Edison was the first recording engineer. To get enough energy to cut the acoustic records (cylinders or disks), his recording horns had huge openings and were also very long. When recording a vocalist with instrumental backup, he mounted the vocalist on a movable platform, and the engineer had some kind of electrical or hydraulic fadeer system to operate to move the vocalist to and from the opening of the horn.
