tiens,
mijn gedachtengang ivm het grotere gat bij 7" was dan toch niet zo juist:
heb ff gegoegeld en kom op volgende sites:
www.straightdope.com/classics/a1_258b.html
www.history-of-rock.com/record_formats.htm
www.edge.ca/ongoinghistory/sp_recorded_music.cfm
leuk materiaal voor de mensen die geïnteresseerd zijn
als je het niet helemaal wil lezen, ff een belangrijk deel ivm de grote gaten in 7”:
…The company that introduced the LP record in 1948 was CBS; their rival was RCA. When the LP was ready, CBS chairman William Paley offered to share the technology with RCA. But the chief executive at RCA-a guy named David Sarnoff-would have none of it. The great sound of the LP embarrassed him, so he ordered his engineers to come up with something better.
Sarnoff didn't believe in putting songs together on one piece of vinyl. He liked individual songs on each side, just like the old 78. That's why (in early 1949), RCA released their answer to the LP. Code name: "Madame X." The seven-inch single that played at 45 rpm. And instead of a nice small hole in the centre, it had this giant thing...
Ever wonder about that? Why do 45s have such a big hole? Because RCA also made turntables. They wanted to control the future development of turntables and, in the process, eradicate the LP. With a large hole, you couldn't play a 45 on the same turntable as a 33 and a third LP. If you chose the seven-inch, you had to buy an RCA turntable.
"The big hole was apparently supposed to make the two types of records even more incompatible."…
dus gewoon omwille van commerciële activiteiten zitten we nu nog steeds met het grote gat in de 7” en het kleine in de LP’s…
is natuurlijk wel
;D
