Stage Patch & Musician Connections
Interactive stage inputs, physical stageboxes, personal monitoring, and Thulsi's DP48/Ableton setup.
No P24 in use
A live show powered by a whole lot of technology.
Our musicians make the magic. Here's the invisible engineering that helps every note reach the audience.
32Stage input slotsTap for the story
Vocals, instruments, keys, tracks, click and cues are organized across the WING input map. Stereo pairs may share a single active fader.
3Digital stageboxesTap for the story
One SD16 and two SD8 boxes provide 32 continuously numbered stage inputs: SD16 1β16, first SD8 17β24, second SD8 25β32. Each physical connection is checked before soundcheck.
2Digital consolesTap for the story
Behringer WING manages stage inputs and monitor routing. The X32 handles front-of-house mixing, linked over AES50.
16Ultranet mix channelsTap for the story
The Ultranet hub distributes 16 available source channels to the musicians' P16 personal mixers. Current source assignments must be checked against the WING show scene.
1Conductor's DP48Tap for the story
Thulsi β lead keyboardist, conductor and Ableton Live stems manager β has a dedicated Midas DP48 connected to WING AES50 C.
3Sennheiser UHF IEM systemsTap for the story
Two Sennheiser EW IEM G4 transmitters and one XSW IEM share an AC 41-US antenna combiner and a directional shark-fin antenna.
3NUC IEM Β· 5 GHzTap for the story
Three additional NUC in-ear monitoring systems operate in the 5 GHz band. Their frequency planning is separate from the Sennheiser UHF IEMs.
9Xvive IEM units Β· 2.4 GHzTap for the story
Nine Xvive 2.4 GHz IEM units are coordinated using six RF channels. Their 2.4 GHz channels are not the same as WING/Ultranet audio channels.
6Xvive wireless channelsTap for the story
Six distinct 2.4 GHz channels serve nine Xvive IEM units; verify shared-channel assignments and listen for local Wi-Fi / Bluetooth interference.
10Sennheiser dynamic vocal micsTap for the story
Ten Sennheiser dynamic microphones for singers, from the e835 through e935 family, support the live vocal line-up.
RFWireless mic extensionsTap for the story
Sennheiser wireless microphone extensions provide flexibility for wired microphones. The exact extension systems and RF frequencies must be confirmed separately from the IEM bands.
64GBMacBook Pro memoryTap for the story
The M5 Max / 64 GB MacBook Pro specified for the production provides computing headroom for live audio processing. Confirm the actual show laptop at load-in.
LIVEWaves processingTap for the story
Waves SuperRack Performer runs real-time Waves plug-ins on the MacBook Pro as part of the X32 front-of-house processing workflow. Plug-in count and latency depend on the current show session.
β¨The journey of a single note Β· Animated!Open the backstage magic β
Every great performance begins with a musician.
An original, consistent piano melody gains guitar and drums in sync, ending with a recorded audience applauding. Sound plays only when enabled; the default recording requires internet unless a local recording has been imported. Conceptual flow, not a literal signal-by-signal wiring diagram. SuperRack Performer runs Waves plug-ins on the M5 Max MacBook Pro (64 GB). P16 and DP48 are separate monitor branches. No P24 devices.

Authoritative reference: WING Edit screenshots captured November 6, 2026. WING strips 1β32 and AES50 A sources are separate concepts; A14/A16/A31 have mismatched or unconfirmed input sources: stereo source pairs 23/24 (Ivan Keys), 25/26 (Raj Guitar), 27/28 (Backing), and 29/30 (Thulsi Keys) are shown as single stereo faders. Historical only: X32 spreadsheet stagebox groupings and P16 channel/bus list. Verify physical sockets and current Ultranet patch before cabling. No P24.
Digital stage input map
Current WING Edit channel/source labels (Nov 6, 2026). Physical stagebox groups are historical workbook references; sockets and P16 channel feeds need verification. The right leg of a stereo source is not a separate active fader.

