VirSyn VTape VST RTAS 1.3.0

VirSyn VTape VST RTAS 1.3.0

Retu to Analog

VTAPE is a set of three plugins based on a thorough simulation of the
famous sound of analog tape machines.

VTAPE Saturator simulates the recording and playback on an analog tape
mastering machine.

VTAPE Delay combines this sound with a mode, step sequencer like tapped
delay engine which leads the tradition of the tape echo machines into the
21st century.

VTAPE Flanger simulates the legendary ?Tape flanging? effect which can be
achieved through the playback of two tape machines running at slightly
different speed.

Why and How ?

Why bothering about going back to analogue tape recording knowing that
todays digital audio recording is undoubtly more precise in reproducing the
original sound ?

Perhaps you already guessed the answer: itдs the imperfection and the
technical deficiencies which can add something wonderful to the sound if
properly used.

Most emulations of the tape soundд focus on the saturation characteristic
alone and underestimate the effect of a subtle amount of flutterд high
frequency fluctuations of the tape speed. This adds something which is
probably the most important part of the special sound: The harmonic lines
are "widened" by the effect of frequency modulation due to flutter which
causes a thickening of the audio signal contributing to the fat sound of
analog, compared to the more accurate, but thin sound of digital. This
effect called Modulation noiseд makes it easier to mix tracks together by
removing the static character especially of electric/electronic sounds.
Itдs interesting to know that many natural instruments have a "built in"
flutter effect which strongly contributes to their sound.

The distortion and compression effects due to the saturation characteristic
of magnetic recording depend on the input signal level. With normal
recording levels the distortion is around 1 which is away from sounding
really distorted but quite audible and adds a pleasant color to the sound.
Higher values should only be used as special effect on some suitable tracks
dependant on the style of music youдre after. The saturation is also
responsible for the instant compressionд effect which causes transient
signals to be reduced in level. In contrast to a dedicated compressor this
one is working with instant attack/release and therefore avoiding the
typical pumping artefacts.
