Double Keys (Keyboard) Stage Plot Icon

Drop the Double Keys (Keyboard) icon onto the canvas and the plot immediately marks a keyboard position and the stereo pair it sends to the console. That is the difference between a drawing a crew can build from and a sketch they have to interpret.

Add it, label it, and save the plot. The next time this band books, the layout is already done.

Using the Double Keys Keyboard icon on a stage plot

Where it goes on stage

Put it where it will really stand, not where it is convenient to draw. Keyboard rigs sit stage left or stage right with the player facing across the stage, so they can see both the drummer and front of house without turning their back on the room. Stageplot Pro keeps every icon to scale, so the spacing you draw is the spacing the crew builds.

What the crew needs to know

The detail that saves a phone call. Confirm stand type and whether the rig is single or double tier. Height changes the sightline for everyone behind it.

On the input list

Double Keys (Keyboard) expands into 4 channels on the input list: Upper L, Upper R, Lower L and Lower R. That expansion is why the channel count on an exported plot matches what the engineer actually patches. It sorts at position 5 in the drums first, vocals last channel order that front of house engineers expect.

Console exports

Channel names travel with the plot. Export a scene file for an X32, M32, or Wing, or a channel name CSV for dLive, Avantis, SQ, DiGiCo, and Yamaha CL and QL. See the console guides.
