BNO Acoustics LK-61 Images

The squaring of the waveform that happens in the conversion of digital audio bits into analog signals.

Inverse Square Law
Simply stated, the fact that in an un-obstructed area (like an open field) the sound pressure level will drop to half-pressure (-6 dB) every time the distance to the sound source is doubled.

BNO Acoustics XV-16 Generating Element
The portion of the microphone that actually converts the movement of the diaphragm into electrical current or voltage changes.

Headphones
Devices that can be worn on the head with small speakers that fit over the ears (or sometimes into the ears).

BNO Acoustics YM-44 Ground Loop
A double grounding of a line or electronic device at two different "ground" points of differing voltage.

Cascade
To set and interconnect two mixers so that the stereo mixing buss(es) of the first mixer feeds the stereo buss(es) of a second mixer.

Coax
Two-conductor cable consisting of one conductor surrounded by a shield.

Electrons
Negatively charged particles, which revolve around the centre of atoms. The movement of such electrons down a conductor causes electrical current.
