Airwindows ToTape7: Free Mac/Windows/Linux/Pi CLAP/AU/VST3/VST2/LV2/Rack
www.airwindows.com/totape7/ www.patreon.com/airwindows/
ToTape7 not only upgrades pretty much every single thing about ToTape, but it brings new functionality beyond any previous version (even when they're good) and it lets you go completely bonkers tailoring signature new sounds however you like them. This is the ToTape for people who wanted all the controls, and more. It's the ToTape for salvaging any sort of audio no matter how DAW-like it is… and it's the ToTape that can be stripped right down to serve as its own FromTape, anytime you like, or if you're trying to run lots of channels of it because you want to tape all the things and then mix them down also to tape. Which it's great at, by the way, as it soaks up loudness super well and even has a ClipOnly2 built in so it can serve, standalone, as your ultimate loudness clipper.
ToTape7 has exactly as many controls as you can fit in Airwindows Consolidated, which means it'll also run in VCV Rack. That means there are some possible controls it skips, and exactly one control that's dual-ganged with two things riding on one single knob. It's just a different knob this time: used to be dual-ganged on the knob marked Soften. The controls from top to bottom operate Dubly Encode, Drive, Flutter, Bias, Head Bump, and Dubly Decode. Again, set everything to the middle for 'normal', but you can go way past normal if you want.
(insert half hour video here ; ) )
And that's ToTape7! Ought to hold people for a while, and be a decent upgrade from ToTape6, even though people really like that one (and it's still there so you can still have it anytime you want).
I'm taking a couple weeks to just rest up, during which there won't be plugins or livestreams, but I'll be back early in September, to resume work on ConsoleX. That's the next thing I'll be working toward, and I think it's going to be exciting. Enjoy ToTape7 and see ya in September :)

www.airwindows.com/tapebias/ www.patreon.com/airwindows/ Closing in on the big update to ToTape, and here's a helpful detail, that's not existed in ToTape before. I've been doing recalls and rebuilds of the big ToTape7 for weeks, but this little aspect more or less worked right away. Biasing a tape means adding a really high frequency to the sound, a supersonic frequency like 40k. You record to...

www.airwindows.com/dubsub2/ www.patreon.com/airwindows/ The final element for reinventing ToTape is in place, with DubSub2! I've always used this one particular algorithm, both for ToTape and for various bass-emphasis plugins. It acts like a combination between an IIR filter and a saturation. And it's got fantastic sound, but with a catch: it has to be controlled in the higher frequencies or it...

As long as I'm reinventing all the things that go into ToTape7 (I've seen people get excited about the previous plugin, ToTape6, and felt I could do a heck of a lot better now) I like to let people have the new stuff immediately, and I like to let people us...

www.airwindows.com/flutter2/ www.patreon.com/airwindows/ It's time for a new ToTape (actively being worked on, and yes you're still getting more reverbs and ConsoleX and all that) and it turns out that when I went back in to revise the tape flutter algorithm, live on stream, the work went so well that I COULD NOT WAIT. I was basically looking to address how, in the original Flutter, it slows as...

