The Best Way to Convert Audio Cassettes and Reels
Whether it’s your teenage band’s first album, a heartfelt chat with a grandparent, or another precious memory captured on cassette, those old recordings are worth keeping alive.
Over time, audio cassettes naturally deteriorate — and as they do, the quality of the recordings, and the memories they hold, begin to fade.
Converting audio cassettes to digital files is the best way to restore and preserve those sounds for the future. It’s a delicate process that requires the right equipment, experience, and a careful touch.
With many thousands of hours of audio conversions completed, we’ve helped countless people bring their memories back to life. Whether you’re looking to convert old audio tapes to digital or simply want to preserve your audio memories, your old cassettes and tapes are in safe hands with us.
We love what we do — helping people beat the technical challenges of digital conversion and keep their stories alive for years to come.
We’d love to preserve yours too.
We specialise in converting old cine film reels to easy to play everyday media formats such as Digital Videos such as MP4. Use our easy Supaphoto© Cloud Download Service or you can choose for example to convert cine film to USB. You can also opt for a set of DVDs in nice presentation cases.
Typically you will have one of the following formats – Standard 8 Cine Film, Regular 8 Cine Film, 8mm Cine Film, Super 8 Cine Film, 16mm Cine Film, 9.5mm Cine Film, or 35mmm Cine Film. We also restore cine film and provide video editing and video restoration services.
Film with Sound?
And by the way, with or without sound. We can handle magnetic or optical sound tracks for 8mm movies to digital conversion or even 16mm to digital as well.
Everybody is slowly running out of time to preserve their precious spools of old film. That’s why we offer 8mm cine film to dvd or 16mm cine film to dvd services. If you think that it’s safe simply because it’s stored in a box, you will be mistaken. Don’t let time take its toll by slowly erasing your old home movie cine reel memories. Furthermore, old tatty projectors will often chew them up – so best get them safety digitised by Supaphoto – supreme in this field for almost twenty years.
As the saying goes, all is well that ends well. With Supaphoto’s home movie conversion service, you’ll be receiving expert digitisation, super splice repairing, zero flicker and the love and care that is synonymous with Supaphoto – safely and professionally preserving the past for future generations.

Often, you’ll find yourself explaining the stories behind them or marvelling at how wonderful those moments were.
Home recordings hold some of the most amazing memories — from birthdays to holidays and weddings — carefully captured on those much-loved audio tapes and cassettes.
Don’t let those old tapes fade away. Sadly, with the passage of time, far fewer of us have a reliable tape player that we can trust to safely play our cherished recordings without risking damage to the original.

Do you offer Pro Wetgate Solution for Dust and Scratches?

Why Convert Your 9.5mm Cine Films?
Slowly but surely, the fun and affordability of capturing family memories and home movies on camcorders (also known as video cameras) became infectious. What was different though, was the excitement that bubbled up in knowing that you no longer needed to send your film off to be developed – as was the case with old cine film. Now you could have your cake and eat it! You would film your children in the park and one hour later, sit around the telly and watch it all back on VCRs with them sitting at our knees. Magical!
The film itself is gently transported and the scanner. In summary, you can trust us to convert your 9.5mm films into high quality MP4 files or DVDs. We won’t damage your film with our scanning technology which is the same as we employ for our other cine film to DVD services. Transferring from 9.5 mm cine film to DVD will be carried out in a professional and careful manner.
If you’ve ever handled 9.5mm cine films, you’ll know how magical it looks with it’s distinctive sprocket holes down the centre. Thousands of ‘Baby Pathéscope’ projectors were sold. They were hi-tech gadgets of their time! There’s quite an interesting history here in fact. Discover more – 8mm cine film to digital . (learn more – convert 16mm cine film to digital )
Viewing 9.5mm Cine Film - Avoid Damaging Your Films
We don’t recommend that you even try to view your films with an existing 9.5mm cine projector since the wiring is invariably old and dangerous.
We can transfer your films to MP4 digital files in standard or high resolutions. These can be provided on a memory stick or via our cloud where you can easily download and share your films in your family. Or you may prefer to have your films on a DVD. Both options have pros and cons and that’s why having both formats makes a lot of sense – both in terms of safety of handling and versatility. We can also advise on storage devices and software to help you get the most from any video editing projects that you may have in mind. Don’t worry though, if you’re not that confident about video editing, we can also handle this for you as part of our service.

More Questions About this Format
A: 9.5mm film was introduced by Pathé in the 1920s as an early home movie format. It became popular across Europe for recording family events, holidays, and special occasions. Supaphoto’s 9.5mm to digital service brings those historic memories back to life, allowing you to enjoy them on modern devices.
A: Over time, 9.5mm cine reels can deteriorate, shrink, or become brittle. Colours may fade, and the film may become unplayable on projectors. Digitising your 9.5mm film ensures your footage is permanently preserved, protected from further decay, and ready to view or share anytime.
A: Most 9.5mm films are silent, but if your reels contain magnetic or optical soundtracks, we can digitise the audio too. Supaphoto uses precise synchronisation methods to ensure your sound and visuals remain perfectly aligned in the final digital version.
