Audio Restoration at a Glance

The scope of audio restoration extends beyond the basic removal of tape hiss or background noise on prerecorded audio tracks. In many cases, advanced restoration processing is applied in order to enhance the clarity of the audio file.

Audio Processing in Sound Restoration

In general, volume management is required on all restoration projects; this may involve either normalisation of the audio track or dynamic processing which increases the perceivable volume level of the entire track.

In addition, spectral editing, pop and click reduction, advanced equalisation, harmonic excitation and stereo widening are typically performed, as needed.
