Teacher, BGM Rhythms
This conversation is closed.
What is Rhythm?
What is rhythm?
I feel that rhythm is a descriptive force. As a drummer I give it a home through the playing of the drums and by developing technically. I develop my language skills in translating emotive thought into music. Here rhythm is the vestal carrying my ideas. Perhaps there are other ways to translate creative or emotive thought by using rhythm as a medium which haven't been developed yet.
As far as I know there have not been a great deal of modern conversations developing the idea of rhythm to a satisfactory level of understanding.
Philosophical Quotes – Source – A Philosophy of Rhythm, Lucille D. Lamkin. 1934
Aristoxenus, Disciple of Aristotle.
"Rhythm is an ordering (or a defined ordering) of times"
"Rhythm is the property of a sequence of events in time which produces on the mind of the observer the impression of proportion between the duration of several events or groups of events of which the sequence is composed"
According to William Thomson: "The most fundamental error made about rhythm is that it is 'an ordering of times'. The most fundamental truth about rhythm is that it is an ordering of blows." (here blows means accents or stresses)
I would be interested to hear what your concept of rhythm is in your life, work, and creative thought and how it affects your perception of time (or not).
Ben Martin - BGM Rhythms
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Nov 26 2011: Rhythm may be the very definition of time. Without it, time is not perceptible. Animals experience events - humans experience/perceive time. It may also be that improvement in rhythm perception and performance corrects/modifies many anomalies such as ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, autism, etc. Significant research points in that direction, and functional magnetic resonance imaging confirms that rhythm activity actually modifies the brain.
Nov 27 2011: Rhythm certainly is a definition of time but perhaps not the only. In a human context our perception of time definitely ebbs and flows depending on the activities we are taking part in. These activities seem to change our perception depending on how much of our concentration they take up. This makes time perception subjective as all our minds work in different ways. As soon as humans become objective time becomes measured in a different way. For example the measuring of light and the decay of atoms. Perhaps there is a different sort of rhythm present in this sort of observation?
Do we not all experience events in the same way as animals but with the added illusion of the human condition? I know that animals experience and take enjoyment from hearing music and perhaps even benefit from music more as there power of analysis is less evolved. It is interesting to note the trend in some forms of music to overwhelm the senses in order to retrieve for the listener and musicians alike, a more animal state of arousal.
As someone who is dyslexic and has been placed on the autistic spectrum I knew from day one on some level that the process of learning to drum (still ongoing) was helping me in many ways. I'm not certain exactly how though. Perhaps as a fluid form of expression without the type of logic required for spoken conversation in the case of aspergers and more certainly as a way of ordering my thoughts and honing coordination skills in the case of dyslexia.
Thanks, look forward to your reply
Alfred GreenNov 27 2011: Thanks for the reply to my reply. This is an interesting conversation.
Here is one possibility for the way that rhythm experiences affect the symptoms of dyslexia, etc.:
We enter the world with no more understanding of time than animals have. We move through time marked only by experiences which require our reaction. But we have no perception or objective awareness of the time passing between those experiences. As we mature, most of us learn to mark/recognize time as a factor in what we experience and perceive. But some of us do not pick that up so naturally and automatically. Those of us who somehow miss that learning continue to move from one instantaneous experience to another without realizing the importance of time. Many continue that perception (or lack of perception) into adulthood.
Rhythm experiences assist by forcing us to recognize the passing of time. Such experiences allow us to connect instantaneous experiences (each beat) to a larger bit of time (the time required for the entire piece of music). The relentless nature of the rhythm captures us because the instantaneous experiences come at us so frequently that we don't have time to take the mental side trips that often distract from a task that requires concentration.
As a result, the brain is forced to recognize the relationship of small bits of time to longer periods of time. Repeating such experiences reinforces and encourages that perception, allowing the individual to finally recognize time as a quantifiable constant whether or not the instantaneous experiences are present.
What do you think?
Nov 27 2011: Its an intriguing thought that conditions such as dyslexia come from an in-ability to mark the passing of time through a subconscious recognition of rhythmic patterns in our environment.
_is that what you are saying?
Dose this come from research or is it speculative?
I have always thought of these conditions as a gift of an altered or even enhanced perception, rather than as a lack of perception. The drawbacks being few compared to the creative and imaginative advantages (that is if you are lucky enough to be put in a position where you can take advantage of your condition).
I can see your point about the perception of the passing of time being marked by our experiences. This fits in with the idea that perception is different for someone with the aforementioned conditions.
I would however say perception is altered from the offset genetically and grows into a recognisable condition as the mind develops.
Would be interesting to know about any tests on rhythm perception in the development of children with dyslexia ADHD etc. I wonder if this has been looked into?
My hypothesis would be that a person with dyslexia or another inherited condition while still recognising rhythmic patterns in there environment. i.e. spoken word, written word and writing, mathematics, logical thought etc sees them from an altered view point. Perhaps a different part of the brain controls the retrieval of pattern recognition than that of a normal mind and therefore processes the information in what is perceived as a unique and creative way. This theory may be tested through trying to discover ways in which musical rhythms are interpreted and learned by people with these conditions.

