This section contains most of what you will need to know to use our device at your home to easily and efficiently transfer music from your vinyl records (or cassettes) to our device (Affectionately known as "The Black Box"). We are also available to answer questions via email and have made a promise to our customers that we will get back to you within 24 hours with a response. When you order from us a complete copy of these instructions will also be included within the shipping box for "The Black Box" and it's accompanying hardware.
This section is included to help the customer at home clean their records before recording them at home using "The Black Box". Although our service always includes digitally cleaning the recordings, if noise can be prevented by physical cleanings, this will lead to a much better final MP3 recording. In the past (and sometimes currently) our company has taken vinyl records provided by customers, cleaned them thoroughly and then recorded the music to MP3 files using our external AD processing units which are connected to high-speed PC's. We have learned very effective ways to clean vinyl records safely over the years and present them here to assist you.
