Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 78096, member: 636"] Variety of Sound dropped a new plugin, FerricTDS mkIII. It is an update to their old tape dynamics simulator, which won some developer challenge years back. This thing aims to emulate the warmth and compression of vintage tape machines. The plugin is meant to glue a mix together and shape tone. You can use it for subtle warming or for more obvious harmonic distortion. It messes with bass, mids, and highs to make things sound louder and more controlled. The update adds a new toolbar with a preset manager and an A/B comparison function. A headroom control makes calibration simpler. Under the hood, the limiter is always on when you hit a certain level, acting like a soft clipper. They added a wow and flutter effect for that wobbly tape sound. There is also high-frequency compression and a transformer simulation for extra color. Basically, it is a tape emulator with some modern tweaks. [/QUOTE]
