transfer / Archiving Dubway has been charged with restoring,
digitizing, and archiving many older sources of audio, from analog
reel to reel mono tapes from the '60's, 2" multi-track tapes from
the '70's, 80's, and 90's, and vinyl records. Often, the noise on
the original media can be reduced through application of digital noise
filtration after the transfer. In addition, we've transferred many
digital audio tapes directly into audio files for easier access with
current software platforms. We can transfer your music to and from almost any media: vinyl, cassette, CD, DA88, 16 or 20 bit ADAT, 2" 24 track, 1/2" 8 track or 2 track, 1/4" 4 track or 2 track, all digital file formats (wav, SDII, MP3, aiff), Digital Performer, Logic Audio, or ProTools. Tape Baking & Restoration Bring us your old analog recordings and we will bring them back to life! As some of you may know, analog tape starts to deteriorate after about 10 years. The binder loosens up and literally sheds off the tape, destroying your recording. Through a process called 'tape baking' we can make your tapes temporarily playable again. We then can make a digital or analog transfer of the original material, thus preserving your work for future generations to hear! Video Editing & Transfer Dubway's video-editing suite is fully equipped with Final Cut Pro 4, and has the capability to digitize from Beta SP, DV Cam, DVD and VHS formats. Audio post mixing, sweetening, and layback onto Beta SP or DV Cam are available, as is dubbing from Beta, DVD, DV Cam to VHS. An efficient staff of working professionals understand the complexities of video, as well as the synchronization of audio to video, layback, and video capturing, and all are dedicated to achieving the highest quality product. In addition, Dubway's expertise in the realm of audio post ensures that all audio aspects of any video production will be attended to. Mixing, ADR, and sound design are all available at Dubway Studios, as well as access to musicians and composers with film and television experience. Home Consultation Dubway was started by musicians for musicians. The studio's longevity is testimony to its attention to the changing needs of the modern musician. One of those changes is the advent of the home based recording studio. Now, Dubway engineers can work with you on-site to help you "get your room right." Some advice on software interfacing, computer hook-up, file management, or back-up methods can vastly enhance your studio's friendliness and efficiency. An audio tip regarding mic technique, speaker placement, or mixing may significantly improve the sound of your productions. From how to get a great vocal at home to how to best prepare your tracks for interfacing with the professional studio environment, a little pro advice can go a long way. We have been working with home studios for several years as they have become more and more a legitimate force in audio production. Dubway has welcomed the opportunity to avail the home based studio of our acoustic rooms, microphones, processing gear, and, most of all, our staff. Now, this new service takes that opportunity just one step further. Familiar with the issues surrounding compatibility and transfer of audio media between different systems, we can also guarantee a seamless transition between your studio and ours. If you want killer live drums, but can't do them at home, a couple of hours at Dubway may be all you need. Or perhaps you've got great tracks, but want to get that extra hi fi quality on the lead vocal. Or you've recorded it all, and just need some expertise and high end gear for a finished mix, or mastering of your own mixes. Our staff can help you to get it right. Pro advice on-site. Give us a call and see how spending a little on the front end can save you a whole lot on the back end. —Take a look at the article in EQ
