Abbreviation for Front of House. This distinction comes from theater work where Front of House is any part of the theatre in front of the proscenium arch. In concert and PA applications it is generically used to describe anything in the audience area. Specifically the main, or house mixing position is referred to as the FOH position, which is meant to differentiate the main house mixer from the monitor mixer normally located to the side of the stage.
