The first 78 recording discÊcame out in 1898. This was the speed that was chosen for the phonograph as the earlier music recorders had speeds that started at 60 rpm.Ê
In July 1877, while developing his telephone transmitter, Thomas Edison conceived the idea of recording and playing back telephone messages. After experimenting with a telephone "diaphragm having an embossing point & held against paraffin paper moving rapidly," he found that the sound "vibrations are indented nicely" and concluded "there's no doubt that I shall be able to store up & reproduce automatically at any future time the human voice perfectly." Edison periodically returned to this idea, and by the end of November, he had developed a basic design. The first phonograph consisted of grooved cylinder mounted on a long shaft with a screw pitch of ten threads per inch and turned by a hand crank. Instead of paraffined paper, Edison used a piece of tin foil wrapped around the cylinder as a recording surface. The first phonograph had separate recording and playback mechanisms, but later designs combined them into a single unit.
The Victorian music player, often associated with the early mechanical music devices like the music box and the phonograph, can be attributed to several inventors. The phonograph was invented by Thomas Edison in 1877, which allowed for the recording and playback of sound. However, music boxes, which were popular in the Victorian era, had been developed earlier in the 18th century, with significant contributions from various craftsmen. These innovations collectively shaped the landscape of music playback during the Victorian period.
He invented the phonograph record and record player.
The phonograph, invented by Thomas Edison in 1877, was crucial in establishing the model music industry. It allowed for the recording and playback of sound, enabling music to be captured and distributed widely for the first time. This invention paved the way for the commercialization of music, leading to the development of record labels and the modern music industry as we know it today.

Thomas Edison
Thomas Edison, in 1877 built the first phonograph that permitted playback of a recorded sound. In the following years, several other people contributed to improvement of the phonograph. Here is a link to an article on the phonograph: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonograph
"The first practical sound recording and reproduction device was the mechanical phonograph cylinder, invented by Thomas Edison in 1877 and patented in 1878" - from the wikipedia page on sound recording
Thomas Edison
Thomas Edison is credited with inventing the process for the first sound recording using tin-wrapped cylinders that could be played on a phonograph. This invention, known as the phonograph, revolutionized the way sound could be recorded and played back.
No, the phonograph had not yet been invented.
Thomas Edison is credited with the invention of the phonograph. Edison invented this device in 1877 after several other inventors had failed to create a machine that could reproduce sound.
