I just want to listen to my digital music in substandard quality

I like the Trouble preset with hiss turned off

The Best Tape Emu in iOS

ReelBus can nail tape saturation, compression, and the BOC/LoFi wobble better than just about anything else. (Most other “tape” sims in iOS only give you a static wow/LFO in place of random instability.). It’s also great for general tone polishing and master bus “glue”, especially with the SSL style compressor in Auria Pro.

This program is so good that it converted me to using it in Reaper on desktop as well. 5 stars, no question.

ToneBoosters can do no wrong.

These plugins are the real deal. This one in particular can be as subtle or drastic as you want it. And the added tape delay and stop effects are really lovely as well!

Excellent

A lot of uses for gritting up your sound and taking off digital edges

Extraordinary

This is my favorite effect of 2019. I now use it on EVERY SINGLE TRACK, as a pre-mastering step in Auria Pro. And the tweakability is incredible. Beautiful sounding when heavy or ‘transparent’.

From an Old Tape Guy

I worked with tape in the 70’s and 80’s an audio engineer; AGFA, Ampex mostly, and in 1/4, 1/2, and 2 inch formats 15 and 30ips with Dolby and without. This is a wonderful emulation. Great work.

Saw this demo’d on TheSoundTestRoom

HQ Plugins !

Highly recommended 🤩
