History of Sound Recording Technology - Documentary The second wave of 'sound history records been announced the introduction of an integrated system of Western Electric, electric microphones, electronic amplifiers signals and electric drum machines, which was adopted by the major US record labels in 1925, recording Sound has now become a hybrid process - the sound can be captured, amplified, filtered, and balanced in electronic form, and the disc-cutting head is now electrically controlled, but the recording process remained essentially mechanically - the signal was still physically inscribed in metal or wax 'master' drive and consumer discs are mass-produced mechanically forming an impression of the original disc to the right medium initially shellac and polyvinyl plastic later. Westrex system significantly improved the accuracy of the voice recording playback, increasing the playback frequency range for a wider frequency band (60 Hz to 6000 Hz) and enables a new class of professional - the engineer of audio - to capture a fuller, richer and more detailed and balanced sound on the record, with using multiple microphones connected to a multichannel electronic amplifiers, compressors, filters, mixers, and sound. Electric microphones have led to a dramatic change in the manner of execution of the singers, he entered the era of "singer", while the electric amplification had a massive impact in many areas, which allows the development of radio broadcasting, public address systems and electrically -amplified house gramophones. In addition, the development of electronic amplifiers for musical instruments is now included quieter instruments such as guitar and string bass to compete on an equal footing with natural loud wind and horn instruments and musicians and composers also began to experiment with an entirely new electronic musical instruments, such Theremin , the Ondes Martenot, an electronic organ and Hammond Novachord, the world's first polyphonic synthesizer analogue.
