S-Type Revision S2005-6
matrix group Module where signals are mixed together from
appropriately assigned matrix sends.
matrix output Level controlled output of the resulting mixed
signals of the matrix.
matrix send A potentiometer for sending signal from a group
module to a matrix bus.
MG Abbreviation of Mute Group
MG assignment The process of assigning an input channel to a
Mute Group.
microphone level The signal strength of the microphone output.
mixing bus An electrical conductor or pair of conductors for
adding electrical signals together.
Mnemonic Defined as something that supports memory.
module A structure for housing electronic circuits and
components. A mixing console is built up from a
number of different modules, each having a cer-
tain function such as an input module, output
module, stereo module or it may involve other
functions.
monitor amplifier Amplifier connected between a console output
(usually the LISTEN module) and the monitor
speakers.
monitored output Console output that is being monitored (listened
to), either via headphones or an external ampli-
fier and speakers.
MSTR Abbreviation of Master.
MTX PRE Feature of the Output & Matrix module allowing
the OUTPUT to be routed directly from the
group to the MATRIX pre-fader.
MUTE group Group of channels that have been assigned to
one Mute Group and can be muted by pressing
one button.
Mute group assignments The process of assigning channels to one mute
group i.e. all channels in that group may then be
muted by pressing only one button.
O/P Abbreviation of OutPut.
on-board jumpers Inter-connects that may be configured by the
user to suit a certain application.
OPEN LED Located on a fader panel, this LED illuminates
when the channel VCA is open and not muted
locally or by assignment to a Mute Group.
Osc frequency Feature of the Oscillator & Communications
module allowing the integral module oscillator to
be set to generate a certain frequency within the
range of 31Hz to 16kHz, as indicated by the
switch.
oscillator An electronic circuit used to generate a single
frequency or noise spectrum.
Oscillator/Comms module Module that features an oscillator, remote calling
and communication functions.
