Sound Recorder and Editor Description

Designed to digitize sound recordings of music cassette tapes, vinyl LPs, or videos

All you need is a multimedia Windows PC with a CD burner and CD burning software, and with PolderbitS audio processing software you can transfer vinyl records to cd. Move all of your old recordings onto your PC by converting them into digital sound files.

The PolderbitS Sound Recorder and Editor can also be used for additional sound recording and editing tasks like recording for example streaming Internet audio, meetings and interviews, editing sound files created with other software, or converting WAV sound files to MP3 and vice versa.

The Sound Recorder:free audio recording software

With the Sound Recorder you can digitize recordings to your computer’s hard disk, creating standard digital sound files.

Everything is under control within one easy-to-use window:

Note: Depending on your chosen display preferences in Windows, this window might look somewhat different on your computer.

* Select the sound source of the sound card.
* Select the desired recording sound quality.
* Set the recording volume before and during recording.
* Maximum possible recording time is displayed, which is dependent on the amount of available hard disk space.
* Start a recording automatically at any given day and time, for any duration, with the Recording timer.

The Sound Editor:free audio editing software

With the Sound Editor you can easily edit a recording.
Everything is under control from within one easy-to-use window:

The Sound Editor
Note: Depending on your chosen display preferences in Windows, this window might look somewhat different on your computer.

* Edit new files recorded with the Sound Recorder, or open and edit existing WAV and mp3 files.
* Automatically or manually split up recordings, like a full recording of one LP side into multiple tracks.
* Trim the start and end of each track – cut out white noise and save space.
* Each track can be faded in or out at the desired point, allowing you to neatly separate tracks that run over into each other, like a live recording with applause, or even shorten a song that’s too long.
* Cut out fragments of sound from within the middle of a track.
* Listen to the result of your editing before saving it to disk.
* Recordings can be saved to disk as a standard WAV or mp3 sound file, with your choice of desired sound quality.

And filters to improve the sound quality of your recordings.
The Editor has an "Advanced" button that enlarges the Editor window and offers 3 filters;

* A Click and Crackle filter for cleaning vinyl records
* A Noise filter for cassette tape recordings
* An Equalizer to enhance the sound quality for all recordings

All available filters can be switched on and off independently and act immediately (or in "real-time") on your recording. At any time you can switch between the original recording and the results of the filters so you can quickly compare the sound.

Improve the sound quality of your recordings

The PolderbitS Sound Recorder and Editor includes a number of filters that help improve the overall sound quality of your recordings. The Editor has an "Advanced" button that enlarges the Editor window and offers 3 filters;

* A Click and Crackle filter for cleaning vinyl records
* A Noise filter for cassette tape recordings
* An Equalizer to enhance the sound quality for all recordings

All available filters can be switched on and off independently and act immediately (or in "real-time") on your recording. At any time you can switch between the original recording and the results of the filters so you can quickly compare the sound quality.

Click and Crackle filter

The Click & Crackle filter removes disturbances typical in Vinyl recordings. Crackle is the result of wear of the stylus and/or vinyl record, and is audible as short high-pitch sounds. Clicks are the result of a scratch in a vinyl record and are audible as plops. Clicks and Crackle replace the original sound, hence this sound is permanently damaged. As a result the original sound can never be 100% restored, not even with a filter. What the filter can do is reduce the sound effect of clicks and crackle as much as possible. The general idea is to set the sensitivity such that the filtered result sounds a lot better than the damaged recording.

Click & Crackle Filter

The crackle and click filters can be switched on and off independently. A single slider adjusts the sensitivity level for both filters. The click filter removes the clicks from your recording and there is an optional indicator that shows removed clicks in a red color in the editor wave view window.

Noise filter

The Noise filter removes background noise (also known as "white noise") that is typical in a tape or cassette recording. It can also be used to reduce noise in any other kind of recording. You can hear results immediately and a single slider adjusts the sensitivity level.

Noise Filter

Equalizer

The 10-band real-time equalizer enhances the sound quality for all recordings.

Equalizer

The 10 sliders on the right allow you to adjust the volume of the entire frequency range from Bass (left-most slider) to Treble (right-most slider). The two left-most sliders, or single slider in case of a mono recording, allow you to increase or reduce the master volume of the entire recording. The equalizer frequency range is automatically selected, depending on the quality of the recording.

All sliders can easily be reset to their neutral positions. The Editor remembers the settings of the equalizer sliders and sliders in all other filters between edit sessions.

Playback & saving your results

All filters are combined in a single interface. A "Traffic light" shows you exactly what is playing now and you can quickly compare the filtered results with the original recording.

The wave view graphically shows the effect of the filters (what you see is what you hear) and a detailed zoom option is added for the left and right channel to see what exact changes your filter settings made to your recording.

Wave view detail

The "real-time" action of the Editor requires some processing power of a PC. Some PC’s are slower so we added an adjustable response time depending on the speed and load of your PC. This means that the filters in the editor also work on slower PC’s.

You can save the result of your filtering to disk at any time. The resulting sound file can be played back in any other player or burnt on CD.
