The phonograph is a device invented in 1877 for the mechanised reproduction and tracking of sound. In its later forms it is also called a gramophone (as a trademark since 1887, as a generic name since c. 1900). The sound vibration waveforms are registered as equivalent physical deviations of a spiral groove imprinted, etched, incised, or impressed in to the surface of your revolving cylinder or disc, called a "record". To recreate the audio, the surface is similarly rotated while a playback stylus traces the groove and it is therefore vibrated because of it, very reproducing the documented audio faintly. In early acoustic phonographs, the stylus vibrated a diaphragm which produced sound waves that have been coupled to the open air through the flaring horn, or directly to the listener's ears through stethoscope-type earphones. In later electric phonographs (also known as record players (since 1940s) or, lately, turntables), the movements of the stylus are changed into an analogous electric signal by a transducer, then changed back into audio by a loudspeaker.

The phonograph was developed in 1877 by Thomas Edison. While other inventors possessed produced devices that may record may seem, Edison's phonograph was the first ever to have the ability to reproduce the noted audio. His phonograph formerly recorded sound onto a tinfoil sheet twisted around a rotating cylinder. A stylus giving an answer to sound vibrations produced an up and down or hill-and-dale groove in the foil. Alexander Graham Bell's Volta Laboratory made several improvements in the 1880s, like the use of wax-coated cardboard cylinders, and a cutting stylus that moved laterally in a "zig zag" groove about the record.

In the 1890s, Emile Berliner initiated the change from phonograph cylinders to level discs with a spiral groove running from the periphery to near to the center. Later advancements over time included adjustments to the turntable and its drive system, the stylus or needle, and the audio and equalization systems.

The disk phonograph record was the dominant audio taking format throughout the majority of the 20th century. From your mid-1980s on, phonograph use on a standard record player declined sharply as a result of rise of the cassette tape, compact disc and other digital saving formats. Data remain a well liked format for a few audiophiles and DJs. Vinyl records are used by some DJs and musicians in their concert performances still. Musicians continue to release their recordings on vinyl records. The initial recordings of music artists are occasionally re-issued on vinyl.

Using terminology is not homogeneous over the English-speaking world (see below). In more modern usage, the playback device is often called a "turntable", "record player", or "record changer". When used in conjunction with a mixing machine as part of a DJ setup, turntables tend to be called "decks".

The word phonograph ("sound writing") was derived from the Greek words ???? (phon?, "sound" or "voice") and ????? (graph?, "writing"). The similar related terms gramophone (from the Greek ?????? gramma "letter" and ???? ph?n? "voice") and graphophone have similar main meanings. The root base were already familiar from existing 19th-century words such as photograph ("light writing"), telegraph ("distant writing"), and cell phone ("distant sound"). The brand new term might have been influenced by the existing words phonographic and phonography, which described something of phonetic shorthand; in 1852 THE BRAND NEW York Times taken an ad for "Professor Webster's phonographic class", and in 1859 the New York State Teachers Connection tabled a action to "hire a phonographic recorder" to record its meetings.

Probably, any device used to record sound or reproduce registered audio could be called a kind of "phonograph", however in common practice the portrayed term has come to imply traditional solutions of sound documenting, relating audio-frequency modulations of the physical trace or groove.

In the later 19th and early on 20th ages, "Phonograph", "Gramophone", "Graphophone", "Zonophone" and so on were still brands specific to various makers of sometimes completely different (i.e. cylinder and disc) machines; so appreciable use was made of the common term "talking machine", in print especially. "Talking machine" had earlier been used to refer to complicated devices which produced a crude imitation of speech, by simulating the workings of the vocal cords, tongue, and lips - a potential way to obtain confusion both then and today.

In British British, "gramophone" may make reference to any sound-reproducing machine using disk records, that have been popularized and released in the united kingdom by the Gramophone Company. Originally, "gramophone" was a proprietary trademark of that company and any use of the name by competing makers of disc records was vigorously prosecuted in the courts, but in 1910 an English court decision decreed that it had turn into a generic term; it has been so used in the UK & most Commonwealth countries ever since. The word "phonograph" was usually restricted to machines which used cylinder records.

"Gramophone" generally described a wind-up machine. Following the benefits of the softer vinyl fabric files, 33 1/3-rpm LPs (long-playing records) and 45-rpm "single" or two-song details, and EPs (extended-play recordings), the common name became "record player" or "turntable". Often the home record player was part of a system that included a radio (radiogram) and, later, might also play audiotape cassettes. From about 1960, such a system began to certainly be a "hi-fi" (high-fidelity, monophonic) or a "stereo" (most systems being stereophonic by the mid-1960s).

In Australian British, "record player" was the word; "turntable" was a more specialized term; "gramophone" was restricted to the old mechanised (i.e., wind-up) players; and "phonograph" was used such as British English.
