RSO Extreme Punch Tape Saturation

swisha31 · 31st October 2007

Alright guys I don't know if you've ever run into this plugin or not but I've only played with it for a few minutes on the 2bus and man it was crazy. punch, seperation and space between instruments in the track, color. then I disabled the plug and the track sounded completely lifeless. I mean I seriously understand the sterile of digital now because this was an amazing difference and eye opener. I've used Voxengo, Magneto, Vintagewarmer, and a couple of others and none of them have given me this type of result. I've never used DUY DaD or Phoenix but I would love to and compare these with that plug. I have used Massey's demo and quite a bit and I love that plug though but i never put it on the 2bus. What makes it so perfect is that it is so simple to use. You have a drive, threshold, and output. that's it. the results you get from that are amazing, to me at least. I know this thing doesn't have a big name attached to it but goodness. i'm encouraging all of you to go out and try this thing. if you don't like it then so be it. the most of you are analog console guys anyway. but for the ITB guys, give it a go and see how you come out.thumbsup

If you'd like to put up a source clip and ask for examples of related plugins, I would be happy to take the time to give you examples from Airwindows Iron Oxide. I consider it to be very similar in character to DaD Tape, but warmer and less buzzy

That way you can hear it even if you're not an Audio Unit user.
