The portion of the rider covering technical production requirements: front-of-house PA system, monitor system, mixing consoles (FOH + monitors), lighting rig, backline (instruments, amps, drum kit), rigging points, video, power needs, and any special effects (lasers, CO2, pyro, confetti). Format varies: some artists send Word docs, others Excel spreadsheets, others structured PDFs. Comparing rider line-by-line against venue capabilities is one of the most common pre-show production tasks.
