[78-L] 78-L - broken disc, genuine catastrophe

[Iñigo Cubillo]

I've had good results with the tape system. Of course, you have to edit out the clicks at every turn afterwards with the software, but if the crack is clean and the record doesn't jump grooves, it can be done. The click appears as a high peak first, but it has echoes, so after the big one you must look for the two or three later immediate peaks too.  Best seen if you transfer the record with the silent parts at the beginning and the end, so you can study the shape and echoes of the break impulses on the needle.