UNDATED (WSAU-Wheeler News) Unemployment went down slightly in half of Wisconsin's 12 metro areas last month. State officials said yesterday that the actual, un-adjusted jobless figures ranged from 7.6-percent in Racine to 4-percent in Madison. Both those cities had a one-tenth-of-one-percent decline in unemployment from November.
Decreases were also reported in Milwaukee, Wausau, Oshkosh-Neenah, and Sheboygan.
Unemployment rose slightly in the La Crosse, Fond du Lac, and Eau Claire areas.
Rates stayed the same in Appleton, Green Bay, and Janesville.
Metro Milwaukee's new jobless rate is 6.2-percent, down three-tenths from the month before. Preliminary figures showed that the Milwaukee area added 3,000 jobs in December -- almost half the state's total of 6,200 new jobs.
Fifty of Wisconsin's 72 counties had increases in their unadjusted jobless rates in December. Iron County had the highest figure of 13.3-percent.

jaggiesStairlike lines that appear where there should be smooth straight lines or curves. Jaggies can occur for a variety of reasons, the most common being that the output device (display monitor or printer) does not have enough resolution to portray a smooth line. In addition, jaggies often occur when a bit-mapped image is converted to a different resolution. This is one of the advantages vector graphics has over bit-mapped graphics -- the output looks the same regardless of the resolution of the output device.
The effect of jaggies can be reduced somewhat by a graphics technique known as antialiasing. Antialiasing smoothes out jagged lines by surrounding the jaggies with shaded pixels. In addition, some printers can reduce jaggies with a technique known as smoothing.

Pet Stories: In Your Own Words
Hello, and here is my story of my little Ranger. You see Ranger is my little Miniature Pinscher. My husband got him for me as a Christmas present 9 years ago. I knew from the story that my husband told me of how Ranger ran over to my husband and sat between his legs and looked up at him as if to say OK I'm yours take me home to be with my family , that he would be the most devoted and special pet, that my husband and I have had.
The special story I would like to share with you is this one. It has been 8 year ago now that this has happened. But if it weren't for having Ranger, I don't think that I would be writing this story to you today. You see, I had a blood clot that was missed by the Doctors in my left leg. It had moved from my ankle to my thigh. Well the 1st day of deer hunting season my husband was camping and going to go hunting that day. I was up at 5:30AM and doing my regular routine in getting ready for my work day. I took Ranger for his walk, but during the walk I felt a little light headed and couldn't catch my breath. I though that I was hyperventilating. But what was happening to me was this, the blood clot broke lose from my thigh and went into my right lung. So, when I felt light headed, I laid down in the middle of walking my little Ranger. The next thing I knew, Ranger was kissing my face as if to say "Please, please wake up! I need to get you home so you can call for help." With it being that early in the morning no one else was up and moving around outside, so no one would have found me until it was to late. So you see by my special little Ranger kissing me back to this world, I might not be writing this story to you today. Because of Ranger, I was able to make it back home, and I called 911.
I know just how lucky I am to have Ranger in my and my husband's life. He is a wonderful welcome to our family. I must also share this little fact. I used to have a dog named Deacon Blue. Deacon was my Doberman Pincher that I had for 10 year back when I was in high school. My husband got to know my Doberman, Deacon and loved him very much. Both my husband and I fell that Ranger in some way is Deacon reincarnated. And just the thought of that makes both my husband and I smile and have a warm feeling in our hearts.
Thank you for letting me share just a little bit of my Ranger with each and everyone of you who has read this story. And know that I feel very lucky to have such a special and wonderful pet in my and my husband's life!

