JR, if there's a substantial response from the Kickstarter, maybe it would be sensible to engage a professional to do the transfer. There are specialists who do this, and the price isn't as high as you'd imagine.

 

Just as an example, this chap here does full service transfer including machine wet cleaning (you do know this LP is going to be in a pretty grim state if it's been unplayed for 20 years..) and transcription using EMT turntables (which are pretty much the best in the world). He's in Romford, just outside London, and can even collect valuable recordings personally. The charge for transfer is £10 per LP side

 

Just a thought..

Thank you - that's an excellent idea (and I am sure the guy who I asked to do this would agree). I will look into this further.

 

yeah it does seem like a good idea!

 

he'd better not do any messing about with the files though....there's lots of mention of declicking, dehiss and denoise

 

Oh I agree, yes - no processing thankyou - I'm sure that would be optional (he seems to do a lot of work with 78rpms and suchlike.

 

I have a friend with the exact same EMT turntable (obtained when the BBC were giving them away - they regurlarly sell now for £6K plus) - they really are superb and an object of jealousy and desire

 

The 'restoration' is standard procedure according to that page but I'm sure they'll do whatever you ask, especially if it means doing less work for the £ 40.

i pay my 16 dollar, wheres the fucking quid sign bastards!

I have a braindance page on fb, should I share the link now or should I wait for the time mentioned in the thread?

nvm, I leave it watmm-only for now.

I would wait if at all possible... toying with tweeting about it since word will undoubtedly get out (if not already).

Ah, what the hell - go ahead - the more the merrier, eh?

*goes off to tweet or twit or whatever these kids do these days*

heh... I already shared with a friend of mine :P

(a friend, no more, pls dont murder me)

Wait till the time spoilsports, I know that given that there's no limit to be reached that this is illogical, but it's quite fun seeing the numbers go up with just watmm money. The 'others' will have plenty of time to throw their monies at this.

edit: bahh even joy has caved.
