The rugged "333" is highly recommended for motion-picrure studios. TV studios, radio stations, professional recording, and all other uses where quality requirements are of the highest. The "333" is super-cardioid, uni-directional-reduces the pickup of random noise energy by 73%-prevents the pickup of moving props and scuming feet. The "333" Studio features the patented, world-famous Shure "Uniphase" acoustical network system-a field-proved standard of quality. Jm&L1525'swmo sLE.DvNE OMNI-DIRECTIONAL DYNAMIC MICROPHONE* The Studio "525" is an exceptionally fine, slender microphone of broadcast quality. It is custom-built to provide high fidelity reproduction of voice and music. The microphone has complete versatility and reliability for indoor and outdoor use and may be used: (1) an a conventional floor or desk stand, (2) in the hand, and (3) with the lavalier cord and belt clip assembly. The use of high efficiency magnetic materials and specially designed magnetic circuits has made it possible to develop this small microphone and still achieve maximum owrating effi- ciency. The microphone is ruggedly built to withstand hard usage and is unaffected by temperature and humidity variations. V&.300 \.umo GRADIENT^ BI-DIRECTIONAL RIBBON MICROPHONE* This professional quality multi-impedance microphone is widely used for tape recording, broadcast and highest quality Public Address use. The "300" has a specially designed anti-"PFF" filter screen-which eliminates pickup of distracting breath noises. It provides sound pickup at the front and rear of the microphone, but greatly reduces pickup at the sides. One of the outstanding features of the "300" is the fact that the microphone can be placed at a 73y0greater distance from the performer than is possible with omni-directional microphones. It is ideal for highest-quality reproduction, especially wherever multi-person pickup is desired, yet background noise must be reduced. *Available in matched setsfor sicreo recording at no additional cost.

  • 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.

    Measurement of Loudspeaker and Microphone Performance using Dual Channel FFT-Analysis by Henrik Biering M.Sc, Briiel&Kjcer Introduction In general, the components of an audio system have well-defined — mostly electrical — inputs and out­ puts. This is a great advantage when it comes to objective measurements of the performance of such devices. Loudspeakers and microphones, how­ ever, being electro-acoustic transduc­ ers, are the major exceptions to the rule and present us with two impor­ tant problems to be considered before meaningful evaluation of these devices is possible. Firstly, since measuring instru­ ments are based on the processing of electrical signals, any measurement of acoustical performance involves the Fig. 1. General set-up for loudspeaker measurements. The Digital Cassette Recorder Type use of both a transmitter and a receiv- 7400 is used for storage of the measurement set-ups in addition to storage of the If we intend to measure the re- measured data.

Secondly, neither the output of a loudspeaker nor the input to a micro­ phone are well-defined under practical circumstances where the interaction between the transducer and the room cannot be neglected if meaningful re­ sults — i.e. results correlating with subjective evaluations — are to be ob­ tained.

  • Digital Audio Tapes: Their Preservation and Conversion 1 Smithsonian Institution Archives Summer 2010
    Digital Audio Tapes: Their Preservation and Conversion 1 Smithsonian Institution Archives Summer 2010 Digital Audio Tapes: Their Preservation and Conversion Susan Eldridge, Digital Services Intern Overview Digital Audio Tapes (DATs) are 4mm (or 3.81mm) magnetic tape cassettes that store audio information in a digital manner. DATS are visually similar to compact audio cassettes, though approximately half the size, use thinner tapes, and can only be recorded on one side. Developed by Sony in 1987, DATs were quite popular in recording studios and were one of the first digital recording systems to become employed in archives in the late 1980s and 1990s due to their lossless encoding. Commercial use of DATs, on the other hand, never achieved the same success as the machines were expensive and commercial recordings were not available on DAT. Depending on the tape and machine used, DATs allow four different sampling modes: 32 kHz at 12 bits quantization, and 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, and 48 kHz at 16 bits.1 All support two-channel stereo recording. Some of the later DATs (before being discontinued) could extend the bit-depth to 24 and up to 98 kHz, however, these tapes were likely rarely playable on other models.2 DATs can run between 15 and 180 minutes in length, one again depending on the tape and quality of the sampling. Unlike some other digital media, DATs do not use lossy data compression, which is important in the lossless transferring of a digital source to a DAT. Sony ultimately discontinued the production of DAT machines in 2005.3 Composition A digital magnetic tape is composed of two primary layers: the base film and magnetic layer.
