However, archivists and asset managers are now facing similar problems with digital formats that are often less than half as old as their analog counterparts. In fact, digital formats often display multiple issues that make recovery of the audio more challenging. The problems range from physical deterioration of the media to more critical problems such as format/equipment obsolesce, as well as poorly maintained equipment no longer capable of making recordings to factory specifications. Unlike analog recordings, which often yield audio under extreme conditions of deterioration, the loss of audio is complete when a digital format exceeds its error correction capabilities. Here we examine the issues that lead to a complete loss of audio and identify methods of recovering the tracks.
