Audio better than my profs online lecture on zoom

[@pocok5000]

i think it's safe to assume that MIT used professional equipment for this and your prof used a $20 webcam.

[@emin3798]

definitely correct

[@krakenmetzger]

I don't know if I've ever seen a more 70s looking man.

[@ramanujavinayak90]

Oppenheim has been my favourite author on signal processing. Its great to view his lectures on net... thanks MIT...

[@ardyfalaki5623]

I remember when in 1983, as a graduate student in UMass, I spent so many hours watching the Betamax versions of these lectures at the library. Great lectures!

[@ConsciousnessIsMyGod]

Thumbs up if you think his mustache is the sinc function

[@meerabharti3091]

Yeah

[@mmmkhan3804]

Yes and the best thing i am replying you in 2020

[@sohambhatia3997]

I read your comment at the start and now I can not unsee it in the whole lecture.

[@stephenl7797]

I feel like I'm being abducted by aliens at the beginning

[@adawood133]

that was funny :)

[@dyannhadgez7578]

Dude, I was thinking exactly that.

[@roshanantony64]

Holy phuck😂

[@isalpha]

sinusoidal mustache, eye-catching tie and great charisma. Dr. Oppenheim is the best

[@godwhyisthistaken]

wow he really has good articulation, this is actually interesting, amazing 1975

[@arithmeticum]

Thanks to that Intro I'll never sleep again :(

[@karthikg.l.4330]

The ever best Introduction on Digital Signal Processing!!!!

[@TheAmericanEagle100]

Great Video, it is nice to see how after more than forty years, it is still applicable to our time. A time where where teaching prowess superseded ego and theatrical skills. Great job, Dr. Oppenheim!

[@daqo98]

We owe him a lot.

[@perfectmtshali9652]

thanks for providing best videos MIT is the best.

[@yubakrarai]

Thank you for sharing such a high quality course. Knowledge should be open to everyone.

[@AutumnRainWish]

Alan V. Oppenheim is the God of DSP! I wish I had found this earlier...

[@DownTownDowns]

He *literally* wrote the book on it

[@roshanantony64]

Ah, a (wo)man of culture as well

[@danieloljirafufar2739]

Thank you so much for such a neat and simple to understand video. My former DSP teacher should watch this video!!!

[@dspembedded]

Thanks for these videos. Alan V. Oppenheim's book is one of the best DSP books ever.

[@Aemilindore]

these are still golden!

[@83Tubes]

I love the computer music intro- you can hear it trace through the over-tone series!

[@quicktech9677]

The sound quality is pretty impressive, considering it was 1975.

[@Ector521]

+quicktech They recorded it in MIT. That says something ))

[@Captain_Rhodes]

they did have microphones in 1975. in fact many of the microphones used today were around in 1975. the sm58 is used today by most performers and is from the 1960's. The idea that all modern technology is superior is (of course) nonsense.

probably oppenheim processed these signals himself

[@edgarcalochcampos1930]

@ lmao

[@yatinkhurana22]

or maybe they used DSP on a DSP lecture audio.

[@animeshdas6866]

He is, hands down, THE BEST PROF IN THE SIGNAL PROCESSING UNIVERSE. I looked at his Signals and Systems lectures as well.

[@patarlavinay2500]

Sunilkumar

[@Digiphex]

He was born in 1937. The intro sounds like he was into modular synthesis.

[@AshutoshMishra-qg1eq]

I cannot thank MIT enough for providing these valuable lectures. Thank you so much.

[@ivermektin6874]

I like how this was just mostly theory in the 70s without any real systems doing this yet now today it underpins everything we use.

[@help1982]

il mitico Oppenheim del libro di elaborazione numerica dei segnali!!!

[@user-nm8ht3cp9n]

you've been fight with time and didn't get old...

[@stingingwords1054]

wow what an introduction... 😍 just wow💛🧡

[@kaushanim]

I'm definitely going to find it useful and interesting... It's Oppenheim Himself!

[@erikadesouza9285]

Muito bom! Genial.

[@davidmaiolo]

Same name, same idea today. Pretty cool.

[@wristocrat]

I will watch this entire series today

[@johannespralle8899]

Thank you MIT. I found a DSP Book from Mr Oppenheim in our Library/

[@johnb6723]

1975 - that was the year of the freak snowstorm in June that stopped a cricket match at Buxton in Derbyshire.

[@SergioGarcia-kh2rf]

In fact this was pretty advanced technology for those years

[@arifproklamasi8120]

Legend

[@luftwaffe25]

It's 2012 and still being the base!!! from discrete time signal proccesing courses around the world XD all our reference to study are here =)

[@MisterJie31]

Wow, thanks for this information :D

[@glavgad]

wow thank you very much, i am studying Signals and System by Alans Oppenheim book and here he is! :D

[@siddharthrajput2425]

we still doing it 9 years later

[@yufancao4369]

Excellent articulation! And he really loves Vesti la giubba lol🤣

[@muze3k]

14:20 .. wow can't believe HDR effect was cutting edge technology back in 1975 where as now its called shitty instagram effect.

