sound advice
Here are a couple great links to bookmark if you’ve ever thought of hooking up a turntable or cassette deck to a computer. First off, a good concise overview of the process at Macworld: digitize your cassettes and LPs. That article hits all the major points, with one glaring exception: cleaning up the pops, crackles, hissing, etc. I’ve used two different turntables and a variety of software tools in the past for recording and editing, but I’ve never found a good tool for cleanup. So I hit the comments link to point out the article misses this important component, and the first commenter has already jumped in to recommend ClickRepair. Based on the samples posted on their site, ClickRepair looks pretty impressive. If it works as well as advertised, I may have just found the missing link to get the ball rolling on a fairly large-scale digitization project of my vinyl archives.
ClickRepair 2.2 is the most stunning software (for my purpose) ever – thank you Prof.Davies !
I’ve been doing sound restoration work for 10 years now (Ukuthula Sound cc).
Since December 2007 ClickRepair (together with my trusted Cool Edit Pro) has produced such astonishing results, that all the previous work seems to have become redundant.
Super stuff !
