Tap Delay vs AK476

Back in the “old days”, producers and engineers created delay and echo effects using tape machines. Tap Delay combines the warm sound of vintage tape echo machines with a modern, step sequencer-like tapped delay engine which continues the tradition of the tape echo machines into the 21st century. The Tape simulation includes all relevant aspects for the recreation of a faithful analog tape sound: • Compression and Saturation • Tape hiss • Tape head bias • Wow and Flutter (Tape speed instability) • Smooth speed / delay time changes Three feedback filters with hipass/lowpass and bandpass characteristic simplify the creation of authentic dub echo effects. The built-in Limiter allows for endless feedback sounds. Use live input from any source - Microphone, Guitar, Audiobus and Inter App Audio - or take a song from your iTunes library for processing. Features: • Multi-tap delay machine • 24 taps for rhythmic delay effects • Tape simulation ( Saturation, Noise, Flutter ) • Alias free tape saturation through oversampling. • MIDI controllable including Tempo sync • Delay loop equalizer for dub effect. • Glitch free simulation of variable tape speeds. • Spatial echo rotation effect. • Audiobus 3 compatible with state saving • IAA compatible ( Auria, Cubasis, Garageband ). • AudioUnit AUv3 with parameter automation. • Ableton Link. • Integrated iTunes player.

AK476 is the perfect tool for vocals, drums, bass guitars, and any track where you need reliable, fast dynamic control. Able to tame the fastest transients, as well as accentuating the instant smack of your snare. Dual-mono feature gives you more control over your bus. There's a reason why it's a classic. Key Features: - Fast attack time - Wide range of release times - Dual-mono mode Available in AUv3 and standalone
