Comment Playback on an AT-LP3XBT recorded in high-resolution via a Sound BlasterX G5. Recordings of each side were made in WAV following wet- and anti-static cleaning of the record. Subsonic rumble was removed in Adobe Audition 2026, then careful declicking was done using iZotope RX 10. Master bus had the Channel Mixer effect applied to fold the recordings down to true dual mono. Resultant master WAV of both sides was normalized to -1dBTP without limiting, and exported to separate tracks. Tracks were faded at the top and tail ends to reduce surface noise in the gaps between tracks, and converted to FLAC with downsampling to 44.1kHz 16-bit in dBpowerAmp. This recording was made from the mono release.
