Media Digitization and restoration

Media Digitization and Restoration

Here at Dubway we offer restoration, digitization, and archiving of many older sources of audio, from various sizes of analog reel to reel tapes from the ‘50s all the way through to the '90s, multiple formats of digital tapes, and vinyl records. The noise present on much of this original media can be a bother for modern listening or distribution of these recordings, but we can reduce this noise through application of digital noise filtration after the transfer. In addition to audio, we also offer professional video digitization for common video formats from VHS to UMatic to MiniDV.

We can transfer your recordings from almost any media: vinyl, cassette, reel to reel tape (2" 24 track, 1/2" 8 track or 2 track, 1/4" 4 track or 2 track), microcassette, MiniDisc, DAT, DA88, 16 or 20 bit ADAT, CD, all digital file formats (wav, MP3, aiff), Logic Audio projects, or ProTools projects.

Tape Baking & Audio Restoration

Bring us your old analog recordings and we will bring them back to life! As you may know, certain analog tapes start 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 render your tapes playable again. We then can make a digital or analog transfer of the original material, using best-practices noise reduction technologies, thus preserving your work for future generations to hear!
