But did you know that those tubes were garden hoses with a speaker at one end and a microphone at the other? The hose’s length was calculated at one foot per 1ms of desired delay. As you can imagine, it did not sound good at all. Today, radio broadcasters can take advantage of sophisticated digital technologies for audio delay, as well as for shrinking and stretching program material. In this post, we’ll take a look at some of the historical highlights and where persistence and innovation have gotten us today.

Some of the best examples of this were the professional cassette recorders manufactured by Studer Revox. Lurking in the recesses of the attic recently we found not one, but two Studer A710 MKIIs. We'll examine this machine, and tear down the transport to see what made it so exceptional.

For Rich Hardy, a contract engineer in Tulsa, Oklahoma, a recent project came via inheritance. “Another contract engineer had designed a six-console Axia build out, but he passed away before construction began, so I inherited the project. I didn't know much about Axia or Livewire, so I started reading up on it.” Hardy liked what he read, and soon plans were being finalized.
