In addition to video production services, I also do some specialized audio work transfering vintage disc recordings (sorry, no cylinders). I have a Diapason Archive 20 turntable that can play 15-135 rpm continuously variable and record diameters up to 20" (yes they were made that large), custom made styli of various sizes, proper equalisation to maintain the integrity of the audio signal, and digital noise reduction.

If you have:

• historical 78 rpm records of any speed and size up to 20"
• 16" radio transcriptions (they look like LPs on steroids)
• early motion picture soundtrack discs
• lacquers (coated discs sometimes called acetates)
• just plain home recordings of family members and events (including open reels)

that you would like to have transfered to cassette or CD, please contact me  for information on audio transfer services.

A Pathe record - from the begining of the 20th century and 20" in diameter (yes they made them that big). They revolved at 120 RPM and weighed about 6 pounds!(Record courtesy of Kurt Nauck, photo by Milt Erikson)
