History Of Recorded Sound Part 1: The Phonautograph and Phonograph

Image
If you follow our YouTube channel, then you are aware we are working on a new series where every week we will discuss a small section of the history of music and audio recording. I decided that once a week I will make a written version of the YouTube video so that the people who don't watch the channel, can still get the information. However, the written version will have a bit more information in it as it doesn't require as much work to produce and I'm more comfortable making written content than a video. THE BEGINNING:  The history of audio recording is divided into eras; the first of which is called The Analogue Era (AE for short). The AE focuses on the time from 1854 to about 1930. Now when most people think of the beginning of audio recording, they are more than likely under the assumption that Thomas Edison was the first person to figure out and produce a way to record sound, but this is not true. The first person to actually find a way to record sound wa...

2018 In Review

Hey readers, It has been a long time since I posted on here. I've been so busy the last few months that the Blogger page took a back seat.

That doesn't seem like much but when you're working, in 3 bands, working on a record label, writing blog posts, running 2 YouTube channels and working on a solo ...

History of Recorded Sound Part 3: Berliner and Montreal

This week for history Monday we will be talking more about Victor talking machine company and Montreal’s role in the beginning of the recording industry. If you watched the previous episode of history Monday you know that Emilee Berliner and Eldredge Johnson founded the united states gramophone company in the late 1890’s and after dealing with many lawsuits and companies stealing his designs, Berliner decided to transfer all of his patent's to Johnson. Johnson rebranded the company as Victor talking machine company. Before the mid-1920’s recording was done in a purely acoustical way. The sounds were played into a horn and then the vibrations would make a diaphragm that was held in place vibrate and then the vibrations would make the stylus move; the stylus would engrave the waveforms into the disc or cylinder and voila you had your recording. However, you could not play back the recording you had because they were made on a soft wax, and if you played it back you woul...
