Re: Restoration of old recordings and Other Stuff

Two Utilities I have found helpful:
- CD Spin Doctor seems to have been specially made for repairing the sound from old vinyl records. It was part of Easy CD Creator 4, but was no longer included in version 5.0.

- CoolEdit 2000 is a wonderful Sound file editor by Syntrillium Software. It is not inexpensive, $69 for the regular edition, and $250~ for the full Pro edition. It takes all sort of plug-ins, and cleaning up old recordings is one of their specialties. It seems to be the paragon of editing software out ther.

For me SpinDoctor does about 75% of what I would want form CoolEdit, and really fits my needs given that the TrunTable, PickUp cartridge, and even the Sound Card are often the weak links in the chain.

Completely aside now...
I new a Norbert Thonnard while I was in the 4th through 7th Grades, in Elementary School. It was an American School for ExPats in Barranquilla, Colombia. We were good friends and messed around with rockets and all sort of science related stuff. Would you be the same person? If so drop me a quick email response. I would enjoy cathcing up.
