Affordable World Class Audio Restoration is done for $20.00
This is the best way we have found how to convert LP to CD with audio
restoration. We use a large arsenal of world class applications and
hardware.
The results are astonishing. The following lists the process and the
tools we use to restore your audio with the Level 1 treatment:
STEP 1:
Your LP's, 78's, tapes, and 45's condition is checked for
restorability and then catalogued and staged for restoration. You will
be
notified if major flaws are found and to what degree this will affect
the restoration. A detailed cost breakdown will
also be
provided for you before any work is started. Payment
is due at this time. Restorations are
on a First-Come, First-Served basis.
STEP 2:
If your LP's, 78's, audio tapes, and 45's pass the restorability
analysis, or we
have conferred with you about your damaged media and the total cost
has been agreed upon, your vinyl is then
cleaned using a VPI HW-17 record cleaning machine. We use all high-end
stereo equipment. For playing LP'S and 45's a Bang and Olufsen Beogram
8000
turntable utilizing a Sound-Smith line contact diamond stylus is used.
For 78's, a Rek-O-Kut CVS 16 restoration deck, a Stanton 6 stylus kit,
and a Rek-O-Kut re-equalizer is used. An Audiolab
8000Q preamp, Bryston 3BST, Monster 850i interconnect cables, Luxman
phonostage, and a Delta Audio PCI sound card round out the high-end
equipment. Converting cassettes to CD utilizes the
same hi-fi equipment and are played through a Luxman KX-102 cassette
deck.
STEP 3:
24
bit 96khz convert lp to cd transfer with restoration starts: LP'S
and 45's are recorded to the computer hard drive; Next, the extremely
large clicks and scratches are repaired using TC Electronic Powercore
Restoration Suite's De-scratch plug in.
STEP 4:
Clicks and pops will be repaired using either Algorithmix ScratchFree
Pro, Waves Restoration Bundle's X-Click and/or Powercore Restoration's
de-click. We then recheck again for any clicks or pops. At this point,
only a few hollow pops or ghost pops (artifacts) remain
that Sonic Foundry's noise reduction 2.0 usually repairs.
STEP 5:
The sound file is manually de-crackled using the "younglove method"
which utilizes Powercore's decrackle plug-in or
Algorithmix ScratchFree Pro. This removes the extremely small clicks
with little or no degradation to the sound file. (Crackle can be
thought of as the sound produced when you crush dry leaves.)
STEP 6:
The sound file is now de-noised of broadband noise using either:
Algorithmix Noise Free Pro, Powercore Restoration Suite's denoise,
Waves
X-Noise, Arboretum Systems Ionizer, or Arboretum systems Raygun Pro.
These are used in very low settings.
STEP 7:
De-hum is performed using Algorithmix reNOVAtor, Waves X-Hum
and/or arboretum systems Ionizer. This ends the 24 bit 96.0KHz convert
lp to cd processing.
STEP 8:
Your sound file is converted to the 16 bit 44.1KHz CD rate, split into
separate tracks, and burned onto an
archival Silver-Silver CD. An
upgrade to a hub printable Taiyo Yuden Water shield CD, or a
hub Printable 24k Tru-Gold CD is available. Your newly
created CD will then be shipped to you in a paper sleeve.
