siirtorboards
Siirtorboards are a type of specialized equipment used primarily in the professional audio and live sound industry. They function as a central hub for managing and routing audio signals between various components of a sound system. These boards allow for flexible connections and signal distribution, making them indispensable for complex setups such as live concerts, theatrical productions, and broadcast studios. Siirtorboards typically feature a dense array of input and output connectors, often using standardized formats like XLR or D-sub. Their primary purpose is to simplify the intricate cabling required for a professional audio environment, reducing clutter and the potential for signal degradation. By consolidating connections, siirtorboards facilitate efficient setup and teardown of audio systems, contributing to smoother operations for sound engineers. They are not to be confused with mixing consoles, as their role is primarily in signal routing and distribution rather than audio signal processing or level adjustment.
