  • XDR (audio)

    XDR (eXtended Dynamic Range, also known as SDR (Super Dynamic Range)) is a quality-control and duplication process for the mass-production of pre-recorded audio cassettes. It is a process designed to provide higher quality audio on pre-recorded cassettes by checking the sound quality at all stages of the tape duplication process. In this way, the dynamic range of audio recorded on an XDR-duplicated cassette can be up to 13 decibels greater.

    History

    XDR was originally developed by Capitol Records-EMI of Canada in 1982 as "SDR" (Super Dynamic Range). Capitol in the USA then adopted the system for its cassette releases that same year, renaming it "XDR".

    Process

    The XDR/SDR process involves many steps, the most prominent being:

  • Duplication of the cassettes from a 1" wide master loop tape mounted in a loop bin duplicator (as opposed to standard cassette duplication using a 1/2" master loop tape), resulting in clearer high frequencies, greater bass response, and less noise.
  • Recording a short test toneburst at the beginning and end of the program material on the cassette, to detect for any loss of audio frequencies in the audio spectrum. The toneburst consists of 11 tones about 0.127 seconds in length (with 0.023 seconds of silence in-between each tone), of the following estimated sinewave tones:
    32Hz, 64Hz, 128Hz, 256Hz, 512Hz, 1000Hz, 2000Hz, 4000Hz, 8820Hz, 11,025Hz, 18,000Hz

    Ive Got You Under My Skin

    by: Seether

    I've got you under my skin
    I've got you deep in the heart of me
    So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
    I've got you under my skin
    I've tried so not to give in
    I said to myself this affair won't go so well
    But why should I try to resist when baby I know more
    than well
    I've got you under my skin
    I've got you under my skin
    And I've got you deep in the heart of me
    So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
    I've got you under my skin
    I'd sacrifice anything come what might
    For the sake of having you near
    In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
    And repeats, repeats in my ear
    Don't you know fool you can never win
    Use your mentality wake to reality
    But each time that I do
    Just the thought of you makes me stop before I begin
    'Cause I've got you under my skin
    I've got you under my skin
    I've got you deep in the heart of me
    So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
    'Cause I've got you under my skin
    oooohhhh
    ooohhh ooohhh
    oooohhhh
    ooohhh ooohhh
    I've got you under my skin
    I've got you deep in the heart of me
    So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
