    Hey, Just a guess what it could be.

    Well, the humming sound is probably caused by the record player. Did you ground it properly to the rest of the set-up ? Sounds like my old sl1200 with a messed up power supply.

    The ticks and rumble you hear are inaudible when unprocessed , since BBP holds a magnifying glass on to the record ,it lifts up all the nasty little bits and pieces.

    Maybe you could run the song trough an offline processor like audition??? and remove the clicks ,pops and rumble.
    The humming noise.. don’t know.. maybe you should consider ripping it again on a less noisy player.

    This (vinyl) analog audio recording really sucks big time.
    It’s ripped very badly.

    Completely agree with joop.

    i agree about rumble and bruming.
    i did not rip this song just downloaded as is.
    "Ticks and kliks" in bass mostly .. that is bother me! BBP should not work on it in that way.

    BBP is not an audio scrubber, it’s a high powered audio processor that, like an earlier poster says, takes a magnifying glass to the audio. Garbage in, garbage out…except on the output the garbage becomes MUCH more evident. Clean audio…clean output.

    True. When you use an audio processor, especially with aggressive processing, you have be real careful with the quality of source material. You can’t download random tracks from the internet and expect good results every time — it just doesn’t work that way.

    If you play the song without breakaway, and turn the volume way up, I’ll bet you’ll hear the same problem.

    If you want to prevent BBP from ever turning up the volume this much, you can lower the Range control — that’s what it’s for! 🙂

    Since i putted on the stereo widener you hear it better when the source material has a bad quality. I have to replace a lot of older songs, with a lower bitrate (and worse quality). If you just play them without BBP they sound reasonable / good, when using BBP with the stereo widener (can’t remember the exact term) it sounds like a really bad song.

    That’s normal — quite often lossy encoders will allocate more bits to L+R than L-R, so the L-R will have more artifacts. When you boost the stereo field, those artifacts are really brought out 🙁.

    And not all encoders are made equal. In fact… most suck. Great example, iTunes implementation of FhG F.A.S.T. Even at 320kbps it sounds worse than Lame at 128kbps.
