    Excellent restoration!

    Sounds great. Did you re-equalize for the different curve? I find that a cut at about 1K and a slight bump up from 2K-5K often can help with 50s mono recordings that have an "auditorium" sound.

      @ly776 Yes, I’d been using RIAA which sounded pretty dark. I used the AES cut up top here which helped a bit. I should caveat, for the last month or two I’ve been trying to get a modified laser turntable working. The “raw” output I had the manufacturer install behaves neither like a constant velocity or amplitude pickup. I still haven’t quite figured out how to lay a precise curve over what I’m seeing, hence all the tests and video pulls while I see what works better or worse. So, AESish : )

      I forgot to mention. These are sounding nicer mainly because I started using Neil Antin’s cleaning method with HCl + Triton X instead of Citrinox for that step. The laser is highly sensitive to residues even on new records and this removes them better than anything I’d tried. It’s rather dangerous though, so use caution anybody trying it. For vinyl only, of course.

      @@1fattyfatman Does the laser account for the super low vinyl hiss? I work with a pretty simple turntable and various cartridges, and process/equalize mostly in Audacity. My cleaning is also pretty simple with an old vacuum record cleaner.

      @@ly776 You’ll notice the mono records are a lot more quiet. I use a plug-in called Tru mid/side from RJ studios. It allows you to more carefully remove / retain signal from each groove wall when summing a stereo transfer. It can introduce artifacts though, and so takes some tinkering. This actually has no noise reduction aside from that, click, and rumble removal - somewhat amazingly. I’ve caved and bought two tests discs to solve the mystery of the laser curve. They’ve arrived today!! Yay!

      @@1fattyfatman I have also gone to focusing mainly on clicks and crackles. I have an ancient Magix program - that only runs on a cranky PC (I do everything on Apple otherwise.) It has a much better control on clicks and crackle than I have been able to get in audacity. But I guess with a regular cartridge I'm always going to have some hiss. I have about 20 hiss curves on Magix that I've created - but sometimes there is no way to remove it without creating artifacts or flattening everything out. When that happens, I just treat it like a 78...and hope the listeners will tune it out!
