Audio Tape Restoration Services Recommendations

Dear Mike! Thank you so much for the amazing restoration that you did with
the music that I recorded so many years ago and never had the chance to
hear! The memories come pouring in as you can imagine and I cannot thank
you enough!”
Karen C / Concert Pianist

I just wanted to let you know the recordings arrived yesterday,  I wanted to thank you for exceeding any expectations I had with the conditions of the cassette I sent.  They are wonderful!!  I am beyond pleased! Thank you so much. I’m eternally grateful for your wonderful work restoring and remastering these priceless (to me!) recordings.  We can’t thank you enough!
Donna B / Restoration Client West Virginia

Hi Mike, The CDs arrived yesterday and I listened to them today. You did another great job with the transfer and restoration. They sound better than I thought possible! I also want to thank you for numbering the reels in the correct order for me as it makes it much easier to catalog the CDs and tapes!
Kenneth G / Restoration Client New Jersey

“I am very pleased with the restoration that you did for me. I sent the
tape to you in pieces! I thought that you would say that it couldn’t be
saved. It was sure worth it as I am now able to hear my grandmother’s, and
father that are no longer with us. You should feel very proud of what you do,
you reunited my ancestors
through the restoration of my cassette tape.”

Audio Tape Restoration Services Recommendations

“The CDs arrived and we are so very impressed with everything about them. Your resurrection of this material contained on reel to reel tapes that were deteriorating and more than 40 years old is totally amazing and appreciated. Your constant communication with us throughout the process made sure we understood each step and what we could expect along the way. We had not heard these performances before and what you have restored means a great deal to us all. Certainly, when we encounter others with similar needs, we will recommend you enthusiastically”
John L / Music Department Chair, The Dwight-Englewood School

“I just listened last night to the Chistmas 1966 recordings of my late father’s and late brother’s voices. I have been the custodian of that tape for over 50 years, wondering if it had anything worthwhile on it. It did and you made it possible. It gave me a great sense of closure as I am sure it did to my niece. Many thanks for your successful efforts.”
T W Choate / Colonel USMC, Retired

“Hello, Mike. Just a short note to tell you I received the CDs and thumb drive promptly and  intact. I’ve listened to both media. You did excellently in the restoration! The memories of that 1971 Valentine’s Day organ concert came flooding back as I listened to the recording. The re-connection to that past was overwhelming. I cried like a baby. Thank you again for your dedication and professionalism to help us old folks to be able to shout: “Thanks for the memories!””
Eugene H / Restoration Client & Professional Organist

Mike, Last week I received back from you the restored recordings of our family’s 1981 puppet shows and had a chance to listen to them over the weekend. All I can say is I am still in disbelief… and am extremely grateful. You performed nothing short of a miracle. When I tried to play the original 40+ year-old cassette tape a few weeks ago, it was completely distorted and basically inaudible, but somehow you managed to completely restore the sound to what is now a recording that is better than it ever was, since you were also able to remove so much of the tape background noise. This successful restoration is everything and more than I could have ever hoped for and means more to me than I can adequately express. Thank you!”Audio Tape Restoration Services: tape-restoration.com
Richard D / Restoration Client Ohio

“I just had the most fantastic weekend listening to the audio! You have not only made me very happy, crying tears of joy at hearing both my English grandfather and my American grandfather for the very first time! But you have made my closest and dearest cousins very happy with the audio of their father. So finding these and being able to listen to them again is better than finding gold. I just heard songs I haven’t heard sung in 50 years!!!! And my cousins children cried hearing their grandfather talk & sing & play the guitar for the very time in their 30 years of life! Again, I want to thank you for helping me preserve my family’s memories! ”
Diane B / Restoration Client California

“I listened to your outstanding transfers last evening. It brought back many memories of my youth hearing this in the background at my boyhood home. Dad’s been gone nearly a half a century, but your efforts brought him back to life last night, thank you.”
Raymond S / Restoration Client Wisconsin

“Hello! I received my repaired tape and Flash drive today, and I wanted to thank you again for the great work you’ve done. The two interview voices on the tape are my mother and her aunt, who passed away nearly 20 years ago. Being able to hear her aunt’s voice again after so long has made my mother very happy, and I really appreciate it.”
John D / Restoration Client Virginia

Mike, I want to thank you again for the work you did on our cassettes. Your skills made such a difference. The people who have listened to the restored tracks have been blown away by how they sound. Today I am releasing them for public consumption on DVD, CD, USB, and online streaming.
