Brooks SS 81 Headstock
The area of the guitar at the end of the neck where the strings are tuned.
Active/Inactive Microphones
Scientific definitions aside, active microphones generally sound better than inactive ones, but they generally cost more. They also require the use of either a battery or phantom power while inactive mics need only be plugged into the mic cord in order to work. In most playing situations, the subtle improvement in sound quality from an active mic isn't worth the extra cost and hassle. One possible exception it the headset mic. Put simply, inactive headset mics just plain suck. Active headset mics put out a much stronger signal and feed back much less.
Brooks GT 44 Atom
The smallest particle which makes up a specific substance. It's composed of a center around which electrons revolve.
Arc
The visible sparks generated by an electrical discharge.
Brooks RM 80 ID
An index signal (digital data that gives the machine information of where selections start, their selection number, etc.) on a DAT or CD.
Level
Sets output volume of individual PA input channels. Usually positioned as sliders at the bottom of the soundboard.
Equalization
1) The process of adjusting the tonal quality of a sound. A graphic equalizer provides adjustment for a wide range of frequency bands, and is normally inserted in the signal path after the mixing desk, before the amplifier. See Feedback.
2) Any time the amplitude of audio signals at specific set of frequencies are increased or decreased more than the signals at other audio frequencies.
Cable, 1/4 inch
An unbalanced cable most often used for instruments and patch cords. Commonly referred to as "guitar cords".
