From that vinyl.
Need it in wav quality, without any crackles if possible.
Checked all online shops, no digital release... |

Says there's 3 vinyl copies going. You must have a turntable, surely? |

No one is going to be selling vinyl with cracks in! |

My vinly player (yes, just a player) broke a couple of years ago and i'm not buying a new one since I've had bad experience with 2nd hand vinlys from discogs anyway. Most guys I used to buy from back in 2007-09 labeled their stuff in Very good shape but most had tons of tiny and some heavy cracks (just look on one of those sellers on discogs, same case, one was even honest enough to post that his copy contains a lot of scratches... -,-)
Paying at least 25 euros for an very clean rip though...
Edit: just saying, the less cracks it has, the more i will pay |

bad experience? 75% of the vinyls I have bought on Discogs have been playable/cleanable. To be honest, that value is much larger than actually buying new vinyls (from IMO for example). You nee to check what the status says on Discogs. Go for nothing less than Very Good, unless you really want the vinyl. |

Sami, my point is that most sellers just label everything with "Very good" even when it's not the case... and it was nothing I could have done it with some simple cleaning, I spend hours of cleaning vinyls... I don't want to do this again, I rather pay far more than usual for an good rip. |

Yea, but my rate of good vinyls is still better than buying them new. This is valid everywhere, but check the Sellers feedback. If they are mostly 97-100% satisfactory, then I would buy from them.
Blindly buying stuff will burn if you're not prepared... or just stupid. |

i went with 90%+ back in the day, but I will not buy a new turntable or player for a few tunes (I can't stand vinyl cleaning anymore, pure horror for me) ;)
may think about buying some other tunes in better quality, since I converted some stuff in 192kbps, with weak high and low freq -__-
dropped another PM to dougal, this time with a better offer, but i doubt he will answer me.
if he is not answering, i hope someone on here have time to make a decent rip... |

Are you saying the vinyl is actually cracked? Cracked means split, broken. |
| DJ Hellfury |
Ok, thanks for pointing that out, actually meant 'crackles' |
| DJ Hellfury |
No vinyl collectors with a decent copy here? |
| Hard2Get |
It will always be hard to find DJ vinyl in perfect condition as it has to be pretty much unused for that to be possible. The nature of DJ'ing means they are handled all the time. Not much time for being really careful! And it's not normally a problem. |
| DJ Hellfury |
Not only djs buy vinyls ;) |

without some cleaning software, it's near impossible to get any vinyls that doesnt contain crackles or pops. Out of my 180 vinyls, maybe 8 or 10 contains a side that's almost completly free and maybe 2 vinyls that has no crackles or pops at all. Most of my vinyls have easy to remove crackles tho. |
| DJ Hellfury |
rather pay 10 times more than spending too much time on cleaning and software tbh., dont even have a turntable atm., so if anyone has the vinyl in a good shape and may know something about cleaning software, give me a shout here. |
| Hard2Get |
'Cleaning' software probably does more harm than good. You cant remove crackles without removing some detail of the song. Just embrace the tiny insignificant noises that don't alter the listening experience at all! Given that all DJ sets were vinyl until recently, what did you listen to? |

Funny. Someone who said that he hates MP3 (or anything less than 96Hz/24bit), mentioned that he'd rather have a cleaned vinyl rip FLAC than a proper digital copy in MP3 :P |

After we finally cleared up the true meaning of the word 'Crack' when describing vinyl audio, I would like to respond to the original request and provide you with a copy of the wanted track.
I have myself ripped my copy into digital format for my cdj's and so in my opinion it is a good, clean, quality audio.
Let me know what you reckon hellfury and we can sort it out.

I have it. Near mint, played the A Side - Shelter From A Dream about 10 times and the B-Side even less.
Sent you a PM |
