Wave Corrector Users

I can't find another post on this topic, so here goes.

I always listen with earphones to a corrected file looking for missed clicks and corrections that need attention. The ones that most need improvement are those which have over corrected and cause an effect like a tape drop-out. All such a correction usually needs is to contract its width a tad. Occasionally the effect seems to be caused by inaccurate placement and deleting it and re-inserting at the apex of the click sorts it out.

On many discs the most time spent is dealing with over corrected clicks. Is there an adjustment I can make to reduce the occurrence of them?

Hello James

If you look in Auto-Scan Options and click the Advanced button, you can set the Correction Width to Narrow. This should overcome the problem, although you may end up with a similar number of under-corrected clicks.

It's difficult for the program to estimate the severity of every click - hence the problem.

Good Luck

Many thanks, Derek.

Despite any deficiencies, Wave Corrector is the only program to use for seriously cleaning up recordings from LPs. I have tried several, including industry leading and expensive applications. They all suffer from clumsiness in getting around the file and pin-pointing errors.

I am steadily making my way through my collection of 200+ LPs and the results have been outstanding. It is just a matter of patience to bring an LP up to near pristine condition. However, unless one is retired, like me, and don't have a price to put on the time spent it's not cost effective!

Thank you for providing the tool to bring my collection alive again.

Regards
James