[@snowsearch]

will there be any update for the 1975 version?

[@anujadesilva8426]

2021/09/26 im from sri lanka 🇱🇰 thank u this valuable course

[@Alexander5R]

So we had digital images before digital music?

[@alteracbarry]

Or a sinc stache?

[@publiux]

Ron Burgundy?

[@SudeepJoshi22]

Shame that even today's college courses can't match the course which was recorded back in 1975!

[@MrGW2fanboy]

Nice tie.

[@saileshshiwakoti2160]

Hello sir, I am a 2023 student

[@jibeneyto91]

In 1975 they had just discovered colour and had to saturate everything to the maximum lol

[@surabhi.lakahmikumar4192]

thank you for your Lecture sir I got PhD in BITS Pilani by listening to your lecture sir

[@supremeleader5516]

That's impressive

[@shaojunma4737]

OMG, HE is Prof. Alan V. Oppenheim , the one wrote the $200+ textbook.

[@clawskitt-3841]

The one and only

[@johnroshan]

@TreacleMary You're being too nice.

[@Ensign_Cthulhu]

@SuperGZK It's very seventies.

[@johnrogers1251]

7:00 - Maybe it's just me, but where the reel-to-reel recording is played back to show the unenhanced/enhanced recording, I can't hear a difference at all. Anybody else feel the same way?

[@roygalaasen]

Listening with ear plugs, there is definitely a difference. I perceive it as the first being muffled, the other more open, crisper, but also more noticeable noise. Edit: at 9:40 ish they removed the noise as well.

[@hostlangr]

@@roygalaasen, vielleicht doch zu einem HNO-Arzt gehen, um dein Gehör überprüfen zu lassen. Der Unterschied ist sehr deutlich!

[@themastershadowx]

the birth of acapella

[@Er.Sunil.Pedgaonkar]

Tell something about DSC: Digital Signal Controller

[@nikolaiedward479]

Is there a never version of this course?

[@dyannhadgez7578]

Why would you want a newer version? This proff is da best.

[@SuperGZK]

@jsm666 True. But, it's painful even for the seventies. Brings back bad high school memories. ;) Anyway, I love the attire and instrumentation - " ...displayed on a computer ray tube ..." Thank goodness the mathematics is just as relevant today as ever. Everything else (sin intro music) are an awesome, awesome bonus.

[@83Tubes]

@lowmax64 i don't think it's annoying; it's trippy.

[@dlikescheese]

yes i too agree the music at the beginning is soooo annoying!

[@PradeepMathew]

Kids... 9:05 is called 'Fast Forward"

[@shanusingh3814]

Omg it’s 1975 😱

[@ayyashC]

I'm starting out to self-learn DSP, is this resource outdated now ?

[@BrAiNmUsIcCoOp]

Says 1975 right in the title

[@chaitanyajadhav5941]

Who else is here in August 2019 ??

[@taufeeqkhan2629]

Me hu lavde yha kya kar rha hai

[@RequiemForABuckeye]

I'm here in 1975

[@adarshnet2]

This camera is so 'awesome' when compared to 1975 standards. Why didn't you record Walter Lewin's lectures with the same camera? His 1999 classes are so...low quality :/

[@jamalan7417]

praise to the internet

[@Imhotep25296]

Ron Burgundy!

[@ahmedads]

@zxc210188 mmm it is not at the same sequence as you read his books .

[@EternallyRound]

SUM(hair, mustache, uber-tie, shirt, jacket) = 1975

[@navigator171]

This opening song scares me...

[@bigblockelectra]

I think they use his textbook at the university of washington

[@jonminosilva]

Vim pelo Coach de Fracassos.

[@heine0085]

Hi it's Professor from the tv series Friends :D

[@tpuemats]

the intro music really started bugging me out...

[@freddykrueger5503]

7:00 that man needs an ipod

[@Ramix09]

Must be crazy to witness such amount of progress in your area of expertise, the guy is still alive so he probably had an iPod at some point in time

[@AlexanderRamsdell]

dat tie...

[@alsy0055]

dat mustache...

[@TreacleMary]

Not too sure about that intro music...

[@2lua2lua]

dat hair...

[@randythamrin5976]

Is this video still relatable.?

[@clawskitt-3841]

Yes

[@Deepak_3860]

1975 😱

[@TheAtech7]

dat MP3 player XD

[@saicharanmarrivada5077]

15:16 :)

[@ftreal]

lold

[@martinsolorzano9071]

bro speaks like a textbook 💀

[@SuperGZK]

The intro music is painfully annoying.

[@jaranschannel]

This lecture is kinda old, am I right??

[@roygalaasen]

10 years older by now!
