And some that were issued in '93 did not get another remastered reissue. Some missing albums on CD that were skipped over 1993. Then in 2005 another Apple reissue campaign. At that time a few got UK issues only, and some Apple albums did not get a CD reissue at all in 1993, but most that got a CD were US, UK or EU, and Japan pressings. 1993 came a big reissue campaign of the Apple albums. Maybe one Badfinger LP got a 1978 reissue in Aust or Germany and that was it. For 25 years the LPs were almost all OOP. Not sure if you follow that group or their catalog of album on their Apple label but it's an interesting story. I was doing an album tonight to 24/96kHz capture. But as long as the grooves are not worn out, and the inner grooves do not have distortion, and ticks and clicks are the only real issue with the LP, then I'm fine with moving forward with the ticky LP as long as everything else is fine with it. So it I think an LP needs some bass or reduced treble I'd be more inclined to do the touch up in analog before digital capture.Īnd yes, having really good vinyl to work with is helpful. I just bought an analog EQ, the Loki+ model which is getting notices as one of the most transparent EQs out there. In fact I do not use any digital EQ or any digital treatments other than CR. It is nice when one can do the edit and have it appear there never were any commercials there.Ĭlick to expand.Yes I am pretty minimalist in my approach to digital capture of vinyl. King Biscuit and BBC shows need the commercials removed at those points as well. Sometimes it blends perfectly with a good careful crossfade at that point. Like a live album with applause at end of a side and applause at beginning of next side. So a good video editor is more accurate for that purpose. Crossfades imo need to be looked at visually, and adjusted in real-time and played back in real-time without having to render. All crossfades are done in Vegas which is a video editor that can handle audio just fine. I've not used any other pop or tick removal sw. If one if going to do only a single pass then reverse would be able to get and catch more ticks, as a reverse reading of a file makes pop and tick noises stand out against everything more. But usually, I do get more cleanliness with that second pass. I try and see if I can get away with no second pass in forward. I moved my setting up to 16 as a standard. Very sad news, but he leaves a legendary piece of software for vinyl transfer process. Someone emailed the developer with questions about the software, Brian Davies emailed back that he is ill with no time to work further on it, and does not expect to recover. My SQ copy of WYWH really freaked out CR on that track.įeel free to pm me if you would like to ask about other tips or settings. LPs with loud horns like Chicago, TJB, and LPs with synth like Kraftwerk or parts of Pink Floyd like "Welcome to the Machine" generally cause CR to see and repair tons of ticks that are not there. There are two types of recordings that flag false positive ticks and clicks, these should not be treated with CR, or maybe but only in the worst circumstances. No crackle repair checked, and normal settings, "simple" checked. I can tell it's low because sometimes a tick or click can have made it past this low setting. Then listen to the treated tracks and if you had a particularly bad tick and click ridden LP, go for another pass in forward (reverse box unchecked).ġ4 I feel is a good and rather low setting and unlikely to do any damage to the fidelity at all. I'd like to give you some setting tips that I have found useful after nearly 8 years and thousands of LPs transferred to digital but in 16/44.1 and the 24/96kHz digitally captured vinyl.ĭo a first pass in reverse (check box reverse) But glad you did get the Andy Williams LP sounding rather good and clean in the end. A bunch of suggestions on other software, and then no tips on settings in CR. You didn't get many useful replies to your original post. Only hiss and rumble can be reduced by available software, although there is research into the repair of some types of non-linear distortion.ĬlickRepair finds and repairs clicks and. Global degradation takes many forms, particularly hiss, rumble, and distortion due to non-linearity in the play-back equipment. Neither can be physically removed from the record, although there are methods for cleaning records quite thoroughly, and even playing them back 'wet'. The origin is usually scratches and/or dust particles. Localised degradation is typically in the form of clicks, ticks, and crackle. Noise problems fall into two classes, localised and global. It is possible to operate automatically, or to intervene manually as required. It is not a filter it searches the file sample-by-sample, and only changes those identified as being suspect. ClickRepair finds and repairs clicks and crackle in audio files obtained by capturing vinyl and shellac (78) records to digital CD format.
