Step into the world of true analog imperfections with FAIL.<3, the first-ever release from TapeFi – a brand-new name in the audio plugin game, built for producers who want character, chaos, and emotion, not sterile, lifeless effects.
We spent months capturing the soul of real tape – its warmth, grit, unpredictable wear, and nostalgic saturation – to create a one-of-a-kind plugin that transforms your digital tracks into lo-fi magic.
Key Features:
- Authentic Hiss – Add the dusty breath of real tape noise for instant lo-fi texture.
- Custom Distortion Engine – Hand-coded to emulate true magnetic degradation, from warm analog glow to gnarly saturation.
- Dropout Effect – Bring the unstable, broken playback vibes of old tape decks, with natural volume dips and glitches.
- MELT (Wow & Flutter) – A fully modeled pitch drift effect for realistic tape wobble and movement.
- 6 Unique Tape Modes – Each with its own tone, wear, and unpredictable personality.
- Native Support – Runs smooth on all major DAWs for Windows, macOS.
- AU / VST / VST3 ( 64 bit )
This is just the start of TapeFi’s rise, introducing a new vision for audio plugins – tools that feel alive, imperfect, and soulful, just like the music you love.
