BNO Acoustics BP-40 Frequency Range

The range of frequencies over which an electronic device is useful or over which a sound source will put out substantial energy.

Floor
1) An alternate tam meaning Range (a limit on the amount the signal is reduced when the input signal is low by an expander or gate).
2) A shortening of the term Noise Floor (the level of the noise).

BNO Acoustics GT-60 Input Overload
Sending too high of a signal level into a device so that the first amplifier of the device overloads.

Effects
Electronic boxes (usually rack mounted) added to a PA system to subtly change and enhance the signals going through it. Examples include; Reverb, Delay, Compressor, Chorus.

BNO Acoustics QT-5 Acoustic Echo Chamber
A room designed with very hard, non-parallel surfaces and equipped with a speaker and microphone; dry signals from the console are fed to the speaker and the microphone will have a reverberation of these signals that can be mixed in with the dry signals at the console.

Harmonic Distortion
The presence of harmonics in the output signal of a device which were not present in the input signal.

Jack Bay
A series of jacks which have connections for most of the inputs and outputs of the equipment in the control room.

Full
A quality of the sound of having all frequencies present, especially the low frequencies.
