      Wait till you realize that as long as you can code the groves to make vocals and instrument sounds, real vocals and instruments aren’t really necessary. The groves sending signals to the speakers can reproduce any sound.

    • @kjell159
      @kjell159 4 года назад +22

      This is my copied comment as this question popped up in the whole comment section haha:
      When you listen to stereo music you literally only have 2 channels.
      In modern day DAW (audio software) some producers/audio engineers mix up to, sometimes even more then 100 channels, into only 2!
      Imagine, when listening to mono music (like the built-in speaker of your smartphone or when you're not in the right listening spot) you're listening to just 1 channel of audio!
      In other words, you can differentiate all these instruments out of 1 single audio channel reaching your ears.
      Even the concept of what is an instrument in an audio recording is to some degree arbitrary.
      When you're à kid with no knowledge about certain instruments & timbres, you don't classify/define the sounds your shearing as certain instruments, you just hear the whole.
      We humans define what we're hearing as certain instruments, based on knowledge of and prior listening experience.
      In the studio certain instruments are layered. So what you believe to be 1 specific instrument might be mixed in the studio as 20 separate tracks, yet you personally experience/define it as 1 specific, definable instrument.
      Because in the end, it's just a sound wave, subjectively interpreted by our human brains. (good nor bad music don't physically exist, it's a subjective experience by the individual listener or the group of listeners)
      To an alien listening to a stereo vinyl recording, it will probably just sound as random noise.
      To YOU, it sounds like drums, bass & guitar.
      You can study this with ethnic music.
      When certain tribes were studied, they perceived both major as minor western tuned triad chords as neutral. A lot of musical perspective is purely subjective and ingrained by the place & time you were born, with what sounds/music you grew up with.
      I play shakuhachi (a traditional Japanese instrument) and I can tell you that the traditional repertoire isn't what you probably perceive as 'music'/expect music to be.
      There's an emphasis on different sound colors and usually an absence of metered tempo. The moments where you breathe for example, are actually part of the piece.
      Certain 'notes' like an ou and a chi meri, besides having relative pitch differing from one instrument to another, have the same pitch in western terms but a vastly different sound and are notated and described as being actual different tones.
      Meri notes are supposed to sound less forceful (taijitu principle, yin & yang like in Taoism which comes back in zen traditions) and more melancholic like.
      In comparison, the tones on a western concert flute are supposed to have a consistent timbre, the tones on a shakuhachi are supposed to differ in timbre. Different musical traditions, although the shakuhachi wasn't initially a musical instrument, nowadays it is.
      I like to call the shakuhachi an acoustic synthesizer for that reason. haha. :)
      In Japan they have called it the instrument of the ten thousand sounds.
      Sounds like a synth !
      Our modern day, western, equal temperament, 12 tone, octave based, exponential pitch perception based, A=440 Hz, way of playing music is just one of many ways you can play/'make' music.
      Or another viewpoint is that of synesthesia.
      I associate certain frequencies with certain colors.
      Music is like a canvas/palette to me, with higher notes being actually higher up on the painting and echoey & reverberating sounds extending inward the canvas like a 3D painting. Certain purer sounds with less overtones like a simple sine wave are more rounded while more complex sounds tend to look more squiggly and spikey.
      I love synthesizer music, especially from the 80's. I'm not surprised myself with all the different kinds of timbres and layers that make the pallette full of colors and different kinds of strokes (like a paint brush) and squiggles.
      And so on...
      Of course this is associative, what's usually referred to as 'true' synesthesia is actually seeing sounds or actually feeling sounds or actually tasting words, etc.
      So in other words, I'm probably not what they clinically describe as a synesthete. It't something that grows with me and didn't come out of the blue or has always been there, hence associative. And it's not always there in my mind. Higher quality sound does rend to help.
      With closed eyes it becomes a bit clearer as well though.
      Most people actually tend to describe music and sounds in general in synesthetic ways, like 'warm', 'hollow', 'huge', 'in your face', 'pumping', 'muddy', etc.
      In short, your brain turns the noise coming out of 2 channels (or 1 or more then 2 when surround) into defined instruments because you learned to associate certain noise with a certain image.
      When you hear a guitar, you're also seeing it, thinking about it.
      When an alien hears that same guitar, he/she/it doesn't hear a guitar, it hears noise. (or their own instruments if they happen to also have musical traditions, if they can hear sound waves in the first place that is, maybe they see microwaves and taste sound waves like a human synesthete, maybe they're not even carbon based...)
      Sound is just a vibration of molecules, usually air, after all. YOUR BRAIN TURNS THAT SOUND INTO DEFINED INSTRUMENTS AND MAKES YOU FEEL THINGS
      * To further clarify. How can you hear more then 2 instruments in a live band setting, when you only have 2 ears?
      The vinyl is just a way to cause the vibration. The vinyl literally contains an imprint of the refraction and compression of material (the stylus, arm, speaker cone and then the air, although the mechanical vibration from the arm first becomes an electrical voltage before hitting the - pre- amplifier, then a vibration again when the speaker cone moves and vibrates the air with it).
      In other words, the vinyl contains like an image of the sound wave in some sense. For stereo records it contains 2 images.

