## What is Tapes on Tapes?

Tapes on Tapes
8-Channel Tape Delay Matrix & Analog Lo-Fi Machine

Turn your iPad or iPhone into an experimental tape studio. Tapes on Tapes is an 8-channel AUv3 tape delay matrix plugin designed specifically for mobile workflows in GarageBand, AUM, and Logic Pro for iPad.

Inspired by vintage tape loops and modular routing setups, Tapes on Tapes lets you build complex soundscapes, evolving ambient textures, and heavily textured lo-fi degradation with intuitive touch controls.

Key Features:

8 Independent Tape Channels: Cross-route feedback loops between channels or feed them directly from live inputs to design evolving, self-generating delay networks.

Smart Tape Directionality: Sweeps seamlessly through Forward, Reverse, Alternating (flips direction at every splice boundary), and Random coin-flip modes.

Analog Character & FX: Inject warmth and character into every channel with dedicated Warble, Saturation, Logarithmic Bitcrushing, Low-Pass Filtering, and Tape Splice Length controls.

Global Reverb Matrix: Route any channel directly into an integrated Master Reverb Bus for deep, spatial diffusion.

Optimized Mobile UI: High-contrast 3D rotary dials, glowing hardware-style indicators, and tabbed navigation designed for fast, precise touch tweaking on mobile screens.

Seamless AUv3 Integration: Native host preset management support lets you save, load, and recall your favorite setups directly within your DAW.
