The cleaning of a record won't necessarily remove all the artifacts that
some people don't want with vinyl. I never use 'digital clean-up' methods
myself, in fact I usually do absolutely nothing with a transcription -
what doesn't bother me with a record isn't going to bother me with the
'digitised' version!!

Well I've had 20 years of the "luxury" of CDs! When I started getting my
old LPs out of the loft a few months back, I found it quite a shock
listening to them in terms of surface noise alone - even the pristine ones.


I might take a loud pop out here and there, but always 'by hand' in Sound
Forge!

Indeed - I do all my clean-ups by hand - automated methods never work
satisfactorily.

That's scary!
