I am helping my brother get his music ready for a CD for his new site at CDBaby. I have tapes of a live concert, pre-digital, made with broadcast quality tv camera; pulled the audio off it. We've sold tapes and CDs of it for years with no complaints. Now that the digital age is here, it sounds REALLY muffled. Is there a way to clean that up?

Also, I have a digitally recorded later live concert, but it was during a difficult time in his life. There are a couple of minor mistakes in his playing, one might not notice if one doesn't know the piece. So, I could use some of the digitally recorded stuff, but my feeling is the performance quality is better on the old recordings.

Any preferences when you go to listen to a one off? Does "historical" count for anything? We also have a symphonic recording, Ode to the Rockies, which will have to be analogue as we have no other recording of it.

I have been working on getting him to dip his toe in, so this doesn't have to be a fancy/humongous project.

Thanks,
