Do they know what the sources of the "gargling", and raspy distortions are?

Btw. on a recording, it seems to me that the man is not speaking "Barometer" repeatedly, but a female name, Sarah Weissmueller (Sa-Rah Weiss-Mueller). Edi Zubovic, Crikvenica, Croatia |

Thanks for posting the link! ---Jeff Avoid the word "recording": The phonautograph is the earliest known device for making sound waves viewable! It was never recording and playback device! Because the phonautogram tracing was an insubstantial two-dimensional line, direct physical playback was impossible in any case; see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonautograph http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89d...de_Martinville Cheers ebs |

news This story from First Sounds is very interesting. These researchers found a way to playback the first known recording. http://firstsounds.org/ What always intrigues me about these recordings is that inventor spent several years tweaking and improving the recording process - but with no means of playback! So how could he tell that a change was for the better or worse? Only by *looking* at the result. With today's tools for examining sound visually, it's easy to get too focused on what the work looks like instead of what it sounds like, so I think it's a little ironic that the first recordings were a purely visual medium.
