Pea Hicks Audio Recovery Service
Do you have any old recordings of family members rattling on about the good old days on an old cardboard record? Or what about an audio letter your grandpa sent to your grandma on a piece of steel wire? Or a reel-to-reel tape of your brother's garage band from the 60s? If you don't have access to the right equipment to play back and archive these recordings, I can help! Mail me whatever you have and I'll perform some digital "audio forensics" on it to get it sounding as clean and intelligible as possible, and then deliver the result to you in whichever format you prefer, including CD.

Here are the audio formats I can currently process:

  • Disc Records (cardboard, aluminum, vinyl- maximum 12" diameter, any speed)
  • Wire Spools
  • Reel-to-Reel Tapes
  • Cassettes
  • 8-Track Tapes
  • 2-Track "Playtapes"
  • VHS and Beta Videotapes (audio track only- I cannot process video)
  • ADAT
  • Coming soon: Dictabelts and Edison Voicewriter Discs

Here are the audio formats I can currently deliver to you:

  • Audio CD
  • Cassette
  • Any computer-based audio format (ie .mp3, RealAudio, .wav, .aif, etc), deliverable via the internet or on a CD-ROM
  • DAT
  • ADAT
  • Reel-to-Reel tape
  • VHS or Beta Videotape

I charge a fee of $25 per 1/2 hour of recorded material (with a minimum charge of $25 for material lasting less than 1/2 hour), plus shipping and handling if applicable. This fee includes your first complete copy onto your chosen delivery medium. Additional copies are $15 per individual CD, cassette, etc. I can accept Visa/MC via PayPal or personal check/money order. Your original source media will be returned to you along with the final restored recording.

Please
for more information.

Oh, and have no fear! I give you my 100% guarantee that your recordings will not be used for any other purpose!!
