Pop scratch filter...

Hi,

I am trying to convert a very large pile of 12 inch vinyl LP records to
MP3 but they are very scratched from years of use.

Does anyone know where I can get a schematic to build a pop/scratch
filter that will filter this out, or where I could buy/order one for
less than (US)$30.00?

I used to have a schematic for one that was in an electronic magazine
from the mid/late 1980's but the parts are no longer available.



Thanks,

-Landon

If you get a pro version of Nero, it has an electronic version of the
filters.

Look for the Nero Wave Editor : See Declicker & Noise Reduction. There are
other enhancement tools too.

General purpose audio lab.
It has click detection and removal.
And an awful lot of other things.
And it is free

Thanks for the replies...

I tried Groove Mechanic, it is small and simple and seemed to do an ok
job and removing the pops and clicks from a 44 year old record, I can
still hear little tiny clicks in the background even with the setting
set as high as it will go. But I am a musician (among other things) I
don't know if a non-musician would hear them or not.

But that is not my reasoning for not using it, it is Shareware and was
not advertised as such when I downloaded it, it has a 15 day trial
period and has to be registered from Canada for $40.

I am going to try Audacity and see how it does.



Thanks again,

-Landon
