Some macs (at least one of my macs (imac or g5) had sound studio bundled on the install dvd . It has bunches of filters which should mitigate the noise. I have tried it once.

Paul,

I found CD Spin Doctor, a program that came free with Roxio's Toast, to be an excellent program for recording, and pre-treating, material from cassette and vinyl recordings, before recording to CD. Removed hiss and crackle very well wherever needed, at whatever level needed.


Hi All,
I'm hoping to take some compact cassette recordings I made of some interviews I did with my Grandmother for an oral history project back in 1987 and put them onto a CD for Mum for her 70th birthday in October. I want to have a go at removing some mechanical noise that made it on to the tape during the recording process.

I took a look at the Archives and the last discussion on this subject looks like it was back in 2003. I wondered if anyone had some more recent experience that they wanted to share. I have a tape deck hooked up to my eMac through the audio in connection. The results are ok using Garageband. I guess I'm after suggestions or recommendations on what sort of software might get the job done or if anyone would recommend a professional outfit who does this kind of work.

Thanks in advance.

Paul
