APPENDIX 2: GLOSSARY
AFL (After-Fader-Listening)
Acronym for after fader listen, also known as post-
fader solo function.
AUX (Auxiliary send)
A console output comprising of mixed signals from
channels and groups derived independently of the
main stereo/group mixes. The feeds to the mix are
typically implemented on rotary level controls.
Balanced
An audio connection method, which balances the
signal between 2 wires and a screen which carries
no signal. Interference is picked up equally by the 2
wires, but out of phase; resulting in cancellation of
the interference signal.
Clipping
Severe distortion onset in the signal path, usually
happens when the peak signal voltage is being lim-
ited by the circuit’s power supply voltage.
dB (decibel)
A ratio of quantities measured in similar terms using
a logarithmic scale.
Equalizer (EQ)
A devise that allows the cutting or boosting of fre-
quencies of selected bands in the signal path.
Fader
Audio level control. The term also refers to a straight-
line slide control rather than a rotary control.
