Neurontape 1972 brings to you a fantastic simulation of this piece of equipment that is a bit hard to find in good shape these days.
We captured it from a unit that remain mostly untouched for its years. The preamp sound is thick, warm and will wildly saturate the circuit if overloaded.
This unit is Japanese made, about 50 years old. It sounds awesome.
From mix-bus to parallel distortion, Neurontape 1972 is a must have plugin for those who want to saturate tracks, glue the mix together with natural analog signal compression or even analog distort.
Experiment with different input/output levels to get to know what the circuit is really capable of.
With careful attention to detail, we've created a plugin that simulates the subtle nuances of this tape machine, such as tape hiss, wow and flutter, and harmonic distortion, to give your recordings an authentic vintage sound.
Neurontape 1972 can run its preamp on different tape conditions. A newer tape have a wider frequency range and a cleaner noise, while when it is older, it will have more character while being a bit unstable.
Back in 1972, this unit was shipped with a built-in equalizer for suiting different recording scenarios. Of course, Neurontape 1972 also have it.

Excellent plugin, adds great tape saturation, and can be used in different ways in your mix, besides being a multiplatform plugin, I really recommend it, it's really worth it. Thanks for the Linux version;).

Very very analog sounding. Super crunchy, natural and organic sounding tape saturation. Highly recommend. I'd like to see a dry-wet mix knob though.

Thank you very much Mat. This unit sounds very much crunchy indeed, it is very special. The Dry-wet knob is a good suggestion, we will take this into consideration. Thanks again! Enjoy.
