The main focus was to be on acoustic design with the use of scale drawings to make the studio clear and easy to understand. For this studio the idea was to design a space suitable for recording large ensemble groups such as orchestras and so the space was
The History of Sound Recording The methods used to produce, edit, and record music and sound have changed with the introduction of new sound technology. The compatibility of computer technology with music recording has led to large scale developments in computer-based systems, especially by home users.

weekend, continuously walking and circling the 9/11 memorial pools in an almost figure eight fashion, I performed two different types of note taking: audio recording and hand-written. Of course, both methods had their advantages and disadvantages. First, the audio recording was great for picking up details. As I type my observations, the audio recording paints a fuller picture of the field and help me recollect events much better. However, one disadvantage is that the notes are a bit long. I recorded
tracings of the vibrations of sound. Thomas Edison, starting about 1877, made great improvements in mechanical sound recording and was the first inventor to achieve the actually audible reproduction of recorded sound. The greatest advances, however, were made after the adoption in 1925 of electromechanical systems using electronic amplifiers (see record player ). Generally, in recording, the sound waves impinge on a microphone and are converted into an electrical signal that is recorded by a tape recorder

Aragorn says, "Not if we hold true to each other Let's hunt some orc!" (The Fellowship of the Ring [video recording]). A hero like Aragorn never gives up hope. Instead, he always looks to a positive future which raises the spirits of his companions as well. Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli later make it to Edoras, a city ruled by Théoden in Rohan.

Many people view video cameras as an invasion of privacy. People think that if they are being recorded, these recordings could be misused. However, in most cases of recording the safety the cameras provide is more important than the possibility of misuse. Misuse of information is also possible on the internet. Any employer can look up an employee or future employee’s profile if his or her name is linked to it. This is not an invasion of privacy, but can be if it is used as discrimination. It has
Elvis decided that he should see where he could take this opportunity. He went into the studio and recorded two songs for his mother.

was responsible for the first audio recording back in 1877, using a phonograph to record the impressions into a tin-wrapped cylinder. He promptly applied for a patent, and was granted one the next February. This first model held the field for a few years, until 1881, when Charles Tainter in Volta Labs developed the first lateral-cut records (similar to the vinyl records we’re familiar with). Unfortunately, he had not developed a method of playback, just recording. This held until 1885, when Tainter
