Test materials made on acetate shall be clearly marked with a usage date. 4.2 The film stock sha

11、ll be conditioned for 10 days at 20C f 3C (68F f 5.4“F) at a relative humidity of (50 f lo)% prior to recording. 4.3 The film shall be recorded and packaged within the temperature and humidity limits specified in 4.2.

14、roximately 30 seconds. 6.3 Pink noise The pink noise test signal used for this section shall have equal energy in equal logarithmic frequency intervals within the audio bandwidth. The lower limit shall correspond to the lower bandwidth of a 31.5 Hz-octave band filter of the ANSI class II type, and t

15、he upper limit to the upper bandwidth of a 16 kHz-octave band filter of the Page 2 of 4 pages RP 128-2002 ANSI class II type. (Test bandwidths must be within these limits). The level in each one-third octave band from 40 Hz to 12.5 kHz shall be the same within +- 1 dB. The pink noise signal shall be

16、 recorded so that there shall be a low statistical probability of the extreme peaks within the signal saturating the magnetic film. The peak level of the wide band pink noise spectrum shall be essentially equal to that of the corresponding frequency response test segments. The recorded pink noise sh

17、all have the characteristic specified in 6.5 and a duration of approximately 30 seconds. (The pink noise test may also be used for multitrack azimuth adjustment using an oscilloscope lissajous figure from the two outside prime tracks of multitrack equipment.) 6.4 Frequency response The 1000-Hz frequ

18、encies of this multifrequency section shall be recorded 6 dB below (92.50 nWb/m) the 185 nWb/m reference. The following test segment frequencies in hertz f 2% shall be sine waves recorded in the order given: 1000,31.5,40,63,125,250,500,1000,2000,4000,6300,8000,10 000,12 500,14 000,16 000,1000. 6.5 R

19、ecorded levels With a constant-amplitude sine-wave signal applied to the input of the recording system, the relative characteristic in effective values of the short circuit magnetic flux versus frequency shall decrease with increasing frequency proportionately to the impedance of a parallel combinat

20、ion of a capacitance and a resistance having a time constant of z = 35 ps and 31 80 p. (A time constant is a shorthand notation, such as illustrated by a frequency response curve, having a shape which results from a time constant of one or more microseconds. This is a convenient way of defining a re

21、sponse curve and is never intended as a recommended electrical circuit.) The characteristic defined above is obtained by the following calculation: where La is the recorded relative short circuit magnetic flux level in decibels, f is-the frequency in hertz for which Lo is computed, TI is a time cons

22、tant of 31 80 ps, zh is a time constant of 35 ps, and Co is a constant with a value of 0.1 94 calculated to make Lo = O at the reference frequency of 1000 Hz. The approximate numerical values are given in table 1. 6.6 Flux level variation The film flux level at each frequency from 31.5 Hz through 16

23、 kHz shall be within k 0.5 dB of the value specified in 6.5. (See table 1 .) 6.7 Duration The duration of frequency response test segments shall be approximately 10 seconds, except for the 16-kHz tone which shall be approximately 30 seconds for azimuth and highifrequency equalization adjustments.

26、he short circuit flux on the test film shall be determined by means of the calibrated short-gap ferromagnetic core reproducer technique. This technique is described in AES 7. 7.2 Level The signal level specified in 3.4 shall be measured with an rms voltmeter calibrated in decibels with an accuracy o

NOTE - It has been shown that a straight 35 ps curve should be used for maximum use of the magnetic medium. It is recognized, however, that it is necessary forthe immediate future to continueto add 31 80 ps because some theater equipment is unable to compensate for the low end. Page 4 of 4 pages
