1985-86 Hauptmikrofon-Vergleich IRT+VDT, Martin Wöhr, Bruno Nellessen, Gerhard Spikofski


The following sound source is from a pairwise comparison of subjective evaluation experiments in 1985-1986 "Hauptmikrofonverfahren". In November 2023, I contacted the VDT office to find out more about this project and was introduced to Martin Wöhr. He sent me the sound sources. Afterward, I made the sound sources available for comparison with a mouse click. This means that we can listen to them and study orchestral recordings. I am grateful for their kindness and respect them as pioneers and innovators who advanced the art of sound music for radio and media.