      Now this is my personal explanation. So I hope I make sense and don't spread misinformation. Personally I wouldn't know how this would work otherwise. This is just how vibrations tend to work. The vinyl contains an imprint of the sound. The amplification and speakers bring it into the air around us. Our brain makes the music.

      They use a lathe (a record cutter) to cut the groove on a special master. A lathe is reversed phonograph. From the master disk four copies are made to get the strong master metal negative, one for each side, with is then pressed onto a vinyl cake (A doughnut sized hot bloob of vinyl) with great pressure. Viola! A flat vinyl record

      Not really. The fact that one sound waves sounds like a guitar and another sounds like Lionel Richie has nothing to do with vinyl records and everything to do with the waveform. Vinyl, being an analogue medium simply stores the waveform 'as is' in the grooves of the record.

    This is a great video about "Stereo" records. You should do one about "Mono" and "Quad". The Quadrophonic system (very short lived) was quite complicated. Not only did the needle (stylus) move side to side, but up and down. The effect was amazing. Many artists actually recorded completely different versions of their albums for the Quad releases. The whole system was an early production of "Surround Sound" If you ever get a chance to hear one, it's quite a thrill. Unfortunately there were too many bugs in the format, and it just died away. There were also "Quad 8-tracks" which used 4 tracks instead of 2 for the recording, so instead of 4 playing positions, there were only 2. These sounded great in a car, and had your ears spinning around the passenger compartment. Again a short lived format.

      The stylus moves horizontally and vertically in all stereo records. That's how the stereo signal is formed: each channel is encoded in a diagonal (and the lateral movement produces a sum of both signals, and that's why you can play a stereo record in a mono player and vice versa). Quadrophonic records used supersonic signals to carry the additional information that allows the separation between front and back. That's why those records demanded special equipment to be played.

    I've just finished a rewatch of the final episode of the anime Dr. Stone, in which they create a rudimentary record player from stone age materials, and I was left with wanting to understand the base principle of how it works more clearly, so I ended up on this video. I've got to say, I don't think I could find anything that's easier to understand than this; you've really explained in simple terms and simple illustrations, and it made it so easy to understand. I can now go to bed having learned yet another cool thing, thanks to you! ^^

    I understand how the grooves in the record translate to sound but I don’t understand how each groove is able to capture multiple different overlapping tones at the same time such as vocals, bass, and guitar that are being played simultaneously

    • @jussy1287
      @jussy1287 4 месяца назад

      If you are confused: Just imagine the grooves on a vinyl record as a soundwave, because it is basically a soundwave cutted into the record. And a soundwave contains alreade all the sounds, for example the beat, the melody, the instruments, the vocal at the same time. Also the needle goes left right and up and down, left right is one channel, up down is the another

    A technical correction. In a stereo cartridge the moving element, in this case a moving magnet, is at the focal point of a 90 degree triangle where adjacent and opposite lines are made up of two sensing coils. Movement in the left track will cause the moving element to move toward and away from the left coil thus changing the magnetic flux coil and causing an induced electric current in it. As it is moving to and fro vis a vis the left coil it must then be moving accross the right coil. However, such movement will not alter the magnetic flux in the right sensor coil and therefore no current will be induced into it. For this to work as faithfully as possible, the moving element must be positioned exactly at the focal point of the two sensors. This is one of the reasons why tracking force is so important. Too light ot too heavy and the moving element will be out of position.

    I never really thought about it, but music is pretty scientific. You have to experiment with things, and eventually you find a thing that sounds good, and you try to understand how to make more sounds that sound good and then you need a way to share these sounds with others and somehow along the way they discovered the harmonic nature of sound.

    @chnlnine 2 года назад

    Hello there! Great video thanks for that! I just wanted to mention one thing: as far as I understood, with a stereo signal the stylus is bouncing up and down and left and right. That's actually w I came across your video in y research. It's a 3 dimensional movement. If you think about it, if it was only moving left and right how could that be a 2 channel transference? Clearly I'm not certain about this but it's something I've been contemplating & the up and down while also moving left and right makes sense to me.

    You missed an important point about the phono stage (pre-amp), this must also perform a frequency correction called RIAA equalisation. Vinyl is recorded with a bass suppression, RIAA boosts this back on reply. This is important, many people new to vinyl need to understand that a phono pre-amp or phono stage must be used.

    For those still wondering how the sound gets produced, realize that all sound is simply a vibration. When the needle vibrates on the record grooves, the "sound" is simply the speakers translating the vibrations into what we perceive as music.

    Personally, I would chose a turntable with as few 'add-ond' as possible. So pre-amps, USB connectiors, forward and reverse modes etc are just wasted on me. I prefer for my money to be spent on what a turntable must do as well as possible - spin vinyls spot on the required speed, perfectly level and with no rumbly noises together with a tonearm that gives minimum resistance to movement and whicih will allow the cartridge to track acccurately accross the disk
