Somewhere in a drawer, a closet, or a dusty box, your old audio tapes and records are waiting. The mixtape a friend made you in 1987. Your dad's vinyl collection. A cassette of a band that never made it big — but sounded incredible. The good news: the music is still in there. The bad news: the window to save it is closing. Magnetic tape deteriorates over time, and the players to play them are nearly impossible to find. Fleetwood Photo transfers audio cassettes, reel-to-reel tapes, and vinyl records to digital files — so the songs, voices, and memories you loved can live on your phone, your speakers, and your playlist today. From vinyl LPs to cassette mixtapes, we've heard it all — and we'll make sure you can hear it again. Every transfer is handled in-house at our Knoxville lab, delivered as high-quality digital audio files ready to stream, share, or simply rediscover.
Dig out those old cassettes, records, and reel-to-reel tapes — the mixtape from 1988, your dad's vinyl collection, a recording of a voice you haven't heard in years. If it made sound once, there's a good chance we can bring it back.
Every tape and record is inspected, cleaned, and carefully transferred in-house by our Knoxville team. We capture clean, high-quality audio and convert it to digital files — no outsourcing, no shipping your irreplaceable recordings away.
Your finished audio files are delivered on a USB drive or via digital download — ready to play on any device, add to a playlist, or share with family. Your original tapes and records are always returned to you.
Each and every item is hand-digitized by our team, right here in our store. All audio media is first inspected, repaired and then cleaned in preparation for the transfer process. Proper handling of this media is a very important first step, as old records, reels and tapes can become brittle over time. Our experienced technicians are trained to properly handle vintage audio media and can splice or repair existing breaks or cracks.
We never recommend shipping away family archives, treasured photos and irreplaceable home video movies. It’s too risky. Fleetwood The Print Refinery has been professionally preserving memories with archiving and scanning services in Knoxville for over 30 years.
We can transfer the following audio media to CD or any format you choose:
LP’s: 45 records, 33 records, 78 records
Reel-to-reel
Audio cassettes
