2
A typical home stereo speaker is ...
2-way
A typical house PA system is..
3 way or 4 way
A typical live sound monitor wedge is...
2 way
A passive crossover is positioned before or after amplification?
After
An active crossover is positioned before or after amplification?
Before
A bi-amped speaker or system means that it is a:
2-way active system
A bi amped or tri amped speaker or system employs...
multiple amplifiers or channels
A tri amped speaker or system means it is a....q
A three way active system
A bi amped three way system indicates that..
One amp channel powers one component and the other channel powers two.
In a filter, the section that is unaffected is called the...
Pass band
In a filter, the section that is fully attenuated is called the...
Stop band
In a filter set, the place where the 2 opposing filters meet is called the...
Crossover point
The section in a filter where the attenuation begins is called..
Transfer area
True or False: In a filter, the reference frequency measurement is called the knee frequency
True
If one is to set a console's high pass filter at 100 Hz, that 100 Hz is measured at the....
Knee frequency
True or False: the filter slope is measured in dB per octave.
True
Each order of slope is equivalent to:
6 decibels per octave
A third order of slope is said to have a rolloff rate of...
18 dB/oct
What is the roll off rate of a fourth order filter?
24 dB/oct
The shape of a filter is significant to that particular section?
the transfer area
Shapes also have names: Bessel, Butterwirth, Linkwitz/Riley, and NTM. Which filter has a very long transfer area and a variable knee-frequency reference level?
Bessel
Which filter has an extremely short transfer area and a consistent knee frequency of -3 dB?
Butterwirth
Which 2 filters have a knee frequency referenced at -6 dB?
NTM and Linkwitz/Riley
The electronic alignment of 2 or more loudspeaker components is known as:
Time alignment, time correction, or phase coherency
True or False: Misaligned speaker components will cause part of the sound from a loudspeaker to beam or tilt up or down.
True
A 2 way stereo analog crossover will have a total of how many output levels?
4
True or False: An analog crossover's controls adjust each high and low-pass filter individually.
False
A 3-way mono crossover will have how many frequency selector controls?
2
A typical 2-way stereo crossover can be configured to operate as:
3-way mono
True or False: Digital crossovers cannot store and recall settings
False
True or false: Digital crossovers can be managed via PC's
True
In a digital crossover's crossover menu, the user can adjust:
Each filter, slope, and shape
Band limiting can be defined as:
Frequency dependent limiting
All digital crossovers always contain..
time correction and parametric band eqs
the best way to protect a digital crossover from unwanted tampering is:
employing the lockout functions
A digital crossover's configuration limitations depend on:
the number of input/output connections
How many outputs does a stereo 3-way system require?
six
If a digital crossover has 4 inputs and 8 outputs, which of the following configurations can it not achieve...a) a stereo 4 way system. b) a stereo 3-way system and a mono 3-way system. c) four 2-way systems. d) a stereo 3-way system and a mono 2-way system
b)a stereo 3-way system and a mono 3-way system
True or false: A system limiter could be used as a system compressor in some applications
True
A ratio of _ or higher would be considered limiting
8:1
True or False: Even with the most advanced system management units, a system EQ is not necessary.
False

Adapta-Q
What type of filter will have its bandwidth remain the same when the amplitude changes?
Constant-Q
What does RTA stand for?
Real Time Analyzer
What 2 things does a RTA measure?
Frequency and Amplitude
