Your best bet would be to start with a clean sample. Or just leave it dirty.

Cleaning a dirty sample requires the force and Yoda is mad hard to get in touch with.

There's plenty of software out there that can aid in the cleaning process but it really just boils down to how good you are. How much work are you willing to put into one little sample?

Excellent advice. Get it right at the source. Most likely some debris lodged in the groove.

Use a quality stylus, keep it clean and use good record cleaners and anti static cleaners.


Absolutely. I would also add to this that if after following the above advice rom CoinUp!, and your "clean transfer" still sounds like a bowl of rice krispies, you can go import into Logic (as that's what you have), zoom in the audio window and correct the waveform.
