Convention Paper

Extending the Dynamic Range of Magnetic Recorders

Authors: Clunis, Kenneth

AES Convention 15 · Paper 321 · October 1963

Abstract

The dynamic recording range of magnetic recorders is limited primarily by tape characteristics - saturation and tape noise. By using multi-track recording with staggered levels and an automatic selector, additional range of about 15 db can be achieved in a typical system with no sacrifice in the audible quality.
