Question 1

What is load·in?

Accepted Answer

load·in carries the verified identity layer of supported live-sound files: channel names, mix names, colors/icons where exposed, stereo links, and preserved unedited show data on supported round-trips. It can also generate supported console files from scratch.

Question 2

Which consoles are supported today?

Accepted Answer

load·in supports Behringer X32, Midas M32, X-Air, WING, Yamaha CL/QL and DM3, DiGiCo SD-series, Allen & Heath SQ and dLive, and Avid VENUE S6L, plus scoped names-only generation for Yamaha RIVAGE PM. It focuses public claims on verified channel identity, selected standard-strip fields where supported, stereo relationships, mix/bus labels where supported, and preserved unedited show data.

Question 3

What does load·in cost?

Accepted Answer

load·in is free to use with watermarked PDF/PNG exports, free native X32/M32 scene export, and up to 3 saved plots. Pro is a $99 one-time purchase with no subscription or recurring charge. It unlocks additional supported console workflows, DAW templates, clean exports, unlimited plots, and Pro export tools.

Question 4

Can I import an X32 scene file into load·in?

Accepted Answer

Yes. load·in imports .scn files from Behringer X32 and Midas M32 consoles. It reads channel identity, stereo relationships, and supported Strip values from the scene, then keeps verified edits tied to the imported file while preserving untouched scene data.

Question 5

Can load·in read a tech rider PDF?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Drop in a tech-rider PDF and load·in reads the input list out of it and plots the stage, so the advance starts from the rider instead of a retype. It reads PDFs that carry a text layer; a scanned or photographed rider has no text to read, and load·in tells you that rather than guessing at the channel list.

Question 6

Does load·in work offline?

Accepted Answer

After the web app is cached, you can build and edit a plot and open saved .show projects without a connection. Purchases, account features, integrations, and console-file workflows require internet access; X32/M32 .scn import and export also work offline in the iPhone and iPad app.

Question 7

What console file formats does load·in support?

Accepted Answer

Current workflows include X32/M32/X-Air (.scn), WING (.snap), Yamaha CL/QL (.CLF) and DM3 (.dm3f), scoped RIVAGE PM (.RIVAGEPM), DiGiCo SD (.ses), Allen & Heath SQ (folder/.zip), Allen & Heath dLive (native archive), and Avid VENUE S6L (.dsh). Coverage differs by desk: the in-app preview states what is written, preserved, or omitted, and every console file should be checked in the official editor or target desk before show use.
