Connecting Gear: Difference between revisions

Line 4:

This article will discuss signal flow, cables and device names in this order:

;Source to Destination  ~~examples~~: 

; Integrated systems

All the current Bose Portable PA systems are integrated systems with built-in mixers, digital signal processors, power amplifiers, low-frequency and mid-high frequency drivers. Provide a sound source (microphone, instrument), and you have a complete sound system. However, since all of these systems have inputs and outputs, they can be part of a larger signal flow with components in front of and following them. Connecting Gear is about making the connections to and from the Bose systems.

;Source to Destination

:Throughout this site, we talk about connections by following the signal flow from the source to the destination. examples: 

* Microphone to Mixer to Loudspeaker  

* Guitar to Guitar Modeler to Mixer to Loudspeaker  

~~TODO A short explanation of what “connecting gear” means and why it matters.~~

[[The Simplest Thing That Could Possibly Work]]

Throughout this site, we talk about the simplest thing that could possibly work.

'''Short version:'''

Choosing the simplest, fastest solution that still has a realistic chance of achieving the desired outcome—without over‑engineering or adding unnecessary steps.
