Can't wait !


It can be done with a free programm called "Moises".

Can only get a link to the Dutch-languaged site but I am sure you expertscan change it to English language.

Someone I know has transferred several of the mono LP's to "stereo" using this programm.

Perhaps that someone you know can let you have a sample of his work to post here so that we can hear it. I'm very interested.

I'm interested in the technology. I've just found a free one that separates the vocal from the backing and put one of my own songs from about 50 years ago through it. Haha, it's interesting.

If Moises is anything like Spleeter, then it's very basic. I used Spleeter and posted a few examples on AEK, and we all agreed that it was impressive for something free (and which is basically just a 'press this button and wait' program) but it was fooling nobody. There's another, better program that came out since, but I can't remember the name. It's still not as good as the more sophisticated stuff, though.

I use SpectraLayers for my personal projects as a hobby, not to profit from a technology that is still in its infancy, unlike this pseudo-sound engineer who exploits it for his "creations" across labels.

I just tried the 2 track freebie which separates the vocal from the backing. It did a good job. I'm not paying out for the multi track version, well, not until I'm ready to start bootlegging.

There's a couple of free multi track programs, one of which is Spleeter. You get vocals, drums, guitar, piano and bass if I remember correctly. Then mix them in audacity.

Listening to this CD right now for the second time today, it’s been an absolute pleasure hearing these tracks in wonderful stereo, I can assure you you will enjoy every second of this album.

That depends on who answers the question and what their own personal agendas may be.
Elvis fan forum answers are not the best places for you to make your own judgments from.
Find some samples on line and judge for yourself.

Who can say? It's all down to your own preference?

The RDM ones are well done as are the MRS ones, but they have a very different feel to them, and have been mixed and mastered quite differently. I don't have any Eric records releases, so can't comment on them.

Even better, go here, and listen to the very fabulous A Big Hunk Of Love given the from mono to stereo treatment, at 20'44", or scroll back a few seconds to hear pseudo producer (his words) Anthony Stuchbury, introduce it.

I can't wait for these 1958 sessions stereoised.
