Sound-Effect Devices:
Many techniques for creating sound effects were pioneered in early phonograph recording studios and developed later in radio and the movies. Sound-effect devices used in Edison's recording studio include: (1) sleigh bells, (2) wood clacker, (3) tambourine, (4) tin pan noisemaker, (5) coconut shells for sounds imitating horses' hooves, (6) shoe sole on wood block for imitating slaps or footfalls. |
