Bass Kick Drum Stage Plot Icon

Bass Kick Drum is one of 19 Drum Kits icons in the Stageplot Pro library. It anchors the plot and drives the largest single block of channels on the input list, and it carries its own input list behaviour, so the channel count stays honest as the drawing changes.

Position it, scale it, duplicate it for a second player, and the input list follows along without a rebuild.

Using the Bass Kick Drum icon on a stage plot

Where it goes on stage

A plot earns its keep by settling positions before anyone opens a case. Kits sit upstage centre on a riser wherever possible, so the drummer plays behind the vocal line and sits above the sightline of the front row. Anything unusual about the position belongs in the plot notes, so the drawing carries its own explanation.

What the crew needs to know

Worth confirming in the advance. Say whether the kit is supplied and give the kick size. Mic choice, riser depth, and shield height all follow from that one answer.

On the input list

Bass Kick Drum produces one channel on the input list, defaulting to a Dynamic input, a short boom stand and phantom power off. It sorts at position 1 in the drums first, vocals last channel order that front of house engineers expect. Change any of it per plot; the default just means you rarely have to.

Console exports

Because the input list is generated rather than typed, it exports straight to console: X32 and M32 scene files, Wing scenes, and CSV channel names for the Allen and Heath, DiGiCo, and Yamaha families. See the console guides.

Gear that usually shares the plot

Anchors the plot and drives the largest single block of channels on the input list is only part of the picture. These icons come from Percussion, Drum Shields and Mics, the sections that most often appear on the same drawing.
