Free AUv3 Tape Cassette Effect

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 and built in oversampling.

You can easily add that classic sound to an 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.

Parameters:

⁃ Saturation (+/-24dB)
⁃ Low Pass Filter (5 to 22KHz)
⁃ Noise (-80 to 0 dB)
⁃ Wow (0 to 100%)
⁃ Flutter (0 to 100%)
– IR (On/Off)

Tape Cassette 2 is both a stand-alone application as well as an AUv3 plugin, meaning it works within iOS and iPadOS hosts such as GarageBand.

Reelbus magnetic tape simulator for iOS

ToneBoosters ReelBus is a top-quality, faithful, versatile and accurate magnetic tape simulation plug-in bringing warmth and excitement of tape to your iOS or iPadOS device!

Instant gratification from 80s compact cassette sound to professional 30 IPS studio recorder simulation. Sweeten your mix with a touch of tape hysteresis, saturation and compression. Create that ‘Boards of Canada’ sound by adding a tad of wow-and-flutter. Top it up with tape flanging, echo and tape start/stop effects.

The ToneBoosters ReelBus app captures the microphone (or external sound card) input and processes the signals in real time. To use it as a plug-in, use an AUv3-compatible host app such as Steinberg Cubasis, Apple Garageband, Audio Evolution Mobile Studio, Auria, AUM, or others. ToneBoosters ReelBus will appear in the list of Audio Unit extensions for effect plug-ins.

Key features:

– The same professional sound as the acclaimed desktop version

– Wide variety of tape and saturation modes available

– Saturation, hysteresis, wow and flutter, tape hiss, asperity noise controls

– Tape speed and amount controls

– Unique drive EQ to drive certain frequencies harder into the tape model

– Tape wear model for worn-out tape simulation

– Tape flanger and dual tape echo modules, with beat sync functionality

– Tape start and tape stop effect modules

– Oversampling and anti-aliasing filters for top-quality output

– Input and output VU meters showing peak and RMS levels simultaneously

– Undo/redo, and A/B comparison

– Color themes for the user interface

– Max screen support in Garageband

– Legacy Inter-App Audio (IAA) support

– Optimised for iPad and compatible with iPhone and iPod Touch

Save and export of settings

– The stand-alone app (and IAA app) can load and save settings (locally on iPad, via iCloud, or via iTunes file sharing).

– These Saved files can also be loaded into the desktop version of the plug-in.

– The AUv3 version can export settings to be used in the stand-alone app or desktop version.

What you should know:

– Inter-App Audio (IAA) can only use one instance of this app simultaneously. We recommend to use an AUv3 host to use multiple instances.

– Licenses acquired for this platform (iOS, iPadOS) are not compatible with other platforms.

Fly Tape DAW Cassette Comparison
Author View comments Tags Tags: , , , , , , , , , ,

Hello every body this is Jason Donnelly aka Dj Puzzle reporting for my website ipadloops.com and today I’m going to show you two cool new effects. Both effects emulate an old cassette tape meaning they can make your brand new sparkling mix sound like it was playing back on an old broken down tape player. On one hand we have Fly Tape by MSXII and the other DAW Cassette by Klevgrand. They are both unique in their own way and they were both released just recently within the past couple of weeeks so I wanted to do a sort of comparison review for both in one video. Now I noticed a lot of the demos for these apps show the app on a master buss affecting the whole mix so I wanted to demo them as an insert effect on a single track. In this case a midi track using an AU instrument.

*I should add “Head Quality” in DAW Cassette is the LoFi effect in that one I kinda rushed over it and skipped that info.

Choose between three different tape types (normal, chrome, metal)
Control the noise level with dolby emulation (including a noise free option, Dolby K).
Tape-, head- and motor* quality knobs for dialing in the perfect sound
Additional input gain, output gain and dry/wet mix parameters for convenience.
