High Tech Equipment
The finest production equipment for the transfer, mastering and manufacturing of our cassettes and CDs is used. Each disc and cylinder is first cleaned to remove any artifacts that may produce extra surface noise or distortions. A custom made stylus is selected for that particular recording to provide the best transfer. This is selected based on the age, type of medium, and existing wear on the record.

Each record is correctly adjusted for correct pitch and playback speed.
The "78" r.p.m. record was not always recorded at 78 r.p.m. The speed adjustment varied from 76 to 90 r.p.m. This was dependant on the manufacturer of the disc and the year the disc was recorded. Cylinders were generally recorded at 160 r.p.m but this speed also varied.

A combination of advanced filtering using graphic, parametric and digital filters are used to provide the cleanest most natural sounding transfer of the vintage records.
After the recordings are mastered further editing is performed using advanced sound restoration software. Our time consuming transfer process has been adjusted, refined and perfected over the last 30 years.
