Who isn’t familiar with the wobbling and warbling, the droning and dragging? Mechanical degradation caused by defective devices or sticking tapes, by ageing or defective storage. In the past, it was usually impossible to get rid of wow and flutter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eCountless recordings of renowned orchestras, big bands and rock groups are currently slumbering deep in archives.
