"I am extremely delighted with my new CD. Several of the songs on the LP were never made available on a CD, but there was one song in particular I remembered and wanted to hear again. I wasn’t certain about the technical details when offered a choice of sound quality, so I left it to your team of experts. I considered an LP to CD transfer ..."

I have a 1/2 inch 8-track reel-to-reel master tape (6 songs) that I would like to have converted to a stereo audio CD. Can you do it?

In other words: mixing down 6 songs from 8-track master to stereo. There are complications associated with mixing down an unknown multi-track master.

  1. Track layout is unknown to us (we would have to generate a track layout). Which may change from song to song.
  2. Relative levels will have to be determined for tracks, as to mix down into a “pleasing” manner. This may change from song to song.
  3. A “pleasing” mix may be hard to guess without the client listening in.

A much more practical solution is to use our RAW Audio Transfers service (24/96 and 16/44 digitizing service). With this service, we will transfer all 8 tracks perfectly synched as raw audio data files in WAV, AIFF, FLAC or Broadcast Wave Format. Each track (1 through 8) on the tape becomes a soundfile (1 through 8) on the data CD/DVD. You will then be able to import the sound files in your editing program and do the mixing and sound processing locally.
