Overview

Name | Version: Tape Machine 1.2
Author: Supertramp162
Device Type: Audio Effect
Description: Tape Machine V1.2 is a cassette tape emulation effect for Ableton Live, designed by @supertramp162 (Stephen Black) to recreate the warmth, character, and imperfections of analogue tape recording.

Tape Machine combines saturation, noise, filtering, warping, distortion, and delay to create anything from subtle analogue coloration to heavily degraded lo-fi textures.

Features

🎛️ Dual Tape Paths — route audio through two independent tape emulation paths for layered and cascading processing.

📼 Cassette Tape Character — add warmth, saturation, hiss, frequency degradation, and mechanical instability to your sounds.

⏱️ Tape Delay — an optional delay path inspired by the character of using physical tape reels as delay, with adjustable feedback for creating echoes, loops, and ambient textures.

🌊 Extensive Tape Processing — shape each path with controls for noise, warping, distortion, filtering, and delay.

Tape Machine can be used as both an audio effect and a creative performance tool.
