(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Audio mixing is used in sound recording, audio editing and sound systems to control the relative signal levels as among a number of signal sources, typically the different instruments in a band.Sometimes audio mixing is done live by a sound engineer, for example at rock concerts and other musical performances where a public address system is used. A typical concert has two mixers, one located in the audience to mix the PA heard by the audience, and the other is located at the side of the stage, mixing for the monitor speakers positioned directly in front of the performers so that they can hear one another.
At other times, audio mixing is done in studios as part of multitrack recording in order to produce audio recordings for release on Compact Disc or as part of a film or television program.
An audio mixing console or desk (Brit.) may have several controls such as rotating or sliding knobs, one for each channel of audio. Each channel of the console may have other knobs which equalize, or attenuate certain frequencies, of the incoming audio signal. Larger and more complex consoles such as are used in film and television production can contain dozens of channels, and they may be automated so that the movement of the console's controls is performed automatically, not unlike a player piano. Audio mixing, or just mixing can also refer to a DJ mixing the end of one pre-recorded song into another so that the transition is seemless. Sometimes called beat-matching or beat-mixing.

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
MIX is the mythical computer used in Donald Knuth's textbook, The Art of Computer Programming. Its model number is 1009, which was chosen by combining the numbers and names of other machines that the designer was familiar with. (Conveniently, the roman numerals "MIX" also denote 1009.)MIX is replaced by a wholly new machine, MMIX, in the later editions of the textbook. In the meantime, you can find software that emulates MIX. Called MIXware by Donald Knuth. GNU MDK is one such program, which is known to be running on a wide variety of platforms.
Architecture
MIX is both a binary and a decimal computer. When programmed in binary, each byte has 6 bits (values range from 0 to 63). In decimal, each byte has 2 decimal digits (values range from 0 to 99). Bytes are grouped into words of five bytes plus a sign. Most programs written for MIX will work in either binary or decimal, so long as they do not try to store a value greater than 63 in a single byte.
A word has the range -1,073,741,824 to 1,073,741,824 (on a binary machine), or -10,000,000,000 to 10,000,000,000 (decimal machine) and distinguishes between +0 and -0. (Most modern machines use two's complement binary arithmetic, and have only one zero. Programming arithmetic on MIX requires taking into account the fact that +0 ≠ -0.)
Registers
There are 9 registers in MIX:
MIX records whether the previous operation overflowed, and a comparison indicator (less than, equal to, or greater than).
- rA: Accumulator (full word).
- rX: Extension (full word).
- rI1 ... rI6: Index registers (two bytes and a sign).
- rJ: Jump address (two bytes, always positive).
Memory and Input/Output
The MIX machine has 4000 words of storage (each with 5 bytes and a sign), addressed from 0 to 3999. A variety of input and output devices are also included:
- Tape units (devices 0 ... 7).
- Disk or drum units (devices 8 ... 15).
- Card reader (device 16).
- Card punch (device 17).
- Line printer (device 18).
- Typewriter terminal (device 19).
- Paper tape (device 20).
Instructions
Each machine instruction in memory occupies one word, and consists of 4 parts: the address (2 bytes and the sign of the word) in memory to read or write; an index specification (1 byte, describing which rI index register to use) to add to the address; a modification (1 byte) that specifies which parts of the register will be read or altered; and the operation code (1 byte). All operation codes have an associated mnemonic.
MIX programs are typically constructed using the MIXAL programming language, for an example see the Hello world page.
