Overview
| Name | Version: | VHSoid 1.0 |
| Author: | AkihikoMatsumoto |
| Device Type: | Audio Effect |
| Description: | Most tools that reference VHS operate at the surface level. Noise is added, bandwidth is reduced, pitch is modulated. The result resembles an aesthetic, but not a mechanism. VHSoid is built on a different premise. It models the internal processes of a VHS deck as a coupled physical system. Every parameter corresponds to a component or a measurable condition. Capstan torque, tape inertia, head wear, binder degradation, bias oscillation. These are not metaphors. They are variables in a signal chain where cause and effect remain intact. When the transport becomes unstable, the consequences propagate. Pitch drift is not isolated from noise. Contact instability increases friction artifacts. FM decoding collapses under stress. Hiss is not static. It breathes with the motion of the tape. The system behaves as a system. |
