Audio Restoration

Restoration & Transferring

In addition to our full-service recording studio, Commodore offers world-class, Grammy-nominated audio restoration. Vinyl Records, 78s, wax cylinders, cassette/reel tapes, and even “iPad” recordings in need of enhancement, can all benefit from the efforts of an experienced restoration engineer. Have your precious heirloom recordings transferred to CD or MP3 files for future generations to enjoy; with the same care and quality as the many internationally-released projects we have worked on.
