Reelight Pro is a tape saturation plugin with many features for getting an authentic tape vibe and also some of the desirable artifacts associated with tape.

The plugin authentically emulates tape saturation/compression, overall sound, and vibe. We bring you 6 tape machines at 2 speeds and various levels of sampling and modeling to get the most authentic sound possible to date!

What’s Reelight Pro ?

The invention of digital audio recordings liberated sound engineers in many ways which were not possible in the analog era. Even with all the tools at one’s fingertips, musicians and engineers sorely missed the sound and sonics of earlier recordings.

Endless Creativity

Tape Pro is a multi-effect tape audio plugin that introduces warmth, frequency shaping, modulation, noise and delay. Whether you want to accurately replicate a microcassette tape running at 1.2cm/s, or you want to drive a mastering grade tape machine with strange distortion shapes into a high feedback delay engine, Tape Pro is the plugin for the job.

Tape Pro has a module for each sound feature of tape. The first of these in the signal chain is the Saturation module. The variety of distortion types to choose from turn Tape Pro into a valuable creative tool - get the exact saturation sound you want with; Tape, Digital, Rectify, Half-Rectify, Sine and Smooth.

The 413 Tape Saturator reproduces the non-linear characteristics that would result when overdriving analog tape, as magnetic saturation occurs with increasing amplitude of the 'recorded' signal. It offers 3 different types of Analog Tape, as well as 3 different types of distortion.

For the saturation process, the signal gets dynamically changed, especially high frequency information, in response to its amplitude.

The resulting effect simulates the saturation of analog tape, in a controllable environment which can be adjusted according to your preference.
