Re: tape a quarter or shilling on top of the cartridge

the govt disagrees with most of the denizens in the colonies over here

for a short playing to see if the record is bad

what other test for the LP to see if it is the culprit

Re: Combining 2 ALaw mono PCM files into Stereo

can you select the top file and click on left
pick the bottom file and click on right
select the top one again and click on convert to stereo
[feature request - add that option to both channels ]
save with new name
export as wav or whatever you want to do next

your dentist should be the next stop
various fixes depending on the root cause

you may want to live with it unless it is painful or causes other problems
but talk to your medical/dental professional about it !!
