In Reply to: Odd question....is there a way to 'remove' a pop or a tick? posted by NuWave on April 14, 2007 at 09:23:51:
About 27 years ago (before digital tools, of course!), I worked for the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) in film sound. One afternoon, a producer came in with an old 78 he needed to play on air. It was full of clicks and pops, so, it being a quiet afternoon, I took on the job of cutting them out. I recorded it onto 1/4" tape on our old Ampex recorder, then spent several happy hours rocking the tape across the heads to find and mark the clicks and then splice them out. The result was a relatively click-free recording. As the splices were very small, the timing differences resulting from very short lost pieces of tape were not noticeable.I wouldn't do it again (or need to), but it filled in a couple of empty hours. Now of course you can do the same with digital tools, but you loose the analog-ness of the recording.
