Sirensound Digital remains a preferred contractor to the British Library Sound Archive having recorded thousands of obsolete recordings to a more robust digital format, and I try to keep the older machines in service by using them as often as possible so they're ready when required.

We archive according to the AES and IASA standards utilising 96 kHz 24 bit converters with the capacity to transfer from one channel to 24 channels.
A fresh power supply to the studio was installed so all audio (and video) work would be on a seperate clean single phase.
