Use the Grand Piano icon when the keyboard rig has to be unambiguous on the page. It marks a keyboard position and the stereo pair it sends to the console, and nobody reading the plot has to guess what the shape is meant to be.
Drag it onto the canvas, resize it, rename the label, and it lands in the exported PDF exactly where you left it.
Where it sits on the deck changes how the rest of the plot reads. 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. Snap the icon to the grid and the distances stay believable on a printed page.
Say this part explicitly. Confirm stand type and whether the rig is single or double tier. Height changes the sightline for everyone behind it.
Grand Piano is a stereo source, so it produces 2 channels on the input list, L and R. Both default to a DI input, no stand and phantom power off. It sorts at position 5 in the drums first, vocals last channel order that front of house engineers expect.
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.
