More information is available here.Review – V15 Plugin Update from MeldaProduction A massive collection of plugins receives a huge update including improved displays and much more. If you like what you hear, the full product is sold at a 89 USD introductory price. If you are in the habit of using plug-ins like virtual consoles and tape machines in your production, you should give the demo a try. Overloud’s new product does seem to offer a new and (literally) exciting spin on simulating vintage gear. These effects are meant to balance the original audio’s natural harmonics, rather than synthesize additional ones on top.
As for the Stressor, it will probably stress your CPU hard, like any good quality “classic gear simulator 2017” does. The first presumably has something do with Studer’s coveted A-series tape machines. Two cartridge types are simulated as well – the A-Type and the Stressor. We don’t really have a clue which pieces of gear these may refer to, so you are welcome to try and educate us in the comments below. To accomplish the task of virtual tape excitement, Overloud simulated two “ classic processors” – the 180 and 361. This is the procedure replicated by Dopamine. Since these are rare, a computer simulation is your best option if you are after this particular vibe.
More specifically, the process of magnetic tape noise reduction involves dynamically “brightening” the signal – following which, the tape gets decoded by taking off the extra brightness and reducing the tape hiss. Unlike Tapedesk, which is a regular, functional tape machine and analogue desk sim, Dopamine’s goal is to enhance the sound as if it’s being put through a vintage tape noise reduction unit.
