Equipment:
VPI HW-17F Vacuum Record Cleaner, Technics SL 1210 MKII T/T, Rega RB 250 Tonearm (Re-wired), Ortofon Rondo Blue M/C Cartridge, Cambridge Audio AZUR640P M/C Stage, M-Audio Profire 610 A/D, Adobe audition 3.0
Method:
Clean records on Vpi, rip (PCM@96/32), remove inaudible subsonic (0Hz to 17Hz ~ 0db, with sloped filter ‘Scientific’ from 17Hz to 20Hz). Manual and carefully targeted automatic de-clicking in Adobe Audition using custom scripts and presets. I make sure this doesn’t damage natural clicks. Occasional use of noise masking techniques such as ‘footprint’ sampling the groove noise and fading it to mono during track changes, etc. Normalize whole sides to 100% (After deciding if the sides are cut the same), Split tracks, FLAC.
