No one wants to answer the CONTEXT. The Mackie Example. Or the mastering EQ example. Or, a third example: I pull my NS-10 speaker out of its cabinet, wire it to a 1/4 connector. Placing it in front of a bass drum its now a microphone. Minutes before it was a speaker. Both transducers, but no one would call it a speaker in front of the kick drum, and no one would call it a microphone set up in its cab on top of my console and no one should call a filter that only goes to 250 Hz a HIGH PASS FILTER ... but I am tilting windmills with this audience.
I meant to beat manufacturers and silk screeners about the head and shoulders with pointed (and/or blunt sticks, maces, flails, cudgels, morning stars, Bohemian ear spoons, etc.), not any of YOU gentle contributors. Again, I very well was misleading in my first (admittedly vague) missive, for which I apologize a THIRD time.
Lord in Heaven. Bethel has over 9,957,084 posts suggesting audio engineers commit immediate mass suicide (spanning multiple boards and eras) and I ask a single question... I can't even write what I want to write for decency's sake......
