It may sound funny, but if you have an LP you can't clean well and you can still hear some pops/clicks, and you rip each song individually and make a CD, the 2 second gap between wav's on your CD are really noticeable and annoying. Rip LP's in one big file per side then use markers to designate the tracks when you burn it to CD. ClickRepair is not a noise filter it searches for, and repairs, localized damage. This kind of intermittent noise is typically the result of damage due to scratches, dust specks, etc. I had an EMU 0404 and was able to rip 192/24.Ĥ. ClickRepair is an application for cleaning clicks and crackle from audio files produced by digitizing vinyl (LP) and shellac (78) records. Rip your vinyl as high quality as you can. Again, if the record was too bad for doing this, then I used ACL because it didn't matter at that point if I lost some highs.ģ. If the pop/click is too long, you'll notice it when you smooth the wav out and there's nothing else you can do. Zoom in on the spikes you see in the wave file and just flatten them out with the pen tool. I manually removed the pops and clicks using Sony Sound Forge. You don't want to have such a stream that you spray the needle off the record, just very lightly mist while the record is playing, otherwise if you wet the entire record, the alcohol may evaporate before the needles gets to that spot on the record.Ģ. Use a low percentage denatured alcohol/water solution and a fine mist spray bottle. Especially ones that were in bad shape and couldn't be cleaned well using conventional methods. but I played the vinyl wet while I was ripping it. You can compensate with EQ, but it doesn't sound the same to me.ġ. The pop/click removal process seems to do a broadband sweep of the high frequencies and you end up losing a lot of your highs.
The thing I didn't like about any of the plug's that I used is, they suck the life out of the rip. ACL just put's it all in a nice recording interface and makes it super easy to clean up the recording and burn the disc. There's very little difference between them all. It works just as well as any of the others I've used. There's one that comes with Sony Sound Forge 9. The best one I used was a stand alone program called Audio Cleaning Labs.
Please don't ask me for any samples, I lost everything in an HDD crash and don't want to talk about it, I get too emotional! LOL
