...Always on the look for interesting software that might be "broadcast" related I've come across this item. ( "VTM-M2" The Vintage Tape Machine) that looks interesting. I think I'll check it out..... more later.
The following is from their FAQ page.
What is the "VTM-M2"?
The VTM-M2 is a plug-in that reproduces the unique character of reel to reel tape machines for use on all aspects of recording, mixing, and mastering. It can be used on every track of a multi-track project, on a single instance of a final mix or master, on group buss duties, and any combination of the above. (there is much more text explaining the software).
Here is a link to the site: (FAQ Page).
