The Case Against Low-Frequency Pre-Emphasis in Magnetic Recording

Authors: McKnight, John G.

Journal of the Audio Engineering Society · Volume 10 · Issue 2 · pp. 106–107 · April 1962

Abstract

Data on low-frequency energy distirbution in music do not justify the use of low-frequency pre-emphasis, and subjective low-frequency noise does not require it. Therefore the elimination of low-frequency pre-emphasis is suggested. Practical implications are also discussed.
