The Deco plugin captures the essence of vintage tape machines that shaped the early sound of recorded music. These classic devices were pioneers in creating effects like echo, flanging, and saturation, which contributed warmth and character to countless iconic tracks. Deco goes beyond simple emulation by authentically recreating the interaction of two tape decks working together, a technique that defined the workflow of legendary studios such as Sun Studios and Abbey Road.
This plugin combines two powerful effects in one: Doubletracker and Tape Saturation. Doubletracker simulates the interplay between two tape decks, allowing for dynamic tape flanging, lush chorusing, and rich slapback echoes by adjusting the timing relationship between decks. Meanwhile, the Tape Saturation side adds smooth compression and harmonic richness, enhancing tracks with subtle or intense overdrive to emulate the natural response of analog tape. Together, these effects bring authentic analog warmth and depth to your productions.
Designed for ease of use and creative freedom, Deco offers a simple interface with extensive control and automation capabilities. It fits seamlessly anywhere in your signal chain and responds transparently at low levels while delivering powerful saturation when pushed hard. Whether enhancing instruments or vocals, this plugin lets you explore the nostalgic qualities of tape with unlimited possibilities, making it a valuable tool for adding analog character and dynamic movement to modern productions.
