SAAPE Leads New Recording Standards Committee
WORK is being started immediately to prepare standards resulting in better performance of disc and magnetic recordings used on home record players and in broadcast and motion picture studios. The work, as planned, will also include film sound track, stated the American Standards Association, sponsors of the committee, which has been formed under the leadership of the SMPE and IRE. Representatives of radio manufacturers, broadcasting systems and the Army and Navy Departments are cooperating.
Standard definitions of terms, methods for determining the quality of sound and standard dimensions to insure complete interchangeability and more satisfactory cooperation of automatic record changers are among the problems to be undertaken immediately.
Magnetic tape and wire recording are also under consideration; standards to be provided before dimensional differences in the magnetic material and in recording and playback equipment have been widely accepted. Other problems before the committee will be agreement on uniform definitions of technical terms and solution of the uneven volume level and sound distortion on disc recordings.
Chairman of the committee is George M. Nixon of NBC's engineering staff, assisted by John K. Hilliard of the Altec Lansing Corporation and SMPE as vicechairman. Five technical subcommittees have been set up to correlate the work of existing organizations, consisting of representatives of the SMPE, RMA, NAB, IRE and ASA.
