LPs, Reel-To-Reel
Tape, & Cassettes Backed Up to CD
If you have old audio recordings
on audio cassettes or LP, as well as reel-to-reel audio tapes
that you can no longer play because you no longer own that type
of equipment, let Foster Video create backup copies on CDs. We
can also capture the audio from the following videotape formats:
vhs, s-vhs, vhs-c, s-vhs-c, 8mm, HI8, D8, miniDV. If your audio
is longer than 80 minutes (the capacity of 700 MB disc) we'll
continue the audio on another disc. Prices are for one source,
audio cassettes, LP, or reel-to-reel audio tapes. We can also
divide the audio into separate tracts. We also can combine different
audio sources into one CD, or removed or rearrange part of the
audio, or any combination or scenarios.
Three-step Process
We use a three-step process,
capturing, editing, and burning to disc. The audio is captured
at a higher than CD quality (48,000Hz) and the audio is then
divided into the appropriate tracks. At this point the tracks
are imported into an authoring program or the files are recompressed
to the CD standard (41,000Hz sampling rate). Prices may vary
depending on the level of service we provide on a given transfer
project. Prices include transfer, 700MB 80 minute CD-R disc,
and black on-disc printing, slimline CD case (color printing
is extra)
Note: we recommend
that you only backup tapes and records that are not commercially
available on CD.
New releases of old records albums usually have been digitally
remastered and are of better quality than the original
