The need to store sound waves has led to the development of various recording systems. One of these is the analogue recorder, which is still being used in some important recording studios today. Even though this recording system has undergone countless transformations over the years, its underlying principles have fundamentally remained the same, as have their use. These machines, have progressively evolved into digital technology, but it is nevertheless important to have a look at the way they work, since they have set principles that are still the reference for recording.
