Digital Transfer Services

We have listened to the CDs and you have done a great job! We think the CDs sound better than the original records. Listening to the music after all these years brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much.
Cathy and Mark Kelly
I couldn't be happier with the service I received from TechHelp Ottawa. The sound quality from the cassette tape was amazingly clear and the custom made label was the perfect finishing touch. The entire transaction was easy and quick. I appreciate that it was affordable and that all fees were clearly listed up front. I would recommend TechHelp Ottawa to anyone looking for audio transfers!

Just wanted to drop by a quick thanks for the conversion yesterday. The song sounds good and it's nice to finally be able to listen to it (didn't want to damage it with my cheap player). It was really great to have such affordable and quick service. I'll definitely refer you in the future should I have any friends with vinyl jobs.
Cheers, Ted M.
We have several cassette tapes in our family dating back 30 to 50 years. They contain musical memories of family gatherings. and they're not pristine recordings; an inexpensive tape recorder placed in the middle of my grandparent's dining table and all my dad's brothers and sisters playing and singing. Celtic reels played on a fiddle, old country favourites harmonized with guitar accompaniment, dishes and bottles clinking in the background and children laughing and never being told to be quiet; that's what these tapes contain – my childhood.

I also have recordings of my two children when they were very young, singing and giggling. I laugh and cry while I listen to these recordings I made so long ago. What a gift.

I researched the web carefully and when I found Stuart Fraser's website it gave me the impression of someone who takes care in their work. I hoped he designed the site because it is impressive in a world of confusing, slapped together sites that just frustrate. I was right.

From the minute I contacted him it was a smooth, congenial process. He offered great suggestions and ideas I hadn't thought of; something you hope for in a professional and often don't find.

If you're thinking of archiving your cassettes or special photographs while they are still intact, I recommend him to anyone who needs this work done. Stuart's fair prices came as an additional bonus.

You won't be disappointed.

Sincerely, Peggy F.
“I just wish to thank you, Tech Help, for the CDs you produced from my music tapes. Every time I play one I am grateful (no—MOST grateful) to you. My life is much richer now. Lots of good memories come to me. With much gratitude and appreciation for your skills to produce such great quality. Thanks a million!”

"I am a freelance videographer. I chose TechHelp after looking around for a reputable company to convert my video portfolio. I was very impressed with the quality of service and products."
R. Cloutier—Videographer, Orleans
"I am employed by a facility in Ottawa that supports clients struggling with substance use issues. We use a variety of training tools for staff - including some that were still on cassette tape.

Our Centre hired Tech Help Ottawa on June 29, 2010 to convert 14 cassette training tapes to CD so that we could continue utilizing them. The tape lengths varied from 60 to 90 minutes.

We were very pleased with the outcome as much of the training information was still relevant. The job was completed quickly and Tech Help Ottawa was very professional. We would be more than happy to employ Tech Help Ottawa for any future conversion requirements."

"I grew up with my mother’s collection of 78s, though I hadn’t heard them in many years. Who has a 78 rpm turntable anymore? But Tech Help Ottawa was able to convert them into audio files, and with amazing sound to boot. It was a life’s joy to listen to them. And, at 91, Mom got to hear the old music again."
John I. — Journalist
"It was a nostalgic, if minor, exercise. In what must have been a somewhat fastidious task, Tech Help transfered 62 45 rpm tracks to CD's with excellent results at a very reasonable price. Records dating from the 60's and 70's from Europe, Latin and North America can now be enjoyed without jumping up every 10 minutes to change the record. (I no longer have a stacked spindle for the player.)"
JR Roy—Happy Customer
"Thanks to TechHelp, I can now watch my wedding videos without fear of the VHS tapes being ruined. What a great service. Tech Help Ottawa took my old VHS tapes and converted them to DVD. The service was quick, convenient, and best of all affordable! I now not only have the DVD, but a backup as well. I will definitely use them again if needed."
Brenda M—Gr. 6 Teacher
"I had an old cassette tape lying around that I had wanted to transfer to CD for a long time. It was a tape of my grandmother talking about her life and singing some songs in her mother tongue (Italian), and it was very precious to me. TechHelp Ottawa took good care of the cassette tape and they were able to make my grandmother's voice much clearer than it had been on the original cassette. They also printed a picture of my now deceased grandmother on the label. I thought this was a nice touch."

"During the 2008 Government of Canada charitable campaign, a number of fund-raising efforts were made in our Department. Although each one was as innovative as the other, one particular project stood out in our sector: the production of a calendar with photos of management members, which was very successful and generated a tidy sum. This project would not have been possible without the invaluable volunteer contribution of TechHelp Ottawa. Because we did not have a production budget, they graciously designed a custom layout and produced a beautiful calendar in record time and at no charge, and for this we are very grateful. Thank you!"

Words of Appreciation

"As a school principal, I appreciated TechHelp Ottawa's technical expertise in setting up our school websites for my last two schools. Updates were timely, accurate and always creatively done. Not only are they excellent problem solvers, but TechHelp's good ideas and creativity around showcasing my schools have made a great impact on students, staff, parents and the community. If you want to represent your business or organization well, hire Tech Help Ottawa."
Heather G.—Principal
"Along with a digital camera and photo printer, TechHelp Ottawa helped me purchase and set up my first home computer—a Mac. They also helped me overcome the intimidation of getting started using my new equipment. With their patience and perseverance, I've gained a better understanding and confidence! I now email pictures to friends and family and broadcast my music wirelessly from my computer to locations throughout my house. They also helped me buy and set up my high definition TV, and their ongoing assistance is just a phone call away!"
Pauline H.—Retired government employee
“I appreciated TechHelp Ottawa’s help in setting up my computer-based music library, which allows me to broadcast music wirelessly to my stereo system. I was very impressed with how they persevered to solve the issues with my older Windows computer.”
