Recording Studio Tech
⚠️ High pitched frequency warning! ⚠️ This frequency may trigger tinnitus.
This is the tedious work behind your favorite music that you rarely get to see. When i was an engineers apprentice, this was the sound that accompanied the start of every morning. In this video a studio apprentice is adjusting the calibration and alignment of the Studer A80 tape machine at Omega Recording Studio. The MRL Calibration Tape plays a 1khz frequency at 250nWb/m. The Weber is the unit of magnetic flux, or in layman’s terms, magnetic strength. It is an important measurement for getting signals on and off of magnetic tape (whether digital or analog). One Weber is much too large a unit to be relevant with tape recorders, so the nanoweber (one billionth of a Weber) is a standard unit of measurement. The recorded level of tape is expressed in nanowebers per meter of tape. Especially in analog recording, the signal level to tape is a critical component in the performance of the tape. Too high a level, and you get distortion  and lack of headroom, but with too low a level, your signal-to-noise is compromised. The proper recording level for tape depends a lot on the formulation of the tape and the electrical/magnetic characteristics of the recorder. Recorders are thus aligned using standard reference tapes containing tones at known levels rated in nanowebers per meter. Once the machine is calibrated to a reference, it becomes possible to optimize its levels for the particular formulation of tape desired through another alignment procedure. Recording to tape is just as much an artform as making the music itself.

horror sub-genres • analog horror
analog horror is commonly characterized by low-fidelity graphics, cryptic messages, and visual styles reminiscent of late 20th-century television and analog recordings. it is named "analog horror" because of its aesthetic incorporation of elements related to analog electronics, such as analog television and VHS, the latter being an analog method of recording video. analog horror could be regarded as a type of creepypasta.

I think horror podcasts should make cassette tapes of their shows.
Just the thought of pretending to put some "random" cassette into a seemingly old cassette player and listening to the horrors unfold is something I crave.

A guide to the Sudrain Infection - VHS tape
(Read the text below the video)
(Here it is! Apologies, this is my first time creating a full on video, so it's probably crap. You can pause to read stuff)
Elaborating on Stage 5; If you've seen the "blood coming out of Edward's whistle" scene from shed 17, the engine will bleed out of any hole, port and valve in its body, so imagine an engine whistling. Instead of steam, there will be gallons of blood coming out. It's really painful for the engine as they're developing blood circulation in their body.
If anyone wants me to explain any stages like...stage 6...lemme know ^w^

TWF4 SPOILERS!
Watched the premiere, loved most if not all of it. Started inking a Bon from the beginning while watching, but by the end I knew I had to add the new man behind the mask.
