## What is TAIP?

Warm up your sound

TAIP brings the true sound and behavior of analog tape to iOS with the power of AI.

Use it to add organic saturation and life to any source that needs a little extra spark.

About TAIP

TAIP offers a faithful, AI-based emulation of a beloved vintage tape machine from the early 70s. You’ll get the same harmonic richness and nonlinear magic as the classic hardware with features that take you beyond the limits of the original.

TAIP’s unique approach to emulation uses a neural network in place of traditional DSP techniques to accurately decipher the magic characteristics of tape.

The result is a happy marriage between classic sound and modern versatility. And we encourage you to drive it hard!

TAIP Features:

- Drive:
TAIP’s most important parameter - add a subtle touch of warmth or extreme saturation (or anything in between).

- Mix:
Add tape saturation in parallel with the dry signal. Or combine the “Wear” and “Mix” parameters to create tape flanging.

- Model:
”Single” brings you one tape emulation, while “Dual” combines two tape machines in a series under the hood.

- Lo / Hi-Shape:
Saturates the low/high end more or less than the rest of the frequency spectrum. 

- Glue:
Exaggerates the compression effect that naturally occurs in tape recordings.

- Noise:
Adds more tape noise – or removes it entirely.

- Presence:
Brings back the brightness that gets lost on tape recordings.

- Wear:
Recreates the instabilities of a worn-out tape machine and subtly alters the tape speed.

- Input:
Lets you distort the signal more - or less - without affecting the output level.

- Auto-Gain:
Lets you add more drive while keeping a consistent plugin output.

### 4/5 — Good but needs more controls

*2025-08-19*

good tape plugin…but would be better with a few more controls. For example I’d really like a control for the feedback of the flanging.

### 5/5 — Excellent vintage tape

*2024-11-26*

Love the sound of this tape and the flanging is so subtly good. 5 stars
