This week pays that off. This is the most practical episode we've ever done.\n\nTwo listeners asked the same question from opposite ends of it. Jonny said the idea left him feeling \"sort of doomed, stuck with my setup.\" Logan's maxed-out MacBook Pro currently runs the entire show — tracks, vocal tuning, keys, guitar patch changes — and he wants to know whether a powerful computer makes division of labor unnecessary. It doesn't, because the question was never if that computer crashes.\n\nSo we walk the diagrams: what actually stops working when one machine does everything and goes down, where to start when the budget is real, which splits cost nothing, and the one question that decides what deserves a backup at all.\n\nLast week's episode: The in-ears video I got wrong — and the one I should have made\n\nListener-exclusive: a 14-day free trial of a full paid Pliris account — fromstudiotostage.com/pliris/friend. It isn't linked or advertised anywhere on the site; it's for people who listen.\n\nChapters\n\n0:00 Where we left off last week\n1:34 \"I run everything on one computer\"\n2:44 So what happens when it goes down?\n3:17 Division of labor, in one diagram\n4:10 Redundancy — and what it buys you\n5:17 \"I feel sort of doomed and stuck\"\n5:52 Logan's email\n7:03 How do you apply this without endless budget?\n11:39 \"Just play your damn instruments, kids\"\n12:35 What if you lose autotune?\n14:22 Be honest about what your show needs\n16:35 What you can split for free\n17:26 Split as far as budget allows\n18:37 Step one — division of labor\n20:46 Step two — redundancy for playback\n21:49 It used to be expensive.
