Preservation of Gamelan Melayu recordings through sound engineering

Sound or audio engineering is a branch of the engineering field which involves the process of recording sound and reproducing it by various means, as well as storing it so that it can be reproduced later. Known as sound or audio engineers, these trained professionals work in a variety of sound produ...
