Advice on 'remastering' old tracks?

How to do this, that and the other. Share, learn, teach. How did X do that? How can I sound like Y?

Do you have any clips to share? It's difficult to imagine what you don't like about these recordings.

What did LANDR end up doing to your mix, and how much noise was audible with the results?

Get a demo of Gullfoss or SmartEQ. I put SmartEQ demo on some old tracks and it does the trick. Now, trying to save pennies to buy it but I want to try Gullfoss also.

You can very likely process them to sound better. Are they separate tracks (remix) or stereo? If stereo there's plenty you can do to improve the quality. EQ, Comp, FX, Reverb, stereo trix, subtle amounts of all the above. Discover the techniques and use the tools you can, although some are easier/better for some things. Without knowing the material i can't make any recommendations. Izotope Rx or ACON or some similar tool to deal with noise, Ozone or similar for making the track "radio ready" or ready for something( loudness, sheen, freq bal, imaging, etc.). i use all separate plug ins during this phase. experiment.

I quite like the Mastering App by singlecellsoftware (the maker of Caustic). It has all tools you need and is quite easy to use (or overuse)...
Android Version (might have problems on more recent versions of Android)
PC Version (free)

That's weird. For me the links work properly. And the second link leads to a forum post at singlecellsoftware.com, where the Windows version is linked.
I just downloaded it again and checked it with virustotal.com.
It showed one (presumably) false positve and all other engine seemed clean.
