Sticky-shed: oxide coming off a 2-inch reel. We restored and transferred this tape successfully.

Here’s what we do with your tape.

  1. 1

    Check it

    We see whether it needs thermal processing or mold remediation. If it does, we have the equipment and the protocols to restore it for that once-in-a-lifetime transfer.

  2. 2

    Transfer it

    Your masters play on our Studer A827, into WAV files through Burl Mothership converters.

  3. 3

    Decode it

    If the tape used Dolby A, Dolby SR or dbx, we decode it, so you get both the encoded and the decoded files.

  4. 4

    Send it

    You get a link to download WAV files that open in any DAW.
