JDI sits in the AC & DI section, 14 icons that describe how sound gets on and off the stage. This one marks a point where the crew has to land power or a direct feed.
Add it, label it, and save the plot. The next time this band books, the layout is already done.
Put it where it will really stand, not where it is convenient to draw. Power drops sit upstage of the performer and out of walking lines. Direct boxes sit at the player's feet so the instrument cable stays short and the noise floor stays low. Stageplot Pro keeps every icon to scale, so the spacing you draw is the spacing the crew builds.
The detail that saves a phone call. Count these before you send the plot. A missing quad box is one of the most common reasons a load in stalls, and it is trivially avoidable on paper.
JDI is not an audio source, so it adds no rows to the input list. It is there to make the drawing accurate: it marks a point where the crew has to land power or a direct feed, and the channel count stays clean because nothing silent is padding it out.
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.
