FAQ
About noise reduction. The best noise reduction is no noise reduction. High quality tapes and records will require very little noise reduction. However, our media may not be optimum. We will use as much noise reduction and equalization as is required- no more. We strive to record as little noise as possible during the transfer process - minimizing the amount of digital processing. Please discuss noise reduction with us if it is a concern.