Piratey Soundtrack - inspired by Ultima & Vangelis?
I now am the happy owner of the soundtrack to Pirates of the Carribbean, 1492: Conquest of Paradise, and Ultima V: Lazarus (the third being a computer game).
And I noticed something odd about three of the tracks - parts of the opening of the PotC soundtrack sounded similar to a passage each in the other two soundtracks. So, for comparison, I cut together 2 mp3s that compare 30 second samples of each. I didn't want to upload the tracks themselves because on the whole I'd prefer to keep the RIAA off my back.

Treasury Hunt®
Did you know?
- Each year, 25,000 payments are returned to the Department of the Treasury as undeliverable. Treasury Hunt can search for undeliverable Series HH/H savings bond interest and undeliverable marketable security interest.
- Billions of dollars in savings bonds have stopped earning interest, but haven't been cashed.
- Treasury Hunt tells you about savings bonds no longer earning interest. If you still have these savings bonds, cash them or move them to a TreasuryDirect account through Smart Exchange where the proceeds will be deposited into your Certificate of Indebtedness (C of I). You can then use your C of I to purchase an electronic savings bond or another Treasury security such as a T-bill, so your money can start working for you again.
Do you…
- or a deceased loved one own a savings bond, or registered Treasury note or bond that has matured and is no longer earning interest?
- have HH/H interest that you haven't received?
- have Legacy Treasury Direct payments that you haven't received?
Please Note: The Treasury Hunt database is limited.
- For savings bonds, Treasury Hunt provides information only and doesn't give you status of your bonds. You need to contact the Bureau of the Fiscal Service for status information.
- Treasury Hunt does not contain a record of all savings bonds. This system only provides information on Series E bonds issued in 1974 and after and Series EE Bonds issued in 1980 and after.
- Treasury Hunt may not completely identify any/all savings bonds you may have lost... only those that have reached final maturity and were issued in 1974 and after. Treasury Hunt will not help you identify bonds that were issued without a Social Security Number (SSN) or unmatured savings bonds that you currently have in your possession. You can't search for undeliverable bonds in Treasury Hunt. To file a claim for bonds, you must submit one of the following:
- For lost, stolen or destroyed bonds, submit Form PD F 1048.
- For undeliverable bonds (bonds not received), submit Form PD F 3062-4.
- Most records for registered Treasury notes and bonds can be searched through this system.
- Please keep in mind, under the Privacy Act of 1974, if you are not the bond owner or co-owner, we are limited in the information we can provide.
About Savings Bonds No Longer Earning Interest
You can also figure out whether you have savings bonds that have stopped earning interest without using Treasury Hunt. Just check the issue date on your savings bonds, then visit "Treasury Securities that Have Stopped Earning Interest."

A Twisted Victorian in San Francisco
Originally published on CaliforniaHomeDesign.com
At their first meeting, the owners of this 1,500-square-foot flat in San Francisco made it a point to tell architect Karen Curtiss that what they wanted to do to their home didn't make financial sense. "They knew they could buy a house with the money they planned to spend on the condo," Curtiss says. "However, they didn't want to move. They love their neighbors, the coffee shop on the corner and urban life. They wanted to stay put." Their desire was to recreate the space as a home that was both sophisticated and (sometimes darkly) witty. For the project, Curtiss assembled a team of creative craftspeople and designers and called upon her own inner naturalist. The result is a project she dubbed Victorian Second Nature. It's a home that might not add up in terms of expenditures, but for the irreverent couple who lives here, the pay off is huge.

DEMAREST, N.J. (AP) - Bergen County officials have rejected a plan to have the county handle policing in a northern New Jersey town that voted to dissolve its police department.
The Record newspaper reported that the Bergen County Freeholders board voted 4-3 Friday to reject a contract that would have the Bergen County Police handle law enforcement in Demarest.
Demarest officials voted earlier this month to dissolve the town's 13-member police force, believing it could save $400,000 a year in costs by merging with the Bergen County police.
In addition to the county police, Bergen County has more than 60 police departments and a sheriff's department.
State officials have been urging consolidation as a way to save taxpayer money.
Freeholders who oppose the merger said the proposed savings aren't clear enough.

