Abstract
Professional recording calls for the finest possible equipment to preserve valuable and irreplaceable performances and events. Cost is usually a secondary consideration. Professional audio includes master recording, mixing-editing, broadcast recording, motion picture sound, and copying of recordings, sometimes on a large scale. Analog recording is perfect enough for most applications, but digital recording now can eliminate residual distortions and allows perfect copies when editing or rerecording.
