Unpopular opinion, magnetic tape is still the most accurate method of recording sound. When I used to record on digital my vocals sounded strange and distorted. Just enough for only me to recognize that they sounded off (both home studio and professional fully equipped studios alike). But once I started getting into tape, I instantly recognized my voice sounded exactly like I hear myself sing. So much so, I now record and mix fully on analog tape. Maybe i’m wrong but I know my own voice. Tape is the only thing that has captured me perfectly
Wow...that guy spraying the lacquer with silver, while wearing no protective mask...I wonder what his lungs were like after a few years. Thanks for OSHA today!!!
My dad Rich Schiller had one single 45 published the song If I had a daddy & Papi's still I have been looking for it everywhere but can not find it. Would someone know how or possibly where I can look?
MyFootage.com dunno about better, modern has better fidelity but good equipment then was really, really good. Most people didn't have great equipment though, and it was all very limited.
AfterMidnight geez why do people assume they were in the Stone Age? High end equipment could reproduce the full 20-20k, or very close. Good microphones from that era sound wonderful even now, if they're in good shape. It's just that back then, the average person didn't have great equipment, though hifi enthusiasts and audiophiles sure did. Had higher noise floors, though, and much much more expensive than good stuff is now.
There's a lot of answers but the first one is "They had modern recording technology. That's what you just saw." The technology we use today, the digital technology, is a compromise. It allows for easier editing and has post production flexibility. However it lacks warmth and character. Good studios still use magnetic tape and 50 year old microphones.
The 45 that was pressed/trimmed at the end was "The Man Upstairs" by Kay Starr, the B side of Capitol single #F2769 which was released in 1954.
wmbrown6 Great catch, thanks for the comment!
This awesome…… so glad it came on my suggested videos……

How did they get such clean recordings in the 50s without the modern recording technology?
AfterMidnight Actually it was better technology!
AfterMidnight Those RCA Living Stereo LP's from the 50's are the best records ever made, designed to be played 2-3,000 times.

why did you ruin the video with your big fat logo?
Then 10ish years later we decided all beatles recordings will be beaten to a pulp after making the mold
Turnips & swedes
Dull and bland.
