(sub) group | an output into which a group of signals can be mixed. |
headroom | the available signal range above the nominal level before |
| clipping occurs. |
highpass filter | a filter that rejects low frequencies. |
line level signals | at a nominal level of |
| impedance source. |
peaking | an equaliser response curve affecting only a band of frequencies |
| i.e. based on a bandpass response. |
PFL (pre-fade listen)
a function that allows the operator to monitor the
rolloff | a fall in gain at the extremes of the frequency response. |
shelving | an equaliser response affecting all frequencies above or |
| below the break frequency i.e. a highpass or lowpass derived |
| response. |
spill | acoustic interference from other sources. |
talkback | the operator speaking to the artistes or to tape via the |
| auxiliary or group outputs. |
transient | a momentary rise in the signal level. |
