Audio Examples (dry then processed)
DyVision VideoTape from DyVision Works is a
32bit VST effect for use in Windows DAW
programs. It emulates the classic and
imperfect texture imparted to audio recorded
on video tape.
Towards the end of its technological life cycle
video tape had surprisingly good audio
quality. But as anybody who remembers the
80s, video rental stores, and 'video nasties'
knows, this was not always the case. VCRs &
tape could impart an almost overbearing
sonic signature to audio material due to
factors such as :
- Stretched, worn, or mangled tape
- Misaligned heads or rollers
- Sticky reels
- Demagnetized tape
- Magnetized heads
- Inherant noise problems worsened by
- Overzealous audio compressors / limiters
- Poor quality 'consumer grade' electronics
- Variation between different machines
Just like vinyl, the qualities of video tape have
the ability to instantly invoke the feel of a
certin era.
It was considered crap at the time, but then
again so were analog synthesizers.
•
Take your perfectly good audio and mangle it
with an emulation of analog video tape.
•
Go from the clean 'hi-fi' sound of the very last
VCRs right back to the nasty late 70s top
loading beasts.
•
Incredibly simple to get the results you want
with intuitive and minimalist controls
•
Download the fully functional demo and test it
on your own material. The demo has no time
limit but will insert white noise every 30
seconds or so. Purchasing the full version
removes this.
