Awhile back I digitized some vinyl at 16bit and applied the click removal tool in Audacity software. Some commenters suggested that I try out ClickRepair software and iZotrope software.

My original video about digitizing vinyl is HERE:

In this video, I encoded another record with some serious scratches, pops, and clicks, cleaned it with my Spin Clean record washer, and encoded it using my Tascam DR-40 recorder, that can record 24 bit wav files at 96KHz. I then used the trial version of "Click Repair" software set to the default LP setting to see what type of results I would get. I also tried out iZotope RX8.

You can find the Click Repair software HERE:

This is trialware with a 21 day trial period.

iZotope RX8 can be found HERE:

It should be noted that the trial version of iZotope RX8 is crippleware, and will not save changes you make to your recordings.
