Transfer and Restoration Pricing & Additional Costs

Creative Audio Works takes a disciplined approach to restoration services, tailored to each recording. Archival transfer and restoration are performed on an hourly basis at $75 per hour for the first hour and billed in 1-hour increments after that. We do not charge a per-piece rate for restoration. Prices for restoration services are best quoted after the initial transfer of recorded material.

For large orders, per-piece pricing is available for transfers. Please contact Creative Audio Works for more information.
