Mastering and de-noising spec.

De-noising and sonic restoration are both techniques by which the essential or original sound you have produced can be enhanced, and redundant surface noise in your recording can be removed. There exists both a hardware and a software element to this process.

Here are some of the many facets of the sonic restoration operation used frequently by our mastering house:

Digital noise printing and reduction
Subtractive synthesis
Click removal
Pop removal
De-essing in preparation for radio play
De-hissing
Vinyl restoration
Hum removal
Machine noise removal
Multi-band dynamics
Compression/limiting
Digital enhancement of very poor sources such as audio cassette to produce high quality CD representation -
