The Podium Lectern icon puts a person on the plot. It documents a platform position that a volunteer team can rebuild the same way each week, and a crew scanning the page reads the human shapes before anything else on it.
Place it, rotate it, and give it a label that matches the language your crew already uses. The export keeps all of it.
Stage position is the thing that gets argued about at load in, so it is worth drawing accurately. Worship team positions spread across the front of the platform, with the kit and any shield upstage centre or upstage right where the room can absorb it. If the room forces a compromise, move the icon and export again. A fresh PDF is cheap; an argument at load in is not.
One thing worth writing down. Save one plot per configuration. Volunteer teams work far faster from a printed drawing than from anyone's memory.
Podium Lectern is not an audio source, so it adds no rows to the input list. It is there to make the drawing accurate: it documents a platform position that a volunteer team can rebuild the same way each week, and the channel count stays clean because nothing silent is padding it out.
The input list behind the plot exports as a Behringer X32 or Midas M32 scene file, a Behringer Wing scene, or CSV channel names for Allen and Heath dLive, Avantis, and SQ, DiGiCo, and Yamaha CL and QL desks. See the console guides.
