Plugin Boutique are offering 68% off Tape Face by Kiive Audio for a limited time, now only £19.96 / $23.61 (usually £64.96 / $76.84). The offer ends September 4th.
Tape Face is an analog emulation of a classic Irish tape machine with a few added features to give you versatility in every mix!
Tape Face is perfect for adding warm analog character to your master or sub group busses. Use our custom bias algorithm to add unique low mids and saturation to drums and bass. Or throw it down on every track to emulate recording through a physical tape recorder using our very CPU friendly oversampling!
New Tape Modes
Red and White (I) – This mode is the exact same as the original tape face. Perfect for getting that pumpy tape sound while adding minimal distortion. This setting is best used for mix bus or drums with heavy transients that need taming.
Blue (II) – This tape mode is by far our favourite over here at kiive (as you’ll see by all the presets for this setting). This mode emulates a near perfectly calibrated tape machine with silky smooth high end, low end bump and a very usable tape compression when the input is driven. Perfect for mix bus or any finishing touches.
Grey (III) – This tape mode was made with all our loFi producers in mind. It’s a dark and gritty style tape saturation with every heavy Gain reduction and harmonics when pushed.
The In / Out section of Tape Face allows you to add subtle tape saturation to your tracks (If left at unity gain (0) ) or drive your sounds into more aggressive distortion by cranking the input knob. This section also includes a link button to automatically attenuate your output volume when pressed in.
The Meter / IPS section of Tape Face allows you to change the VU meter style from the input signal, gain reduction and the output signal. The IPS switch allows you to toggle between 7.5 IPS and 15 IPS.
The Bias / Low Boost section of Tape Face allows you to adjust the tape bias from normal to +3. The low boost button engages a low-frequency EQ curve to make up for some lost low end while pushing the input. The noise knob lets you adjust the noise and hum volume found in analog tape machines.
Tape Face is available to PC and Mac users (VST, AU and AAX).
