want to save these memories?

all your old tapes.

analogue to digital conversion. vinyl, cassette, vhs and minidisc, transferred to clean files you can keep, share and back up. vhs from £11 a tape.

Who this is for

Old tapes.
New copies.

A box of family cassettes, a demo tape from a band that does not exist any more, a vinyl collection worth having on your phone, a home video on VHS, a MiniDisc nobody has played in years. If you have something worth saving, it can be transferred here, on our own playback equipment, to a digital file you can actually use.

Once it is a file, it can also be mixed, cleaned up or mastered like anything else that comes through the studio.

Vinyl
Cleaned and played back, captured at full resolution.
Cassette
Played back and captured, hiss reduced where needed.
VHS
Video and audio transferred to a digital file. From £11 a tape, up to about £20 depending on length and condition.
MiniDisc
Transferred to digital. The format is nearly extinct, so ask if you are unsure what you have.

how it works

Cassette deck, the tape leaving the shell as a waveform
VHS recorder, the tape becoming video frames
Reel-to-reel, the tape becoming data

cassette, vhs, reel-to-reel. the machine plays it once more, the file keeps it. photos cut into the file they become.
