The SM58 Coiled icon documents signal flow, not just scenery. It marks an open channel and the stand that has to be under it, which is the part of a plot the audio department reads first.
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. Vocal mics sit downstage on the performer line. Choir and overhead mics fly above and behind the group they cover, angled down and away from the nearest wedge. 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. Mark wireless separately from wired. Frequency coordination starts from that count, and so does the battery order.
SM58 Coiled produces one channel on the input list, defaulting to a Dynamic input, a boom stand and phantom power off. It sorts at position 9 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.
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.
