Sampling frequency determines the audio bandwidth of the system. CDs use S = kHz and DVDs and other newer audio systems may use 48 or higher. Lowpass filter: If the signal contains frequencies higher than S/2, aliasing ("foldover") distortion will result in which false frequencies lower than S/2 will result.

  • How to Tape-Record Primate Vocalisations Version June 2001
    How To Tape-Record Primate Vocalisations Version June 2001 Thomas Geissmann Institute of Zoology, Tierärztliche Hochschule Hannover, D-30559 Hannover, Germany E-mail: [email protected] Key Words: Sound, vocalisation, song, call, tape-recorder, microphone Clarence R. Carpenter at Doi Dao (north of Chiengmai, Thailand) in 1937, with the parabolic reflector which was used for making the first sound- recordings of wild gibbons (from Carpenter, 1940, p. 26). Introduction Ornithologists have been exploring the possibilities and the methodology of tape- recording and archiving animal sounds for many decades. Primatologists, however, have only recently become aware that tape-recordings of primate sound may be just as valuable as traditional scientific specimens such as skins or skeletons, and should be preserved for posterity. Audio recordings should be fully documented, archived and curated to ensure proper care and accessibility. As natural populations disappear, sound archives will become increasingly important. This is an introductory text on how to tape-record primate vocalisations. It provides some information on the advantages and disadvantages of various types of equipment, and gives some tips for better recordings of primate vocalizations, both in the field and in the zoo. Ornithologists studying bird sound have to deal with very similar problems, and their introductory texts are recommended for further study (e.g. Budney & Grotke 1997; © Thomas Geissmann Geissmann: How to Tape-Record Primate Vocalisations 2 Kroodsman et al. 1996). For further information see also the websites listed at the end of this article. As a rule, prices for sound equipment go up over the years. Prices for equipment discussed below are in US$ and should only be used as very rough estimates.

Digital radio broadcasting under the Eureka 147 DAB project offered many technical enhancements – more efficient use of the spectrum, improved transmission methods, and lower running costs – features that were attractive to industry professionals, broadcasting organisations, regulators and spectrum planners. But digital radio was also designed as a consumer proposition offering audiences a new and improved listening experience with ease of tuning, reliable reception, text and data services, interactive features, and significantly, ‘CD- quality’ audio.

  • Digital Devices in Sociolinguistic Fieldworks
    Digital Devices in Sociolinguistic Fieldworks* [NOTE: This is a largely modified version of Matsuda (2000) and was presented at METHODS (International Conference on Methods in Dialectology) IX Meeting at University of Joensuu on August 5, 2002. In addition to the people I mentioned in Matsuda (2000), I would like to send my cordial thanks to Paul Kerswill, Renée Fürst, T. de Graaf, John Nerbonne, for their comments and discussions at the conference. Renée deserves special thanks here, for providing me with additional references after the conference. It should be stressed, however, that all remaining errors are mine only. This research is partly supported by Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research #13410139 from Japan Society for the Promotion of Science.] Kenjiro Matsuda Kobe Shoin Women''s University [email protected] 0. Introduction 1. Recyclability of Sociolinguistic Fieldwork Data With the beginning of Variationist paradigm in 1960s, sociolinguists began tape-recording and analyzing the daily speeches in the speech community. The search for the vernacular (in the sense of Labov 1972) was a clear departure from the traditional dialectological fieldwork that elicits a speaker’s response using a questionnaire. The interview may involve one or multiple speakers (group session), but in either case, there is no pre-set time length and the interview may go on as long as the speaker wants to talk. The interviewer may have a course of questions (module) to facilitate the naturalistic interview, so that s/he can obtain a wide range of speech style from the speaker, but the basic principle here is to follow the flow of the talk.

Effective business communication is vital to the success of your organization. Give and Take A common misconception in the business environment is that communication only flows in one direction: from management down to employees. They were able to listen to 45 minutes, extracted from recordings made on two crucial days. Research Services. On the afternoon of 1 October, three Saudi intelligence officers flew into Istanbul. These meetings help everyone present be heard objectively, especially when business strategy development or business pricing strategies need to occur. Instead, you should focus on how a complete website redesign will benefit his business. Statutory Notes and Related Subsidiaries. When they re-emerge, the man previously dressed in Khashoggi's clothes has changed. Imagine that you're trying to explain to a customer that he needs a complete website makeover rather than a few minor changes. The 6 percent state hotel occupancy tax is waived if the producer stays for 30 consecutive days or longer. A common misconception in the business environment is that communication only flows in one direction: from management down to employees. A year ago, an exiled Saudi journalist took the same journey. Also taxable is electricity used by someone who rents a recording studio. Include a strong, clear statement that reinforces your beliefs and relates to the topic.

  • Glossary of Common Audio/Video Terms
    GLOSSARY OF COMMON AUDIO/VIDEO TERMS ABSOLUTE PHASE: Correct polarity (direction of energy) over two stereo channels. ABSORPTION : The weakening of radio wave strength by losses in various materials ABSORPTION TRAP: A parallel-tuned circuit made of either capacitors or coils used to absorb and reduce interfering signals. “ACADEMY” FILTER: A high frequency filter used in some advanced home theater controllers to compensate for the overly bright soundtrack of many earlier films. AC (Alternating Current): An electrical current that periodically reverses direction. The rate of change is known as frequency and is measured in Hertz (cycles per second). Standard wall outlets supply alternating cur rent. ACOUSTICS: The science of sound. ACOUSTIC BAFFLE: Padding designed to absorb sound and diminish the reflection of sound waves, often used in the side walls near the front of a home theater. ACOUSTIC SUSPENSION (a.k.a. Air Suspension): Type of loudspeaker system that utilizes a sealed enclosure. ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter): Circuit that converts analog (varying amplitude) signal to a digital (pulse type) signal. AE: (Audio Erase): The related circuit or the magnetic head that is placed ahead of the audio/control head. It functions to erase the audio track in preparation for a new sound recording. AFC (Automatic Frequency Control): Circuit in a tuner that maintains a constant frequency regardless of changes in power supply or other conditions. AGC (Automatic Gain Control): Circuit that maintains a constant luminance level regardless of input. In television, minimizes picture differences with changes in strength of incoming signals. AHD (Audio High Density): System of digital audio recording on grooveless discs, employing an electronically guided capacitance pickup.

  • The Phonographic Industry and the Recorded Music Market: a Long Misunderstanding

It also shows that these doubts have always led to the reinvention of the conventions that have shaped the activities of this organisational and commercial field. Based on an analytical perspective that draws on the theoretical contributions of institutionalist economic sociology (Powell and DiMaggio, 1991; Fligstein, 1996 and 2001) and the economic sociology of conventions (Boltanski and Thévenot, 1991 and 1999; Thévenot, 2002), it discusses the dilemmas experienced by the industry, exploring the hypothesis that these have emerged as a result of the different orders of worth mobilised to coordinate activities in the phonographic field.
