Audio Digitization & Archival Transfer

Infidel Studios can digitize audio from a wide variety of analogue and legacy digital sources.

Our engineers have worked on digitization programs in some of the major Commonwealth Government audio archives. All work is done to the internationally recognised audio archiving digitization standard – TC004.

All analogue audio is digitized with Prism ADA-8 converters. Prisms are one of the the few converters used by the major audio collecting and archiving agencies around the world and one of the best A-D converters made.

 

Analogue formats we can digitize include:

• All formats of mono and stereo 1/4″ reel to reel tape – 15/16ips quarter track up to 30 ips two track stereo. Full track, half track and quarter track
• Cassettes.
• Vinyl records, including 78s.
• 2″  16 track tape
• 1/2″  16 track tape

 

Digital formats we can transfer include:

• DAT cassette tapes,
• DA-8 cassette tapes
• ADAT cassette tapes (with prior arrangement)

 

For more details about the equipment we use, please refer to the Gear List.

Please feel free to ask about other formats you may have. We have plenty of old and esoteric machines “out the back” and access to many others. If we don’t have the machines on hand to digitize your material we should be able to locate the appropriate machine and in good condition.

We can supply digital copies in many different formats. A high quality archival 24bit/96kHz Broadcast Wav file (BWF), and reference / listening Audio CDs, MP3s or any other format that suits your needs.
