Solo Safe

Large format consoles ofgten have a 'Solo Safe' function to prevent certain channels from being muted when others are solo'd. This would typically be used to maintain the signals from effects returns, for example, so that a solo'd channel can be auditioned with its related effects. (See Solo)

Solo

A system used within mixing consoles to allow specific channel signals to be monitored in isolation. Solo differs from PFL and AFL in that it doesn't route signals to the monitoring system via a dedicated bus. Instead, it uses the console's main stereo output bus and works by muting all other channels, leaving only the channel currently being solo'd to feed the stereo mix bus. For this reason, it is often called a 'destructive solo' and the function is normally locked-out in broadcast desks when the 'red light' is turned on! As the Solo'd signal includes the effects of both the fader and the pan-pot, it is sometimes known as 'solo-in-place, or SIP. (See AFL and PFL).

Polyphonic Aftertouch

A means of generating multiple control signals in a synthesizer based on how much pressure is applied to individual keys of a MIDI keyboard. Only a few instruments curently generate polyphonic aftertouch, although more can respond to it. Aftertouch is typically used to control such functions as vibrato depth, filter brightness, loudness etc. See Aftertouch

TS Plug

TS refers to the 2-terminal 'Tip and Sleeve' format of various types of jack plug, typically used unbalanced mono audio connections or for CV and gate patching on monular synthesizers. A 3-terminal alternative is also available, referred to as the TRS (Tip, Ring, Sleeve) version. The term is applicable to A-type, and mini-jack connectors.

Mini-Jack

A miniaturised version of the A-type jack plug, with a 3.5mm diameter. Available in both 2-terminal (TS) and 3-terminal (TRS) formats. Widely used for both stereo headphone output and unbalanced mic and line input connections on consumer equipment, as well as for CV and gate patching on modular synthesizers.