text: content May 22, 2009 Higher vitamin D levels associated with speedier brain processing In an article published on May 21, 2009 online in the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry, European researchers report that men with higher vitamin D levels performed better on a test of attention and speed of information processing than those with lower levels of the vitamin. Dr David M. Lee of the University of Manchester's School of Translational Medicine and his associates administered 3 tests of cognitive function to 3,369 men aged 40 to 79 from 8 centers participating in the European Male Aging Study (EMAS). Fasting blood samples collected from the subjects were analyzed for serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels. Men whose vitamin D levels were higher were found to perform better on all three tests, although the Digit Symbol Substitution test, which measures psychomotor speed and visual scanning, was the only test whose scores were associated with vitamin D levels after adjustment for several factors. Further analysis revealed that higher test scores were particularly associated with increased vitamin D levels in older participants. Although the authors write that the mechanisms of vitamin D in cerebral functions are unknown, they note that vitamin D has been shown to increase choline acetyltransferase activity in rat brains and that there is also evidence that the vitamin provides a neuroprotective effect. Furthermore, parathyroid hormone and calcium levels, which are affected by vitamin D, could be involved in cognitive function. Additionally, low serum vitamin D levels have been associated with a greater risk of depression, and higher levels of vitamin D were found to be associated with lower depression scores in the current study. "Previous studies exploring the relationship between vitamin D and cognitive performance in adults have produced inconsistent findings but we observed a significant, independent association between slower information processing speed and lower levels of vitamin D," stated Dr Lee. "The main strengths of our study are that it is based on a large population sample and took into account potential interfering factors, such as depression, season and levels of physical activity. "Interestingly, the association between increased vitamin D and faster information processing was more significant in men aged over 60 years, although the biological reasons for this remain unclear," he added. "The positive effects vitamin D appears to have on the brain need to be explored further but certainly raise questions about its potential benefit for minimizing age-related declines in cognitive performance. " "If cognitive function can be improved by a simple intervention such as vitamin D supplementation, this would have potentially important implications for population health," the authors conclude. "In light of our findings, and the fact that vitamin D inadequacy is common among adults, further prospective studies are warranted to determine whether vitamin D supplementation could aid in minimizing aging-related declines in specific cognitive domains." Mild Cognitive Impairment The best strategy for treating mild cognitive impairment is to avoid it in the first place. This means getting plenty of exercise and good sleep, eating a healthy diet, keeping body weight down, avoiding diabetes, and taking the right nutritional supplements before you experience any signs of cognitive decline. In recent years, inflammation has been implicated in the gradual loss of mental function that is known as mild cognitive impairment. Although researchers haven't yet examined anti-inflammatories such as ginger and rosemary in the context of mild cognitive impairment, we believe natural nutrients may play a role in cognitive health. The following supplements have also been shown to boost brain function directly: Cognitex—This special formulation was created by the Life Extension Foundation to supply a mix of nutrients that support healthy brain function. The recommended amount is three capsules. Ginkgo biloba—120 mg/day (200 mg/day of Panax ginseng may amplify ginkgo's effect) Acetyl-L-carnitine and acetyl-L-carnitine arginate—1500 to 3000 mg early in the day Huperzine A—50 to 100 mcg daily Vitamin B6—100 to 750 mg daily (Be sure to take a complete B complex each day when taking daily doses of vitamin B6 in excess of 200 mg.)

Abdominal weight gain is epidemic in aging men, with low free testosterone being a common culprit. In women, abdominal fat accumulation may be caused by an estrogen imbalance and/or excess free testosterone (the opposite of men). In both sexes, low DHEA hormone can contribute to excess belly fat. By measuring blood levels of hormones involved in fat metabolism, one can restore their hormonal profile to youthful ranges that existed when they were normal body weight.

