First of all (with a screw driver) you need to adjust the left and right side screws of the play-head in your tape player while the tape is playing until you hear the best quality sound. Once you hear it, that's when you know your play-head is in the same position as when it was first recorded in the original tape recorder. You might have to take your cassette door off to get to the playhead screws. There's normally adjustable tensions springs around those two screws in support of adjustments.
First you have to find tape noise frequencies and reduce them, then search the recording noise they are just different noises and reduce a little more, you can use two more noise reduction processes, one for voice de-noise and another just controlling noise in frequencies with tools like Waves WMS, all this processes should be subtle. Finally you can reduce artifacts sounds with eq, compress and final graphic eq to compensate, limiter and done, the final result is really good.
I know this video is old, but I’ve used that same recorder and it has way more noise than a better quality one. I suggest buying a good one for a better starting point
Thanks for the video. I just found this because I want to use some of my Cakewalk recordings from a CD from 2000 and put the music on a video. I would just plug my guitar into the PC and add affects after recording - there's hissing in some places and treble pop and clipping here and there. I had used Cakewalk to turn tapes into MP3s and Waves and it did alright, but I don't own any current software. I'm saving this video and will check out your channel.

Similarly, I have an old tape recording of my mom singing that I'm trying to clean up. Thanks for the tips!

Thanks!

Restoring one of my dad's old songwriting backing tracks from a casette. Thanks for this! I love Italian poetry btw.

Muchas gracias! gran tutorial!
On it is there a delete option for any audio??
Is there a way to do this with out a computer
Oh well... Thank you, but I can't find a place in the song where there is no sound going on... I try to fix tho.
Hi would you do this process for a recording I have ?
Please reach out rafartmusic.com/contact . The form was broken before, but it works now. Sorry about that.
what if there is no bit with pure noise........
He could have sampled that hum and it got rid of that too as well but nice job
You could do that in costfree Audacity, from Linux family.
hey,, great repair,, would this work with music?
Sure. It works for any audio
App link
I'm doing this with old band tapes.
$129.00 USD ...i died
Rx7 is on piratebay
What if I send you and audio for you to make it clear and I pay you .. would you be willing to do that?🤔
Hi. You can reach out directly on rafartmusic.com/contact
@@Rafartmusic great! I have sent it, thank you!
Wouldn't be better to use a gate?
Should have also removed the mains hum.
