Abstract: 

Increasing capacity for digitisation is an important strategy to address the urgent need to digitise analogue audio holdings. The NFSA is introducing new workflows including CEDAR batch processing, multiple ingest and multi-track ingest to increase our capacity for audio digitisation. This paper looks at the planning, purchasing and implementation of systems to support these new workflows, and the initial experience of their implementation. Issues considered include sustainability of multi-track playback, implementation of user driven batch presets for multiple files, and Quality Control in multiple ingest workflows.
