ruby - what a great find ! get yer turntable out (or get one secondhand). I kept my parents' LPs : The Dancing Years; The King and I.... They transcend any concept of naff.

jema - can you store your vinyl not in the party rooms, and make compilation tapes off the records for the party beforehand ? good fun, that.

No I am not going to turn them into plant pots! But I won't keep them all - we will have a big playing session this weekend and pick out what we want to keep - the rest will go to a charity shop to give them a fighting chance If anyone wants any in particular let me know - if it doesn't make our play list I could see about getting it to you.

Clickrepair is a program recently offered for shareware distribution ($25) by an Aussie maths prof. It tries to interpolate (fill in) the music behind each and every individual click. It doesn't filter the rest of the sound.
Music people have been raving about it. (Personally, I'm tone dumb...)
Its a Java program, and works for Mac and Windows, (not for Linux yet)
More here https://wwwmaths.anu.edu.au/~briand/sound/


After removing the clicks and pops, another program can get a clear run at removing the residual surface noise and hiss.
I've just been reading an audiophile's report on a Mac shareware program called Amadeus that seemingly does the job exceptionally well (and even better after ClickRepair has removed the clicks). Its $30, but you can use it for free on 15 different days.

So $55 and you can remaster your old vinyl to maybe better than new...
