  • The Short Life of Wire Recording
    Seth Anderson Moving Image and Sound: Basic Issues and Training H72.2920 Wire recording November 18, 2010 Obsolete on Arrival: The Short Life of Wire Recording For two short periods in history, wire recording held the fascination of the world. As a new technology for recording sound at the turn of the 20th Century, the first example of magnetic recording, these convenient, technologically advanced recorders were poised to replace the supposedly outmoded mechanical recorders. Yet, within the short span of twenty years, from 1900 to 1920, the format entered an early period of obsolescence, outclassed by the very machine it was meant to improve upon, the phonograph. Resurrected twenty years later, in the wake of World War II, the wire recorder entered an era of unprecedented success, taking its place as the most popular and convenient sound recorder. But even as this newly popular machine reached its peak, the technological advancement that would eventually be its replacement was in development. By the end of the 1950’s, wire recording was an obsolete technology, with only approximately 15-20 years as a preferred recording medium. Replaced by magnetic tape, which dominated the market for nearly twice as long, wire recording became a curio. The technological advancement of tape recording was not the sole reason for the medium’s demise. This magnetic recording format, the first of its kind, was victim to colossal corporate mismanagement and the whims of a fickle marketplace looking for the next technological novelty. This paper will examine the simple mechanics of wire 1 recording and trace the troubled history of the manufacture and commercialization of the original magnetic recording format in order to illustrate the causes of wire recording’s rapid obsolescence.
