FREE · STUDIO MODE · VST3 / AU

Free tape stop and tape effects plugin.

STUDIO is the clean, usable side of SCRAMBLE. Twists move your sound through tape, reels, delay, reverb and tape stops, with the wild effects kept rare, so most positions are ready to use in a mix.

What STUDIO does.

Tape stop

The slow-down-to-nothing drop, in time with your beat.

Tape + drift

Warmth, saturation and a little wobble for a lo-fi feel.

Half-time reels

Plays your loop at half speed for a heavier, slowed section.

Delay + reverb

Tempo-synced dub delays and rooms from small to huge.

How to get the sound.

  1. Put SCRAMBLE on any track (drums, keys, a bus, a full beat) and pick STUDIO.
  2. Twist the cube to move between tape, delay, reverb and tape-stop combinations.
  3. Automate a twist going into a drop for an instant transition.

Questions

Is this tape stop plugin free?

Yes. STUDIO and the other 7 modes are free, with 237 presets. The paid bundle adds more presets and the full vocal chain.

Is the tape stop in time?

Yes. Tape stops, delays and half-time reels follow your project tempo.

Is it just a lo-fi plugin?

No. Lo-fi tape is part of it, but STUDIO also does clean delays, reverbs and transitions you'd use on any track.

Does it work on Mac and Windows?

Yes. Mac gets VST3 and AU (Apple Silicon and Intel). Windows gets VST3 plus a standalone app. It loads in FL Studio, Ableton Live, Logic Pro and other DAWs. Not Pro Tools yet (no AAX).

When can I download it?

It's out now. Grab the free Mac + Windows download at scrambleplugin.com/download, or play the real engine in your browser first.
