Label: Harlequin HQ3011
Recorded: December 1942-June 1943
Lineage: 78s>FLAC
Processing: Playback Ariston Transcription table, SME Arm with Shure V15 cartridge
Audio processed through NAD moving magnet phono adaptor and digitised with an Edirol R09-HR recorder.
Editing: Sound Forge to remove sub-audio rumble etc, manual de-clicking and re-leveling.
Adobe Audition to take noise print and remove surface noise in two passes.
Sound Forge to handle the lead in / lead out and inter-track fades plus remove the worst of the
extended 78 RPM originated clicks...
 (Analogue filters used before the days of digital editing remove the high amplitude content but leave behind a series of extended "rings" which are far more noticable to the ear)
These clicks have needed a lot of time to remove, hence I have only removed the real offensive ones
leaving quite a few smaller ones as they are, I would like you to enjoy this music, but close your eyes and imagine you are listening to some 78 RPM recordings with all their problems.
