SEND is usually short for AUX SEND (Auxillary Send). It is often used to add effects such as reverb or delay to sound being routed through the mixer. The 'dry' uneffected sound goes straight through the mixer to the main stereo outputs; but you can choose to SEND some of the audio signal through an AUXILLARY route where it can go through an effects unit, (reverb for example), before RETURNING to the original main signal path. The portion of the audio that you SEND through to an effect such as reverb via the AUX route is known as WET. The portion of the audio that stays on the main path through the mixer is DRY.

What is the purpose of an audio mixer?
What a mixing console or "desk" does is allow several audio sources to be "mixed" into one. It's called a "summing" circuit. Let's say you were trying to record your friend playing a guitar and singing. You've got a cable coming out of her microphone and another coming out of her guitar. If you were to just cut the ends off the two cables, twist them together, solder a plug on the end and hook them to your tape deck, the sound would be all distorted and nasty. But if you use a mixing console aka mixer it will sound better.The device described above is a mixing "console" which is a mixer with other things in it, like reverb, limiters, equalizers, delay lines...a mixer is part of a console. The person called a sound mixer runs the mixing console.In a live concert setting, the person known as the sound mixer, also called the Front Of House Sound Engineer, is the person who combines all of the microphones on stage into a balanced mix for the listening audience.In a recording studio, the sound mixer is responsible for recording the music onto digital or analog media and then remixing the music into a final mix for release to the listening public.In film and television production, the sound mixer, also called a sound recordist, is the person on set who records the dialog and sound effects that will be used in the movie or television show.
When was audio invented?
In its broadest sense, "audio" simply means the range of sound frequencies that can be perceived by humans. In that sense, no one invented it, it is simply the stimulus that we receive through the sense of hearing. If, by "audio", you mean the means to transform sound into an electrical signal, the answer would be about 1876. Both Elisha Gray and Alexander Graham Bell purposefully experimented with devices that functioned as microphones. About two years later, Thomas Edison developed the phonograph, an audio recording and playback device, but it was purely a mechanical device and did not use electrical signals.

What does BUS mean in terms of Audio Mixing and Recording?
BUS relates to how separate audio channels are routed through a mixing desk, (real or virtual). Example 1: a 16:2 mixer has 16 channels that can be simply mixed down to the 2 channel stereo main output Example 2: a 16:4:2 mixer has 16 channels that can be organized into 4 separate sub-groups (busses) before they reach the 2 channel main stereo output. This is very useful in many ways: A 4 channel bus can be controlled from one fader - much easier! Sub mixes can be created for separate groups of instruments: bus 1 = drums bus 2 = electric guitars for example; with different EQ, compression, reverb etc settings for each bus.