Spring has sprung, and farmers across the country are preparing for planting season. One of their biggest headaches will be dealing with the millions of acres of cropland that have been infested with superweeds and new generations of superbugs.
These superpests have evolved as the direct — and inevitable — consequence of Monsanto's aggressive promotion of its genetically engineered "RoundUp-Ready" and insecticidal seed packages over the past 15 years.
On March 21, the Chilean Transparency Council stood with its citizenry against Monsanto and other global seed corporations to protect Chileans' right to know about genetically engineered (GE) crops.
The Council's decision ensures that farmers, beekeepers and rural residents can find out exactly where GE crops are planted — basic information that is critically important as they seek to protect their farms, apiaries and families from toxic pesticide drift and contamination by pollen from GE plants.
As if the disaster of RoundUp resistant superweeds sweeping our farmland weren't enough, Monsanto is now preparing to launch an even greater disaster: a new soybean engineered to be resistant to the older, more toxic weedkiller, dicamba. The seed — which Monsanto plans to market in 2014 if approved — will also come stacked with the company's RoundUp Ready gene, and is designed to be used with Monsanto's proprietary herbicide "premix" of dicamba and glyphosate.
More dicamba-tolerant crops (corn, cotton, canola) are all waiting in the wings. If this new generation of GE crops is approved, then dicamba use will surge, just as it did with RoundUp. And we all know how well that didn't work out.
On Monday, a French court ruled in favor of farmer Paul François, who suffered neurological symptoms including headaches, memory loss and stammering after inhaling Monsanto's herbicide, Lasso.
The decision marks the first time the pesticide and biotech giant — the largest of the Big 6 — has been held liable for poisoning caused by its products. Monsanto is appealing the verdict.
The Iowa Senate is considering a state law that would criminalize the reporting of abusive conditions at animal or crop operations.
Several citizen and food transparency groups in Iowa have opposed the law, which they have dubbed the "Whistle Blower Suppression Bill" and the "Ag Gag Bill." Strong support for the measure is coming from multinational corporations like Monsanto and Dupont, as well as statewide organizations like the Iowa Poultry Association.

Busy small business owners are always looking for quick, impactful ways to reach their customers. You've no doubt heard about Facebook, YouTube and other sites that provide easy platforms to engage customers online. But have you heard of Vine? It's a new social media app owned by Twitter, the popular microblogging site where you've got 140 characters to get your message to the masses. With Vine, dubbed the Instagram of video by its 13 million users, you can upload and share six-second video clips.
You might be wondering what you can convey to your customers in just six seconds. If you take a cue from major national brands like Lowe's, Ben & Jerry's and General Electric, you can engage, educate and entertain your customers in creative ways certain to grab their attention. Here are 10 ways to get started:
Demonstrate. Use Vine to show customers how to use your products and services. Big box retailer Lowe's used Vine to create "Lowe's Fix in Six" series. Each six-second video clip demonstrated home improvement tricks like removing rust with a lemon juice. Download the Vine app from iTunes and check it out here — https://vine.co/v/bU61aqq2YOp
Create a special promotion. Use Vine to increase participation in a special promotion or contest like Ben & Jerry's did to tell customers about its Free Cone Day. Watch it here: https://vine.co/v/b9QT0WdE2db
Share your history. Share an interesting fact about your company's history. Or tie what you do to a historical event. For example, take a look at what GE did on Thomas Jefferson's 166th birthday in February: http://vine.co/v/bvXIueMeP6j
Display your client work. If you're creating an amazing product or event for a client, share it by showing six exciting seconds of it.
Ask for testimonials. You've probably got customers who use Vine. Put the call out for testimonials and ask them to share their experience in a Vine video.
Share a good deed. For example, if your business is collecting backpacks for needy children, use Vine to upload a video of your efforts. Show your employees purchasing and filling the backpacks with school supplies. You can even show you customers donating backpacks to the cause.
Share the spotlight with your customers. Got loyal customers that deserve recognition? Use Vine to share videos of your customers buying or using your products and services.
Increase foot traffic. If you've got a brick and mortar store location, use Vine to get people in the door like Urban Outfitters did: http://vine.co/v/bnFHDu3vXOw. The retailer had a live band perform and used Vine to showcase it.
Share your production process. For example, if you own a bakery, take customers quickly through what it takes to make your best-selling cupcake or cookie. Invite them to come in for a free sample, too!
Spotlight your staff. Use Vine to create fun videos of your staff introducing themselves and revealing something interesting about what they do.
For more creative ways to use Vine to promote your business, check out the Starting Gate blog.

