TS-440 is a cassette tape machine emulation that faithfully models 20 real cassette recorders and 4 tape formulations, capturing the unique preamp characteristics, EQ topology, head response, and transport behavior of each machine. Every cassette recorder features a preamp with its own sonic fingerprint. The TS-440 models each one, from the warm JFET input stage of the original TEAC 144 to the punchy op-amp circuits of the Tascam 424 series. Crank the input to overdrive the preamp and push it into harmonic saturation, or bypass the tape entirely to use TS-440 purely as a channel strip. TS-440 also includes four tape formulations, each offering different styles of compression and saturation. Type I Ferric, Type II Chrome, Type III Ferrichrome, and Type IV Metal. Driving each formulation differently is one of the most powerful creative tools in TS-440. Beyond the preamp, TS-440 gives you hands-on control over the physical degradation of the tape and transport. Simulate years of use and damage by dialing in tape aging, head wear, drift, wow and flutter, dropouts, hiss, and other lo-fi artifacts. Like many of these vintage recorders, TS-440 lets you control the pitch of the playback for detuned, warped effects. 33 factory presets provide instant starting points across the full range of TS-440’s capabilities, from clean studio masters to fully destroyed tape effects. Use them as-is or as a jumping-off point for your own sounds. — 20 cassette recorder models — 4 tape formulations — 3 tape speeds — 33 presets — Per-model EQ topologies — Channel strip-only coloration — Wear, Stability, and Hiss — Pitch adjustment Available now for macOS and Windows in AU and VST3 formats. suprlunr.com/ts-440 #ts440 #vstplugins #tascam424 #tapeheads l#saturation
