must take place on the stage. IMPORTANT - The input list and
stage plot allow our tech staff to place the monitors and mics in
the proper locations, and test everything PRIOR to your arrival.
This saves everyone a lot of time.

AUDIO EQUIPMENT

We use a 32 channel, digital/analog sound system, offering 4

separate monitor mixes. There is one, in house, wireless device. If
additional wireless mics or devices are important to your
presentation you must provide them, or we can arrange rentals.
Equipment rental fees will be deducted from your fee if applicable.
There are a total of 4 direct boxes in house. Our technician will go
over your input list requirements and discuss any changes that are
necessary. In most cases we can provide what is needed, but in
some cases, you may desire to bring something special. This
should be coordinated with our technical staff beforehand. We also
have 8 Manhassett style music stands, stand lights, chairs as
needed, mic stands, and guitar stands.

GUEST ENGINEERS

Since our system is a complicated, (hybrid recording/live rig), we

prefer our technicians handle the technical operations, but we will
do our best to interface and collaborate with your engineer to make
sure your needs are met. Our staff is extremely knowledgeable and
qualified to mix and record any show and know the unique aspects
of the room and equipment. If there is a problem, they can usually
solve it quickly. In the event of a dispute with multiple engineers,
our staff shall be empowered to make the deciding call. If a
recording is being made, the work is only guaranteed if our staff
performs the work.

 PROJECTOR

There is a 10’ projector screen in 16x9 aspect ratio format and

projector. During the show, artist’s logos can be projected onto
screen if desired. We can also create a graphic if needed at no
charge. Please email logos and projector art to
cortezguitar@earthlink.net.

make unauthorized copies of the recordings to distribute to the
general public or advertise future events without Venue’s written
consent. To do so would be a violation of this agreement.

quality recording, with a wide range of affordable options
depending on your needs. Those include multi-track audio

pricing and offer a range of all-inclusive package deals and
discounts. We are also available for closed recording sessions.

With so many options it can be challenging but Chris Cortez will

carefully explain all the options available, pricing, and translate
the technical jargon if necessary. Please contact Chris at
cortezguitar@earthlink.net or 713-775-2080 to make arrangements
to record your event.
