Charles Vestal has released TapeScam, available for:
- Desktop – $4.99
- iOS – $2.99
Bring the sputter, wobble, and magnetic warmth of a well-loved four-track into any project. TapeScam stacks dual gain stages with randomized dropouts wow/flutter motion, and controllable hiss so you can dial in everything from gentle glue to saturated cassette chaos.
Features include:
- Blend Drive + Color to morph between smooth compression and spitty, asymmetrical crunch
- Wow/Flutter knob moves from subtle drift to dreamy vibrato, with Age-based randomness that keeps both channels alive
- Tone tilt plus Bass/Treble shelves let vou brighten guitars, thicken keys, or scoop space for vocals without leaving the plugin
- Tape Speed presets shift headroom, bandwidth and dropout behavior for “new” “used”, or “worn” tapes
- Noise and Comp switches give instant texture and evel matching, while Output trims sit post-saturation for easy gain staging
- Randomized dropout envelopes with smooth attack/hold/release phases create musical dips anc wear
NOTE: This is a plugin! It doesn’t make any sound or its own. Available as a VST3, AU and AUv3 plugin. TapeScam slots into your DAW of choice.