Michael Lohan: Graceless Even in Death
Not even mourning the loss of his own father can stop Michael "Lo-Life" Lohan from dragging his family through the mud.
Lindsay Lohan's estranged father maintained his unblemished record for publicity-hound scuzzbaggery earlier this week by piping up about a rumored memoir by LiLo companion Samantha Ronson. Lohan accused Ronson of "using my daughter" and said that the relationship "is not in Lindsay's best interest."
Lindsay and Ronson quickly fired back via the Internet, characterizing Papa Lo as "a public embarrassment and a bully" and "so desperate for attention that he goes to the media whenever possible."
Hmm; ya think? Michael's father, Richard Lohan, died of colon cancer on Thursday. While Lindsay sought to use the tragedy to mend broken ties—sending a message to Michael stating, "Now papa has found peace and maybe we can find peace in our lives, too"—her father didn't even wait till the body cooled off to talk trash about his ex-wife to OK! Magazine.
"My father just, literally, died in my arms. I notified all my kids and my lawyer notified Dina's attorney," Lohan blabbed the magazine. "Let's see if she has the decency and respect to bring my kids to the wake and funeral. THIS will show her true colors! Thus, not even a call. But that's par for the course with Dina! She didn't even send a card or visit when he was sick."
With a son like that, it's amazing that Richard Lohan didn't die of shame a long time ago.

BionicBlox wooden construction toys are the result of over 4 years of product development. The development began with a need. The need was defined by a dad whose 4 year old son grew up stacking wood blocks. However, as the son got older, he wanted to build big, sturdy structures.
The building kits for sturdy structures were typically all plastic with many small parts designed more for 8 year olds and also lacked a connection to real world objects and buildings. After scouring the Internet for the right product he realized that there was a big hole in the children's building toy market for kids in the age range of 3-8 years old. Clearly, there was a strong desire to build in these children. Rather than waiting for his son grow up he decided to create the product.
The result is BionicBlox which uses both natural wood along with indestructible, safe and colorful connectors to provide children an open-play building and construction toy. Not only are BionicBlox fun and engaging, they offer a many other benefits listed below.
- Perfect For Children of All Ages
- Build and adjust creations with easy to move BionicStar connectors and perfect sized blocks for both simple and complex structures.
- Mimic Real World Building
- Creations can match real world structures like houses and skyscrapers incorporating geometry, physics and spatial awareness.
- Safe, Fun, Educational
- These are our priorities. BionicBlox provides an outlet for kids to put down the iPod and spend hours filled learning geometry, fractions and imagination.
- Fun For All Ages
- Build and play with your children, help them bring their idea to life.
- A Toy That Grows With Your Child
- No matter how old or young your child is, BionicBlox is just right. Your three year old can build a simple doll house, while your 12 year old can build a space ship.
- Environmentally Friendly
- BionicBlox have been made with as little environmental impact as possible. From the wooden blocks, to the reusable minimal packaging we reduce waste and provide the greatest value to parents.

I decided to tweak the recipe slightly by adding a layer of cinnamon sugar. I also used golden raisins instead of regular raisins because I prefer their taste.. Basically, I took a 'cantaloupe' sized portion of dough from the container where I had kept the dough in the refrigerator for the past two days, lightly flattened it out on a floured surface and sprinkled a good 1/4 cup or so of cinnamon sugar over the dough. I rolled it up and placed in it my pre-greased loaf pan and allowed it to rise for about 90 minutes before baking.
The bread was also brushed with an egg wash before baking and sprinkled with coarse sugar. Looks good, doesn't it? It was!
My swirl of cinnamon didn't end up exactly where I wanted it but that thick blob of cinnamon right in the center certainly was tasty! I guess I have to work on my rolling technique ;) Just one more picture before I started eating...I was already salivating watching the butter melt down the toast!
This bread was so tasty and turned out just how I had hoped. Just like the cinnamon raisin bread I loved from the store but with a heartier attitude!

This handy tool lets you send a line level signal to two destinations with transformer balancing and isolation for one or both of the outputs. The balancing provides superior noise rejection when you have equipment with unbalanced outputs that need to feed equipment with balanced inputs. The transformer isolation helps eliminate unwanted hum and buzz caused by power line and grounding issues.
In ISO mode the signal is passed directly through to one output and transformer isolated to the second output. In SPLIT mode the signal is transformer isolated to both outputs with a resulting 6dB drop in level at each output. A ground lift switch is provided for each output. Both a female XLR and a 1/4" TRS jack are provided for the input signal. Male XLR connectors are used for the output signals.
