    my grandad Frank "Felix" Trott on the clapper and walking n talking. Spent his entire life at EMI carrying on the work on Stereo, Radar, Television etc ( Chief Engineer, Commercial ) after giving up his place and hence not dying alongside Blumlein on the Halifax in 1942.

    I love inventions where people are clever enough to discover stuff and decades later I still don't understand it, even when it's explained.

    If you've ever watched a roadie testing the vocal microphones before a gig, you'll know that they rarely count higher than two. These guys are clearly waaay smarter.

    This is the year I was born, i he has been one of my idols. Was lucky enough to meet his two sons just before they sold the family hotel in St Ives in 2007. People should read his biography, there are two actually.

      Wait, so you're 92 years old? I can't imagine how it feels seeing the world evolve all the way from WWII and the great depression, only Radio instead of TV, to having the Internet and being able to leave comments on UA-cam videos.

    This is WAY better than "Revolution #9". That is was made in the same studio makes it BETTER!

    The white coats make it look really scientific.

      It WAS scientific. Blumlein was an engineering scientist.

      Almost 10 years have passed and yet this is still the best video on UA-cam so far

    You know about the mic to determine this stereo process but if we use daw it does not work. I know the left right and center are already there but your ear is a train you can feel it. And if you work in this sound field you must be concerned about that process.

    The balance is shifted somewhat to the right, but it is stereo!

      May be occurred during the digital conversion. I might be wrong.

    Ah, one do I say, one do I say, one do I say, one do I say then surely two should follow, two should follow, two should follow, two should follow.

      That is the point, you don't hear things purely through one ear, that would be unrealistic.

      Um.. this is NOT AT ALL mono.

      This was clearly before the digital era, otherwise they would have restarted at 1 after reaching 8.
