Tape Cassette 2 from Caelum Audio brings the sound of a Type 1 cassette: hysteresis-based saturation on a dynamic curve, sampled tape noise and a switchable impulse response. Wow and flutter put movement into the sound, a Low Pass control trims the top end, and two VU meters sit alongside selectable oversampling.

Features
  • Saturation uses a dynamic curve with hysteresis.
  • Switchable Type 1 cassette impulse response.
  • Low Pass control rolls off the high end.
  • Adds tape noise sampled from a Type 1 cassette.
  • Wow and flutter controls add movement.
  • Two VU meters and selectable oversampling.
