Deep enough to get lost in. Features: - Tape-style loop and delay behavior - Sound-on-sound overdub layering - Long delay times for ambient and drone use - Analog degradation and tone coloring - Wow, flutter, and tape degradation simulation - Presets for quick sound exploration - AUv3 plugin support The standalone app is included for exploring presets and quickly auditioning sounds. For the full experience, load Tape Loop Machine BA2 as an AUv3 audio effect inside your favorite host, connect a guitar, synth, microphone, or any audio source, and start building evolving loops.

VU44-7 — sample like a vinyl digger. VU44-7 turns sampling into a hands-on, tactile experience. Instead of staring at waveforms, you spin a real turntable platter, drop the needle and catch the perfect loop the way crate-diggers always have — by ear and by feel. Record straight off a spinning platter to get that warm, hand-played vinyl character into your sampler. Nudge the speed, scratch in a chop, cut it on the fly and grab exactly the slice you want. It's the fastest, most musical way to pull samples — whether you're flipping a record, a YouTube clip or your own field recordings.
