    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.

    Chapter 3: "Transferring Vinyl Lps (And Other Legacy Media) To

    3 TRANSFERRINGVINYLLPS(AND OTHERLEGACYMEDIA)TOCD A great way to preserve and enjoy old recordings is to transfer them from any legacy medium—vinyl LPs, cassette tapes, reel-to-reel tapes, vintage 78s, videocassettes, even eight-track tapes—to CD. Or you can transfer them to a hard drive, solid-state drive, or whatever digital storage medium you prefer. Transferring phonograph records to CD is in demand, and you might even be able to get a nice sideline going doing this. A lot of people are still hanging on to their record collections but are afraid to enjoy them because LPs are fragile. A lot of great albums have never been released on commer- cial CDs, or the modern CD remasters are not done well. Some people sim- ply prefer the sound of their old records. Although you can copy any analog media and convert it to any digital audio format, in this chapter we’ll talk mostly about transferring vinyl record albums and singles to CDs. Once you have converted your old analog media to a digital format, Audacity has a number of tools for cleaning up the sound quality. You may not always be able to perform perfect restorations, but you can reduce hiss, clicks, pops, and other defects to quite tolerable levels. You can also customize dynamic range compression to suit your own needs, which is a nice thing because on modern popular CDs, dynamic range com- pression is abused to where it spoils the music. Even if they did it well, it might not be right for you, so Audacity lets you do it your way.

Digital’s power was most graphically illustrated in the arena of distribution. The unauthorized digital distribution of music via peer-to-peer (P2P) networks like Napster and Grokster was often cited as the primary force behind the music industry sales slump that began in 2001. Ironically, although these P2P networks also presented a method for legitimate digital distribution via the Internet, record labels, which had reaped a fortune from the sales of CDs for two decades, perceived digital distribution as a threat rather than an opportunity. When Philips and Sony collaborated on the development of the compact disc (CD) in the early 1980s, no one could have predicted the extent to which digital technology, in combination with the Internet (which was still gestating at the time), would revolutionize the music industry.
