Playback equalization for 78 rpm shellacs

Hi, is there anywhere a library of equalization curves for shellacs to playback proper sound or maybe a solution/tutorial to create curves in the Voxengo EQ plug-in?

thx

Hi!

I found this on the net…

do a search on:
library of equalization curves for shellacs to playback

https://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/78rpm_playback_curves

See this: Replay equalisation
From that you can try to construct a suitable CurveEQ preset. The “Load CSV/Save CSV” facility is great for this if you’re handy with a spreadsheet or other graphing application, in order to get more data points and therefore smoother curves (splines). If you follow the Nyquist plugin method in Audacity, you can also generate a CSV (text file) that can be loaded into CurveEQ.

Thx S-EH,
I know already this sites…it works for Audiacity but not for Wavlab. I’m looking for a solution in Wavelab for editing shellac recordings by substitute the RIAA-Curve and adding the recommended curve of manufacturer.

Regards

You can download CSV files from the Github S-EH showed you and load them into CurveEQ.
