Tape has gained a loyal following over the years because of its ability to recreate the classic sound of analog tape, with its signature saturation and harmonic distortion. Many producers and engineers turn to Tape to add warmth, depth, and a sense of vintage authenticity to their recordings. The plugin works by accurately modeling the nonlinearities of analog tape, including the natural compression and saturation that occurs when signals pass through real tape machines. This results in a sound that is warm and inviting, with enhanced depth and character. Tape’s subtle harmonic distortion also enriches the audio, creating a more musical and organic tone that is often difficult to replicate with other plugins.

This update addresses the bug that was affecting the Studio One DAW, where the plugin would crash when removed from a session. While this issue was frustrating, we have now ensured that the plugin works without interruption in Studio One and other supported DAWs. This fix will improve the overall user experience, allowing you to focus more on your creative work and less on technical issues. With this update, Tape will now integrate flawlessly into your production environment, providing a smooth and reliable experience no matter the project you are working on.
