jan 1, 1877 - Phonograph
Description:
Thomas Edison
Shortly after Cros found that he could convert the recording back into hearable sound, Thomas Edison announced his Phonograph, which recorded sound waves by indenting them into a sheet of tinfoil so that they could be played back immediately which relegated Cros’s less direct method to unimportance.