WING source evidence
Physical stagebox sockets
Stageboxes use continuous input IDs: SD16 1β16 Β· SD8 #1 17β24 Β· SD8 #2 25β32. The input labels follow your numbering standard; the exact physical connections still require verification.
Tap a musician
Profiles use newer WING channel labels. P16 assignments from the older X32 workbook are not considered current. Verify physical sockets and P16 feeds against the live patch.
Thulsi
Dedicated Midas DP48 via WING AES50 C. Verify stereo keyboards, Ableton backing/stems, click/cues, and DP48 group/source assignments against the live WING scene. Keep click/cues out of FOH Main if that is how the approved show scene is routed.

Ultranet output
Distribution
Each musician's station
P16 hub wiring remains a physical verification task. Do not assume the legacy X32 P16 channel/bus spreadsheet is the current WING Ultranet mix. Ultranet is not ordinary Ethernet networking.
Thulsi only
As actually patched
Thulsi controls keys, Ableton stems and show cues. Verify the exact DP48 group mapping, power and audio outputs during line check.
These three Sennheiser UHF IEM systems are distinct from Ultranet audio distribution. Three NUC IEM systems use 5 GHz, while nine Xvive IEM units use six 2.4 GHz RF channels. Plan and test each wireless band separately; the Shure-to-WSM workflow applies to the Sennheiser UHF system.
Stage connection verification
A helper may check tasks, but only the sound lead can approve the final wiring/monitor routing.

Three systems
Historical home-test frequencies β not approved for this venue
G 587.000 / A 537.000 / XSW 488.000 MHz. These are excluded under the saved Ananda Mandir planning restrictions.
TV channel exclusions
Review local TV broadcasts before accepting IEM frequencies. A ZIP code provides only a rough location; use venue coordinates with an authorized lookup provider whenever possible.
Import Shure TV research
Upload a Shure Wireless Workbench .cxl, or load the saved Ananda Mandir sample. The app automatically extracts flagged UHF TV channels and their MHz ranges.
Review automatically populated exclusions
The app labels Shure-flagged channels as Protected / blocked. Unflagged channels remain Unknown until independently verified. Check the affected IEM bands below.
Download WSM exclusion CSV
After reviewing the exclusions, download the proposed blocked-band file. This does not alter WSM or authorize transmission.
How the helper imports this into Sennheiser WSM
- Save a separate backup of the WSM project.
- Open Professional Setup β Frequencies/Bands.
- Click Import list... in the upper list (NOT the spectrum-scan import icon).
- Select the newly downloaded WSM CSV.
- Verify that imported channels read Unusable band / Blocked and review overlaps with existing usable entries.
- Recalculate Coordination; obtain sound-lead approval before Allocation and sending to G4 transmitters.
Saved example: Ananda Mandir preconverted WSM CSV
This downloads all 17 flagged UHF channels in the saved Ananda Mandir export, including channel 14 outside your three IEM tuning ranges. The current-review converter exports only channels overlapping your IEM bands.
Shure Wireless Workbench β Shure .cxl β WSM
- In Wireless Workbench, verify the exact venue coordinates and research date. Run the TV exclusion search; record the radius and source.
- Export the channel exclusions as .cxl and use βChoose Shure .cxl fileβ above.
- Review flagged/unknown channels with the sound lead. Run a fresh transmitter-off RF scan and coordinate the complete system.
- Export the current reviewed WSM CSV. Import into a backup WSM project and inspect every blocked band. A candidate is not legal clearance.
No verified live lookup provider is connected.
Local channel-override audit
Shure-excluded channels are proposed blocked. Unflagged channels stay UNKNOWN until independently reviewed; none is automatically cleared.
Enter the named reviewer in Required Approvals before recording this TV review.
WSM import: Frequencies/Bands β Import list, using a COPY of the WSM project. This exports blocked entries only; it does not automatically modify WSM or certify frequencies as legal. Avoid overwriting verified restrictions.
RF approvals and audit are stored only on this browser/device. Names are manual attestations, not authenticated identities or independent authorization.
