ääninauhojen
Ääninauhojen, often translated as sound tape or audio tape, refers to a magnetic tape medium used for recording and playing back audio signals. These tapes consist of a thin plastic film coated with a magnetic material. When audio is recorded, sound waves are converted into electrical signals, which are then used to magnetize the coating on the tape in varying patterns. This pattern of magnetization represents the original sound. To play back the audio, a tape recorder's playback head detects these magnetic variations, converting them back into electrical signals that are then amplified and reproduced as sound through a speaker.
The most common formats for ääninauhojen include cassette tapes and reel-to-reel tapes. Cassette tapes, introduced in
