MOTION PICTURE SOUND RECORDING
(Continued from Page 19) horns were also turned on and their switches set on tap twenty, they would not disturb the impedance match. For three horns, possihle combinations would be taps two, six and eight ; or taps four, six and six. The exact combination used in any particular case depends on the comparative volumes of sound required of the several horns.
Photo-Electric Cell Monitoring
The two relays that are shown in the diagrams are known as relays No. 1 and No. 2. Their windings are energized by current from the twelve-volt storage battery that supplies power to the signal system. Two key switches mounted on the mixer panel in the monitor room control the relays. Another set of key switches installed in the middle amplifier bay permits the transmission engineer to operate the relays when making gain runs or other tests on the recording system.
When relay No. 1 is in its normal position, the circuit is connected for direct monitoring. When relay No. 2 is normal, its blades are connected to the photo-electric cell amplifier in film recording machine No. 1. If the monitor man closes the key switch controlling relay No. 1, that relay is energized and connects the monitoring amplifier to the photo-electric cell monitoring circuit. Since the No. 2 relay is normal to PEC amplifier No. 1, the monitoring amplifier is connected in the above case to that PEC amplifier. But if the key switch associated with relay No. 2 is also closed, the energizing of that relay transfers the monitoring amplifier to the output of PEC amplifier No. 2.
This arrangement provides the monitor man with means for checking at any time on the continuity of the film recording circuits. No means is available for him to check on the wax (or disc) recording machines; but that is not necessary because the recording engineer keeps the cutting of the wax record under constant observation during recording to determine if there is any cutting over between grooves.
The photo-electric cell amplifiers will be described in the chapters on film recording, which will be the subject that will be begun in next month's issue.
