Wet play with Soap or Saliva !

Are you serious.. ??

I know that a record can sound better when played wet but according most other sources the record get even worse if you ever try to play it dry again.

I'm not that brave, Maybe I'll try it on a record that is unplayable even after normal cleaning attempts.

Firstly, place a little liquid soap onto the record, add a little water and lather. What you need to end up with is a fairly thick consistency of bubbles (you'll soon get the hang), that'll last for a few minutes. As soon as you have the lather all over the 12", transfer to digital ASAP, before the lather dries out too much.

For a moment I thought you were describing a new method for getting a close shave

I find Audacity really easy to use. The book "Burning Down The House" by Elliot Van Buskirk is perfect as a guide for anyone who wants clear step by step instructions (with Pictures) on the process using audacity. The book can usually be gotten cheaply as a used book via Amazon.com.
