Can Sonicraft transfer my tapes if they are [X inches wide], [X number of tracks], and [X noise reduction]?
“In a word: YES. We handle virtually every open-reel analog format up to 24 tracks, recorded at any speed, with any Dolby or dbx noise reduction system. If your tapes were originally synchronized with time code, we can also make synchronized transfers.”
在公司資料中查看I’m unsure of the exact format, speed, or noise reduction. Can you still help?
“Absolutely. We will evaluate your tapes, determine the correct configuration, and ensure proper playback alignment and decoding—no worries if the documentation is missing.”
在公司資料中查看What deliverables do I get once my tapes are transferred?
“We provide a digital mirror-image of your tape in Broadcast WAV files at the sample rate of your choice. Each track is captured as an individual file, making them fully compatible with popular DAWs (Pro Tools, Logic, Cubase, Nuendo, Reaper, and more).”
在公司資料中查看Why do tapes become sticky, squeal, or shed oxide?
“Certain tape formulations from the early ’70s onward can develop Sticky Shed Syndrome (SSS) due to binder breakdown. These tapes may stick to themselves or the tape path, causing squealing, speed fluctuations, and potential damage if played untreated.”
在公司資料中查看How does tape baking help?
“Baking temporarily re-stabilizes the tape, allowing it to be safely played without shedding or stretching. This process does not typically degrade audio quality, and we’ve successfully restored thousands of tapes using precise, time-tested protocols.”
