Magnetic-Striping “Azimuth-Plateau” Effect on Frequency-Response of 16mm and 8mm Film: An Engineering Survey

Walter Bach

The history of 16mm and 8mm sound-on-film is given briefly as an introduction. Qualitative and quantitative techniques for examining the cross-section “azimuth-plateau” of magnetic-striping on 16mm and 8mm film are presented in detail. The azimuth-plateau is described and related to record and reproduce characteristics. The possible value to be found in standardization of the cross-section profile azimuth-plateau of magnetic-striping is discussed.
