Audible distortion may accompany background noise.Īssuming the stylus is good and aligned, I think the problem is a record defect. Background noise can be low level crackle or hiss, or sometimes a loud crackle during a transient. (etches and scores the groove wall) Damage can occur almost unpredictably during a quiet passage, or a loud one. Damage can occur from a worn stylus or misaligned stylus, or playing the record dirty. (surface noise sourcing from surface scratches perhaps accurate)īackground noise always occurs from a damaged/worn groove or defective groove, or dirt. the groove wall itself has been breached, so the more accurate term would be "background noise". So, even a deep scratch isn't surface noise. Really it is background noise, because "surface noise" can not be produced by a record surface, since the stylus always tracks the groove. Have a problem with a specific plugin or want to provide some feedback.or maybe you have a great idea for a new plugin - This is the place to share Just visit the PlayOn Plugin Channel Store and click on User. If you have a used, older record with surface noise in one channel, it's also possible a previous owner played it with a damaged stylus that scraped one groove wall.Ĭlick to expand.When we say "surface noise" we all understand what is meant by that. Hey gang.We now have a dedicated forum for the PlayOn Plugin Channel Store and a thread for each plugin. Either way, I think shoddy quality control at the pressing plant is to blame. I've heard people say it could be the result of crud accumulating on the stampers during a pressing run, and for whatever reason it has built up on only one groove wall I've heard others suggest it's a form of non-fill. I don't know enough about the record pressing process to give you an informed explanation of why this happens. (And I also think you'd be hearing the sound degrade in other ways.) Otherwise, it's likely just a pressing defect. I think if the issue were your turntable or stylus, you'd be hearing this a lot more frequently on many more records. Another new LP I bought this month had occasional surface noise in the left channel only. Three brand new LPs I bought this year had intermittent crackling noise in the right channel only. I've encountered a number of LPs over the years with surface noise that occurs only in one channel.
