From there, the sounds were amplified by the horn.\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-7  col-md-offset-1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"padding-bottom-minimal padding-top-minimal\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<lazy-media-inline inline-template data-id=\"9520\">\n\t\t\t<figure itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" class=\"lazy-media-inline \" role=\"group\" id=\"media_69fc9d7bb70d4\">\n\t\t\t\t<script type=\"application\/json\" ref=\"data\">\n\t\t\t\t{\n\t\t\t\t\"sizes\" : {\"medium\":{\"file\":\"abb03b-edison-standard-phonograph-um-1905-300x261.jpg\",\"width\":300,\"height\":261,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":18975},\"large\":{\"file\":\"abb03b-edison-standard-phonograph-um-1905-1024x891.jpg\",\"width\":1024,\"height\":891,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":143687},\"medium_large\":{\"file\":\"abb03b-edison-standard-phonograph-um-1905-768x668.jpg\",\"width\":768,\"height\":668,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":89400},\"small\":{\"file\":\"abb03b-edison-standard-phonograph-um-1905-440x383.jpg\",\"width\":440,\"height\":383,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":35391},\"semi\":{\"file\":\"abb03b-edison-standard-phonograph-um-1905-580x505.jpg\",\"width\":580,\"height\":505,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":56327},\"mobile\":{\"file\":\"abb03b-edison-standard-phonograph-um-1905-720x626.jpg\",\"width\":720,\"height\":626,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":80760},\"original\":{\"file\":\"abb03b-edison-standard-phonograph-um-1905.jpg\",\"width\":1200,\"height\":1044}},\n\t\t\t\t\"alt\" : \"Edison Standard-Phonograph\",\n\t\t\t\t\"path\" : \"\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/11\\\/\",\n\t\t\t\t\"video\" : null,\n\t\t\t\t\"autoplay\" : null,\n\t\t\t\t\"youtube\" : null,\n\t\t\t\t\"youtubelabel\" : \"play\",\n\t\t\t\t\"brightness\" : 100,\n\t\t\t\t\"crop\" : null,\n\t\t\t\t\"background\" : false,\n\t\t\t\t\"scale\" : 1,\n\t\t\t\t\"zoom\" : false,\n\t\t\t\t\"annotations\" : null\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t<\/script>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"height-container\" style=\"padding-bottom:87%;

With minimal skill, people could record their songs and speeches onto a cylinder. Fleeting moments could now be captured and preserved for the ages. Departed relatives achieved immortality through their recorded voices, while &#8220;phonograms&#8221; featuring the latest news or birthday greetings were sent to friends and family. Talking clocks announced the time every quarter of an hour.

Special tinctures and devices built into the phonograph were used for shaving. Handling the hardened wax required the utmost care as the cylinders were extremely fragile and sensitive to the mere touch of the hands. Even in the cardboard tubes in which the cylinders were sold and stored, mould growth occurred under unfavourable climatic conditions, such as humidity and temperature fluctuations, which irreparably destroyed the surface of the cylinder.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"block block-headline has-highlight-color block-no-margin\" >\n\t<div class=\"container-fluid\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-7 col-md-offset-5\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"box\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"h3\">From sound to cylinder<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"block block-copy settings-intend\">\n\t<div class=\"container-fluid\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-7 col-md-offset-5\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"copy\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>The first commercial recordings entailed a complicated process for recording artists.

