Equalizer
Adjusts the balance of frequency components in an audio signal. It's used to shape the sound tonality and to minimize feedback in a live setting.
Wireless Receiver
Picks up audio signals from wireless microphones or instruments. It's essential for performers who need mobility without cable restrictions.
Microphone
Captures audio by converting sound waves into an electrical signal. It's used by actors to amplify their voices or pick up ambient sounds on stage.
Amplifier
Boosts the power of audio signals, enabling them to drive loudspeakers. It's used to increase the volume of sound without distortion.
Feedback Destroyer
Automatically detects and reduces feedback by cutting frequencies that cause it. It's essential for preventing audio feedback during live events.
Loudspeaker
Converts electrical audio signals into sound waves, projecting them into the performance space. They deliver sound to the audience.
Audio Interface
Converts analog signals to digital and vice versa, enabling recording and playback integration with computers. It's used in sound design and recording.
Reverb Processor
Simulates the effect of reverberation in various environments. It's used to add depth and space to the sound, making it more lifelike or surreal.
Mixer
Combines multiple audio signals into one or more output channels. It allows for volume levels, tone, and dynamics to be balanced during a live performance.
Digital Audio Workstation (DAW)
Software platform for recording, editing, and producing audio files. It's used to compose, record, and mix soundtracks for theatrical productions.
Effects Processor
Alters audio signals to produce various sound effects. It's used to create special sound effects or to enhance the aural elements of a performance.

PA System
Public Address System used for amplifying announcements or music. It's used in theatres to ensure announcements are heard by the entire audience.
Headphones
Allow for monitored listening of audio signals. They are used by sound engineers to mix audio and by performers for cueing.
Sound Booth
Isolated area for sound control equipment and operations. It allows sound engineers to mix and control audio without disrupting the audience.
Compressor
Reduces the dynamic range of an audio signal by attenuating the louder parts. It's used to maintain consistent volume levels and prevent distortion.
Direct Input Box
Connects instruments directly to the audio mixer. It's used to reduce noise and match the electronic levels for a cleaner sound.
Stage Monitor
Speakers on stage facing performers. They allow musicians and actors to hear the performance as it happens, helping them to stay in time and pitch.
