DRIFT is a tape degradation plugin designed to bring the warmth and character of vintage tape machines into modern music production.

Whether aiming for a gentle vintage vibe or a more pronounced lo-fi texture, DRIFT offers an immersive tape experience that enhances any audio project.

The plugin features customizable controls to shape the tape effect precisely, including pitch drifting, flutter, wow, and tape failure emulations.

Users can select from eight EQ profiles modeled from a variety of tape formats such as cassette and VHS, providing a range of tonal options to fit different styles. Additional features like stereo imaging reduction and tape noise layers contribute to a rich and realistic tape simulation.

DRIFT's user interface is designed for ease of use, making it accessible to both beginners and experienced producers. The plugin supports MIDI control and automation for seamless integration into any workflow, and it offers window resizing for better screen management. Native support for Apple silicon ensures efficient performance on the latest hardware. With its combination of authentic tape characteristics and intuitive controls, DRIFT is an essential tool for adding vintage tape warmth and texture to digital recordings.
