Nostalgic Saturation
Tape Cassette 2 is an audio plugin that emulates the warmth, noise and character of old tape cassettes. Following up from our well received Tape Cassette 1, we've updated the plugin with a sleek interface and more changes under the hood too.

Along with a brand new selectable Type 1 Cassette Impulse Response (IR), we've improved the saturation algorithm, wow & flutter engine and implemented real sampled tape noise, all which results in a wonderfully warm and more accurate vintage sound. In addition to this you now have two VU meters to monitor your audio as well as selectable oversampling. Specifics are listed below:

Selectable Type 1 Cassette Impulse Response (IR)
Dynamic saturation curve algorithm implementing hysteresis and including oversampling
Wow & Flutter engines rebuilt to focus on smoother emulation
Real sampled noise from a Type 1 Cassette
Low Pass range increased down to 5kHz
Now you can easily add that classic sound entire track, or use directly on individual channels, for added movement, texture and warmth. Alternatively you can take it further than the material limitations of tape and push the parameters into a far more experimental soundscape, as a sound design tool.

Powerful and Simple Parameters
Saturation +/-24dB
Low Pass Filter 5-22KHz
Noise -80 to 0 dB
Wow 0 - 100%
Flutter 0 - 100%
IR On/Off
Oversampling (2x, 4x, 8x, 16x)

Oh thanks for not mentioning it's VST3 only... I can't even use VST3...

That's Reasons Studios' fault.

You can use this in another DAW and process your Reason Rack Plugin instruments.

No I can't... I use Reason 10.

Perhaps I can find some free DAW that can use VST3 and use it on exported tracks but I still think it's an important thing to mention when advertising a plugin that it is VST3 only.

That's unfortunate because it sounds amazing on Europa's pads. All it needs is a trim knob.

You could equally fire up The Echo,

Set to 100% Wet and pull the Delay Time to 8ms (turn off sync)
Put Feedback to 0
Wind up the Wobble until you feel unwell
Switch up the Color to one of the Drive settings and nastify to taste(lessness)
Mash the Filter button to On and set your Freq and Width to mud and you are a LoFi star!
If you add in Feedback and Diffusion it sounds even more like you drank too much.

If you don't like the Wobble's form, you can use any other LFO over CV to the Delay Time jack.

*Well, that is latency but seeing you intend to make it sound this wonky, who cares. You can always use the Groove setting to drag it back.
