First Recording of sound ever made: 1860. First Recording: Au Clair de la Lune: Link The first device that could record actual [|sounds] as they passed through the air (but could not play them back—the purpose was only visual study) was the [|phonautograph], patented in 1857 by Parisian inventor [|Édouard-Léon Scott de Martinville]. The earliest known recordings of the human voice are phonautograph recordings, called "phonautograms", made in 1857. They consist of sheets of paper with sound-wave-modulated white lines created by a vibrating stylus that cut through a coating of soot as the paper was passed under it. An 1860 phonautogram of [|Au Clair de la Lune], a French folk song, was played back as sound for the first time in 2008 by scanning it and using software to convert the undulating line, which graphically encoded the sound, into a corresponding digital audio file.
