Oxford Duplication Centre Audio Recording to CD, WAV, AIFF, MP3 SO WHAT IS WIRE RECORDING? Wire recording or magnetic wire recording was the first early magnetic recording technology. An analog type of audio storage in which a magnetic recording was made on a thin steel wire. The first crude recorder was invented in 1898 by Danish inventor  Valdemar Poulsen.   With the first magnetic audio recorder to be made commercially available anywhere was The Telegraphone, which was manufactured by the American Telegraphone Company in Springfield Massachusetts. HOW DOES IT WORK? The wire is pulled rapidly across a recording head which magnetises each point along the wire in accordance with the intensity and polarity of the electrical audio signal being supplied to the recording head at that instant.   By later drawing the wire across the same or similar head whilst the head is not being supplied with an electrical signal, the varying magnetic field induces a varying ele

DISCUSSING FFV1 The most common challenge in digitising moving image is the file sizes that result from the actual digitisation.  The file sizes can be huge and with that comes the increased cost of storage and maintenance for long term preservation. Common consensus consider 10-bit uncompressed to be the preservation standard for moving image because it uses no file compression.  It is considered the most reliable safest format for moving image preservation at the current time. 10-bit uncompressed deliver high image resolution, colour quality and sharpness whilst avoiding motion compensation and compression artefacts. THE DOWNSIDE TO 10-BIT UNCOMPRESSED 1 hour of 10-bit uncompressed video can produce a 100gb file. To put it into perspective it would take 21 DVDs to store a video of this size.  As you can see, its a lot of data! WHAT IS FFV1?
