Andrew Elder, Operations Coordinator, The History Project, Boston
Hired Mass Productions to transfer and restore 28 year old master tapes of the radio program “Boston’s Other Voice” from their archives to CD’s and streaming audio files for the web. View The Press Release Their next project will be transferring and restoring 20 year old Umatic and Betacam videotapes to DVD and flash video for the web.“Working with Paul was a nearly effortless process. Often, before I had the opportunity to ask an archival- and/or preservation-related question regarding the transfer process, Paul provided an answer. He is knowledgeable both about the transfer process and about the processes of preserving analog and digital recordings. This degree of understanding is of much importance to The History Project, a nonprofit, community-based archives. In addition, Paul was a pleasure to work with – and I look forward to continuing to benefit from his expertise in the future as we transfer additional materials from analog to digital formats, for use online and in our archives.”-Andrew
James Wallace, Music Director, The Putney School, Vermont
Contracted Mass Productions to digitize 500 rare Jazz records from the school’s music library. The digital files were then imported into iTunes, and a complete music database created. This allowed students to access the school’s Jazz music library from any computer on campus, as well as from home. It also preserved and protected the schools valuable record collection. The school hopes this project will pave the way to having their entire record library of over 6,000 titles converted to digital over the next few years.
