| If you happened to visit the "My Music" page on this website, then you already know I write music and have decades of professional recording experience. What you probably don't know is that I played all the instruments and sang all the vocal parts on every song, and that the entire CD was produced on the exact same equipment I'll be using to record YOUR music - yes, the equipment that helped earn these awards! I have used and repaired sound equipment most of my life. Whereas most other companies simply run an 8 track player through a computer (thereby transferring the hiss and noise with the music), I have a full recording studio with digital AND analog processing equipment. Many services have computer software to reduce noise and enhance the music but, frankly, I never use it because outboard analog equipment sounds so much better and preserves the original texture, flavor and ambiance of older music. But the trick is knowing how to use and set up the recording equipment. Being a certified audio technician and a professional Avionics technician, I work on complex circuits and elaborate systems every day of my life. Monday through Friday, I keep planes flying safely. Evenings and weekends, I'm performing top notch work in the audio environment, for customers and businesses nationwide. My lifelong love for music and electronics, combined with my very colorful professional background, enables me to deliver the very best PROVEN AND GUARANTEED recording quality, for roughly the same price as you would pay a company with a home computer and an old JC Penney 8 track player. I can transfer your music to - or from - any of the following formats: 8 TRACK - CD - MP3 - WAV - VINYL - REEL TO REEL - CASSETTE Prices: $30 per tape, or $20 each for 10 or more. For transfer to cassette, please add $2 per tape. |
| Besides being the best 8 track machine repair service in the entire world, BARRY FONE MUSIC also sports the best 8 track machines ever manufactured, and has a complete analog-digital recording studio. We can offer the best sound for 8 track to CD transfer - and that is absolutely GUARANTEED. |
| The best sound of ANY transfer service 100% GUARANTEED! |

My focus and expertise are in FANTASTIC SOUND, and FANTASTIC SOUND ONLY. I don't do labels, type out track listings, transfer album art, provide jewel cases, etc. A true, professional sound engineer places all his emphasis and focus on the sound of the music itself, and leaves the other stuff to other professionals - and that's what I do here. Your prized 8 track material will be transferred to CD with the best possible audio quality - and without any digital processing, thereby preserving that wonderful, warm analog sound. Ask other services about their knowedge, credentials and processing techniques! |
| Rekindle your romance with the warm, analog sound without the hiss and noise, or preserve your very important family memories with the service you can trust to recover the original material safely and professionally - send your work to BARRY FONE MUSIC ! |

| Ask other transfer services about their equipment, then check out the gear used at BARRY FONE MUSIC! It's plainly obvious that we have the "best of the best" in vintage audio recording equipment, and the knowledge and experience to utilize it to its full potential. Our "cassette recorder" alone (on bench at right) is an Audio Technica AT-RMX64 professional 4 track unit, with a Yamaha MR1642 16 channel studio mixer to bring it all together - 8 tracks, cassette, computer for CD burning, noise reduction, etc. This is all sweet-sounding ANALOG equipment to fully and faithfully capture the original sound and texture of your favorite music - with a full arsenal of electronic test gear within reach for precise calibration. You can't buy this sound equipment in any store anymore! |
