Reading a Signal Chain
Source
Where the signal originates. Microphones capture sound, cameras capture images, lighting consoles generate DMX data.
Microphone, Camera, Lighting Console
Transport
Moves the signal from point A to point B. Converts formats (analog to digital) and carries signals over distance.
Stage Box, Digital Snake, SDI Router, DMX Node
Processing
Modifies, routes, or controls the signal. Mixing, switching, scaling — where decisions are made.
Console, Video Switcher, DSP, Amplifier
Output
The final destination. Converts electrical signal into something the audience experiences — sound, images, light.
Speaker, LED Wall, Projector, Moving Light
