control booth
Sound engineer's station
A control booth is an enclosed space, usually elevated and windowed, where technicians operate equipment that governs what happens in a larger area.
Recording studios have control booths for sound engineers, theaters have them for lighting operators, and sports arenas have them for scoreboards and announcements.
The booth provides isolation from the controlled space while maintaining a clear view of it.
