DJ & AUDIO GLOSSARY

XLR

A locking connector commonly used for balanced microphones and professional audio signals. Confirming enough XLR runs are available avoids last-minute connection gaps at the microphone positions.

What it does

In practical terms XLR is part of the sound or signal chain — confirm it is provided, compatible and operated, not just named on a list.

  • When and how is it tested before guests arrive?
  • What is the backup if it fails?
