78-RPM to Digital Transfer
I have a different kind of question I’m hoping someone can help me with. Can any of you point me to a service that can make a digital file from a 78-rpm record?
After a close relative died recently, we uncovered something I didn’t know existed. Apparently, in 1953, my grandmother made a record. She is listed as the singer and there is an accompanist listed as well. It looks like something that was done for their personal use, maybe the only copy or one of only a few. Unfortunately, both she and my father have passed so there is no one to ask about it.
The disks are in pristine condition, but I don’t have a turntable that spins at 78 so I have no way to hear it. Needless to say, I’m curious. If for no other reason just to hear her voice from a few years before I was born. A digital copy would also allow me to share it with other members of the family who may be interested.
Given the nature of the question, I’ve posted it to more than one forum so you may see it elsewhere as well.
Thanks in advance for any help.
