Frequently Asked Questions:

Can you convert VHS video into DVD?

We are currently looking at the possibility of offering this service in the future, but as yet we have not tested how effectively this can be done. Please check our news page for the latest developments or get in touch to be notified of when this service will become available.

Can you convert other media - vinyl, reel-to-reel etc..?

Audio cassettes are easy to handle and reasonably safe to post, this is not true of vinyl. Also conversion of vinyl merits the use of higher quality turntables than we currently have access to. We do not currently have reel-to-reel equipment, but may consider it for the future. Let us know if you think this would be a service you could use.

Can you convert FOSTEX type four-track tapes?

It is possible for us to offer a service for these tapes, but this would involve our operators mixing and producing an end-result which may not exactly match your preferences. The cost for this service would need to be assessed on a case-by-case basis. Either produce your own mix onto cassette for us to convert or contact us to discuss your individual requirements.

Why can I only contact you via email?

Our preferred method of contact is email so that we can deal with correspondence at our convenience. If you are unable to contact us via email, you can text or ring 07523 521259 and leave an answerphone message (O2 mobile 'phone - charges vary according to your 'phone line supplier)

What are the differences between MP3 and M4P?

These are both compressed (lossy) file formats, M4P is used by Apple for it's iTunes software and Ipod player. For more information on this, visit our MP3 page

Will my iPod play MP3 files?

Yes, an iPod can play Mp3, but it's default file type (M4P) will ONLY play on iPod or in Itunes on your PC. If you download an M4P file from Apple iTunes, you will not usually be able to play it in a regular MP3 player.

Where do I send my tapes?

We purposely have not published a postal address, this is to ensure that only authorised tapes are sent in. This procedure enables us to control the flow of material coming into the studio. Each request submitted receives a unique reference number, this number can only be used once, any subsequent order will require a new reference. Repeat orders are naturally encouraged, but we would urge repeat customers NOT to send tapes without prior authorisation. Your co-operation with our authorisation procedure is appreciated. Whilst the submission form is the preferred method of authorisation request, we will respond to email and 'phone requests as promptly as possible.
