The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Bart, that's a great song! I really like these Pathé records and also bought one years ago for a relative high price just to have one. They look so cool!

And yep, Cool Edit / Audition is something I do also highly recommend!
This one was too ticklish for not touching it. I got the clicks removed perfectly with my Audition. Although I am using the latest version 3.0, the earlier ones should have the certain feature too. The Click/Pop Eliminator has a nice function called "Fill Signle Click Now". You just mark a single click (max. 1 sec.) and then let Audition / CoolEdit (much better name, though) interpolate this area. It can work great if you apply it carefully.

You can't beat the quality in combination with Sony NR plugin. Here's what I got out of it:

Hi Norman, you did some nice post-processing on my transfer. I've looked into Adobe Audition, but I found it to be rather expensive. So for the time being I just stick to my trusty Click Repair and VSP.

Some of Pathé's early electricals were made with the system devised by Herbert Berliner ( my avatar ) for his own company, Compo in Montreal. At least that's the story. I wonder if this is one of those. I am intending to do more digging on this subject soon.
