I always struggle with that for equalizers. I think, I understand the concept, but no matter how much I fuck up the sliders on the equalizer, I always find it interesting more than anything else. It sounds different, sure enough, but is it better or worse? No idea.

Oooh oooh oooh! Now's my chance to say a snobby thing! "They're called faders, not sliders."

I learned this from also calling them sliders.

Also, when I get to run a camera for work, I like fucking with the AV guys by asking them to "turn down the sound dimmer, I can hear myself too loud on the headset." (The comms mixer has knobs to control this at my end.)
