Abstracts:

Rewriting in the digital form on modern computer information carriers of audiorecords being stored on Edison wax cylinders is the only way of their conservation and becoming a possibility of their analysis and processing. The technology of rewriting should provide both full information transfer and conservation of audiorecords on wax cylinders. A developed interference optomechanical method provides high-quality nondestructive sound reproduction from phonograph cylinders. The form of presenting an instrumental signal, which is a record of the sound track profile, allows to perform effectively the processing (in the first place clearing from noise) of reproduced signal. The results of sound reproduction from phonograph cylinders from different collections are presented.



The edition of audiorecords reproduced from phonograph cylinders is expedient to carry out in multimedia presentation giving the most full information about performers and place of carrying out recordings.