My boy casually dropping his magnum opus
Someone said "more better". Thanks for this always "more better" gemz you drop on us.
I'm always trying to get a 'Live' sound Chris, so this used subtly would be great for that Stadium sound, gonna give it a go, and now I can use the all-in-one plugin Great!! Thanks Chris.
This. Is. Awesome. We can never thank you enough for your work, Chris. Simply amazing. Thank you.
TOTAPE SEVEEEEENNNNNNNNN
All I can say is WOW.
cool now go write some chunes
Major problem - how do you load a song? Drag and drop doesn't work on my macbook pro 2019. There's no load function that I can find. What to do? Can anyone help me out?
I have a teac 3 head pro tape deck and maybe this plugin is the one that can come close to what the analog tape can do. The bias control behave very much like push the tape the highs become super smooth and controlled removing those irritating digital transient. I’ll do more back to back test. Thank you chris for your amazing work
I feel bad that I'm too broke to get a patron account for this guy. Absolute vst gold with no bloat or bs.
I don't want you to feel bad, I want to help and support you until you have resources of your own and then you can be a patron with no trouble or drama. So, let me give you stuff while you're getting on your feet: least I can do is make life better for you NOW and that can help you get on with things <3
Woow!
Liking the default settings with very minor shifts to bias or enc/dec. Using the consolidated version for input & output controls. Well done sir!
This is awesome, I love that the source code is available for all of these functions too. HOLY FUCK!
unbelievable
"uh.... I'm gonna move on...." >hits subscribe button immediately< 😂
Thank you for your amazing and generous work. Hope you get all the time you need to rest.
The control surface template for Console X looks INCREDIBLE. So excited for Console X.
I’m so excited to try this out and I really hope this is as good as you say it is (and why shouldn’t it be)!
WOW!.. just WOW!.. do take some relaxing days. You deserve it!! Best tape emulation ever!! Just made my mix pop in a 70's way.. wow! Looking REALLY forward to the new Console!
Chris you are a talent, I always like listening to your music that you demonstrate. I will be trying your new plugin, anything to keep away the digi blues. Thank You.
I tried this plugin in my RadioBoss Host, and when i double click on it a message appears and says "no parameters window available"... WHY ?
the only thing missing is the possibility to save all that parameters when you find the right combination of all all theses parameters.... a kind of "save this preset as..."
just save it in your daw like a preset
Thanks Chris, this plugin is a game changer. Thanks for the good timesin this year livestreams, rest well during your well deserved break.
Great stuff!
Thank you so much Chris! Have a nice well deserved rest!
Dry/Wet option ??
my favorite tape updated!!! thank you Chris !
truly awesome
YESSSSSSSSS
Great plugins, great demo tracks. Thanks!
I'm loving it too...there is new punch! Great stuff Chris
AMAZING!
This needs an output gain please :) Since you can drive the tape low or loud, we need to be able to compensate the level.
Can't. Ran out of sliders. I've got Dubly Encode Freq and the internal ToTape highs crossover freq on the same control as it is. Can't be done without making it unable to include in Airwindows Consolidated and the VCV Rack plug. Sorry :)
@@airwindows Maybe time to invest in gain compensation.
@@STAR0SS@trjaudio airwindows consolidated has an input and output gain.
Insane work thank you so much for all you do Chris👏
Enjoy your well-earned break Chris.
how do i install them on mac :(
Excited to play with this. Thanks Chris.
With a little bit of testing, I am loving it.
With more testing I am loving it on vocals, bass and more... Great plugin!
This is truly the best tape plugin out at this time. It’s extremely customizable but with only 10 Parameters. This is ridiculous what you’ve created and it’s crazier that we all know, you’re still not done yet 🔥🔥🔥🔥
thank you
Your focus on experimenting with "alternative" DSP and creating authentic tones from simple algorithms is something I appreciate so much in your plugins and I believe it pays off. Less is more, and Airwindows is more better.
no output knob??? thanks btw
Airwindows Consolidated has one.
dun dun DUUUNNNNNNN 🎉
I've installed the latest "consolidated" which if I open in a new channel insert I can access ToTape7, but there's no way of accessing ToTape6. The instance of consolidated I already had inserted with ToTape6 still exists and runs ToTape6, but I can't reload ToTpae6 on it, only ToTape 7 is showing. How do I open an instance of Airwindows and be able to choose between 6 and 7?
I have ToTape5/6/7 listed in the latest release and they all load fine. What DAW are you using?
It’s because it selects a limited collection of plugins to show you to begin with. There’s a setting to expand it somewhere.
Change "Filter by Collection" to "All Plugins"
@@daverobertsonandthekisslist That did the trick. Thanks Dave :)
Yeah! It's happened!:) Thank you Chris for all the effort you put into this. There's a lot to explore for us here. I'm excited to try it! As for the Flutter 2 - I already found a great place for it on percussion elements to make it wide, weird and cool:) and I also using it as a dubler, what you just explained in the video - I'm even using this on background vocals, to make two out of one, but also I'm adding some delay to just one channel with your SampleDelay.
Chris this one is magical ...SMH
FINALLY
Excellent work!
To clarify, do I need to reinstall Consolidated with each new release? I'm uncertain about the process and would appreciate some guidance.
I just add new releases manually to my last consolidated
@@irishmossdubwise How do you do that?
@@porkpie2884 bump
@@porkpie2884 he gives an option to download the one plugin or the revised compiled package
Yeah, just install it the same way you did before,
Thank you so much Chris! 🙏💯🔥 recover well and take a well deserved break.
