[LAU] Re: How to analyse and "optimise" a frequency spectrum? (digitising tapes)

Hi Fons, thanks for your helpful feedback, comments and suggestions. It seems that I am best served by polishing the recording manually after all. Well, it was just three tapes with radioplays, so it will only be six files to fix. And the fixing I intended to do was static, i.e. no automation as in DAW automation. By automated I meant having a program that would analyse the recording and suggest a few values for that static polishing process. It's more a question of personal comfort than creating files that are ready for public release. I couldn't do much about the level of the tape I used to digitise the tapes, since it is a USB tape deck. I can also only assume that it is in good health, being rarely used, well stored and of rather adequate quality. Thanks for all your pointers. I might search for the US vs. European EQ standards and see if those might already help in achieving a better sound. Othersie, it's the oldfashioned listen and tweak. :) Thanks again and best wishes, Jeanette -- * Website: http://juliencoder.de - for summer is a state of sound * Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMS4rfGrTwz8W7jhC1Jnv7g * Audiobombs: https://www.audiobombs.com/users/jeanette_c * GitHub: https://github.com/jeanette-c Don't care about money It doesn't give me half the thrill <3 (Britney Spears)
