- Abstract
- The first part of this paper deals with the scoring facilities available at Columbia Pictures in 1935, and the modification of the scoring stage built in that year to allow for the recording of larger bands. The second part describes the conversion of a production stage of 110,000 cu ft into a scoring stage, the advantages connected with the use of convex wood splays in such an enclosure, and the construction of a vocalist's room to allow the separate and simultaneous recording of songs, orchestrations, and combined renditions of the two. A description of the electric circuits employed for mixing 3 tracks is included.
