  1. Are the patches on the casettes, like a Mellotron? Or is a single source being fed through the casettes, like a tape delay but without the delay? It sounds like exaggerated antique radio with tape flutter.

  2. The cool thing about the particular tape noise in this library is that it almost emulates the timbre of human breath (say blowing a woodwind) or the noise of a bow dragging across strings. It instantly makes the synth feel more analog and “real” 😁

  4. I wish the Labs instruments I download would show up in the LABS vst instead of randomly disappearing. Or at least I wish that repairing the library would actually repair it.

  5. this is also a phantastic instrument to ad subtil layers with fine texture under a piece. I just re-opened a project of a music-track for a little film project, that i had thought already finished, now i just added some very quiet, constant notes of cassette deck, while turning the variant-settings up and down… and , if you listen to the track, you don't realy realise it is there, but when i turn it of, it suddenly leaves a big gap…. phantastic.
