Does the record jacket have any info on what equalization was used in
the recording of the LP? By the mid 60's I thought most of the
different equalizations had faded out. I know that the amplifier I
built in 1960 had a switch for a whole bunch of equalizations while most
of the amplifiers did not have these options (the geek in me bought it).
I would do one and see how you like the sound. If it is reasonable, go
with it, otherwise try to compensate the RIAA. I would not take the
RIAA out and then try to add back a new equalization..

I am new to Amadeus Pro and to this forum. Thanks, Martin, for the software; it's a lovely program.
I'm hoping someone will have some suggestions about appropriate equalization for the following items:
I am transferring from LP to CD via Amadeus Pro some recordings which I have on French Pathe LPs from the mid-1960's. They're in the "Enregistrements Illustres" series (French equivalent of the "Great Historic Recordings" series that Angel/EMI put out in the mid-1960's). These LPs contain performances recorded originally by EMI in England in 1935 and 1937. I'm doing the transfer from my turntable via a standard RIAA-compensating phono preamp.
Question: do I leave things as is, or is there a more ideal equalization? Should I remove the RIAA compensation curve and substitute something else?
I welcome any and all ideas. Thanks for giving this your attention.
