We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

FOX MOVIETONE SYSTEM 363 presents the amount of energy prevailing at different parts of the recording circuit. Under CT, which is the abbreviation for condenser transmitter, we find that this unit plus the condenser transmitter amplifier is capable of a range of approximately FIGURE 6 45 db from minus 85 db to minus 43 db. The passage of these voice currents through the mixing panel is attenuated approximately 6 db, and then it is raised in the 8C amplifier to a maximum gain of approximately 80 db. The level at the Aeolight is approximately plus 12 db, and for direct monitoring the drop across a resistor in the Aeolight circuit provides a new monitoring level of approximately 50 db, which is then raised in an AC operated amplifier of the type 41-A and 42-A, to approximately plus 16 db for final output into the monitoring horns.