Recordings were generally made using only one large recording horn, as can be seen in the adjacent image. Not all instruments were equally suitable for sound recording: woodwind and brass instruments achieved a more natural sound through the recording box diaphragm than stringed instruments. Wind instruments such as horns and bassoons were therefore used to play the bass parts in the place of double basses and cellos.\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-7  col-md-offset-1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"padding-bottom-minimal padding-top-minimal\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<lazy-media-inline inline-template data-id=\"9527\">\n\t\t\t<figure itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" class=\"lazy-media-inline \" role=\"group\" id=\"media_69fc9d7bb8d1f\">\n\t\t\t\t<script type=\"application\/json\" ref=\"data\">\n\t\t\t\t{\n\t\t\t\t\"sizes\" : {\"medium\":{\"file\":\"abb05-orchester-aufnahme-1905-300x220.jpg\",\"width\":300,\"height\":220,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":19052},\"small\":{\"file\":\"abb05-orchester-aufnahme-1905-440x323.jpg\",\"width\":440,\"height\":323,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":35710},\"original\":{\"file\":\"abb05-orchester-aufnahme-1905.jpg\",\"width\":554,\"height\":407}},\n\t\t\t\t\"alt\" : \"Orchester-Aufnahme\",\n\t\t\t\t\"path\" : \"\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/11\\\/\",\n\t\t\t\t\"video\" : null,\n\t\t\t\t\"autoplay\" : null,\n\t\t\t\t\"youtube\" : null,\n\t\t\t\t\"youtubelabel\" : \"play\",\n\t\t\t\t\"brightness\" : 100,\n\t\t\t\t\"crop\" : null,\n\t\t\t\t\"background\" : false,\n\t\t\t\t\"scale\" : 1,\n\t\t\t\t\"zoom\" : false,\n\t\t\t\t\"annotations\" : null\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t<\/script>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"height-container\" style=\"padding-bottom:73.465703971119%;  \" v-if=\"sizes\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<lazy-media :inline=\"true\" :alt=\"alt\" :sizes=\"sizes\" :scale=\"scale\" :zoom=\"zoom\" :brightness=\"brightness\" :path=\"path\" :video=\"video\" :autoplay=\"autoplay\" :youtube=\"youtube\" :crop=\"crop\" :youtubelabel=\"youtubelabel\" :annotations=\"annotations\" :background=\"background\"><\/lazy-media>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lazy-media-image-label\">Orchestra recording  <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lazy-media-image-description\"><em><em>Phonographische Zeitschrift<\/em>, vol. 5, 1904, no. 52, p. 977<\/em> <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t   \t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t<\/lazy-media-inline>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"block\">\n    <div class=\"container-fluid\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n            <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-7\">\n\t\t\t\t<iframe title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/804459685&#038;color=5c5144\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 50vh;\"><\/iframe>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"block block-copy\">\n\t<div class=\"container-fluid\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-7 col-md-offset-5\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"copy\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>The xylophone achieved a very authentic reproduction quality.

With the gramophone rising in popularity, the German company Carl Lindstr\u00f6m Gesellschaft mbH discontinued their production of phonographs as early as 1907. From 1903 onwards, the double-sided record with its longer playing time gradually displaced the cylinder from the market, which also had an effect on the sale of phonographs.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"block block-copy\">\n\t<div class=\"container-fluid\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-7\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"copy\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Edison wasn\u2019t able to extend cylinder playing time until 1908, when his Amberol cylinders doubled the number of grooves while maintaining the same cylinder length for a playing time of four minutes. He derived the brand name Amberol from the English amber, which referred to the cylinder&#8217;s new harder and higher quality wax mixture. To play these cylinders, the phonograph&#8217;s sound box had to be laboriously replaced, as a stylus with higher pressure on the fine grooves was needed. From 1909 onwards, units were produced to accommodate both cylinder systems.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"block block-copy\">\n\t<div class=\"container-fluid\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-7 col-md-offset-5\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"copy\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>But all of Edison&#8217;s innovations could not hide the fact that the cylinder&#8217;s technical possibilities had been exhausted. Despite good results in terms of sound quality, even Edison&#8217;s unbreakable Blue Amberol cylinder, developed in 1912 and made of celluloid, a plastic compound mounted on a moulded plaster core, could not revive the business. Playing time remained limited, which restricted repertoires and made it impossible to play longer classical works in particular.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"block block-copy\">\n\t<div class=\"container-fluid\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-7\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"copy\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>The potential of the record, on the other hand, was far from exhausted. It was also easier to handle, effortless to store and, above all, simple and inexpensive to reproduce. Even Edison began producing records from 1912, the Diamond Disc, which he developed himself but which failed to catch on. In 1929 Edison stopped producing phonographs and closed his company.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"block\">\n    <div class=\"container-fluid\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n            <div class=\"col-xs-12\">\n\t\t\t\t<iframe title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/playlists\/1216519612&#038;color=%23ff5500&#038;auto_play=false&#038;hide_related=false&#038;show_comments=true&#038;show_user=true&#038;show_reposts=false&#038;show_teaser=true&#038;visual=true\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 100vh;\"><\/iframe>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An invention by Thomas Alva Edison allowed for sounds to be recorded and reproduced faithfully for the very first time.
