Your point in the video is to make it louder? That can be done by moving the master fader up.
Obviously one of the characteristics of tape is a soft compression, but it easier to hear the differences (the fat, soft clip parts of your goal) when the perceived loudness of each state is levelled. Having done that by riding the YouTube volume slider I can hear some nice differences.Without having the plug in though it's difficult to know the benefit compared to a regular compressor.
@Safetytrousers Try to stay in focus here buddy! Seams like you are trying to lecture..
If you bring your fader up, you will clip your signal... This VCM Tape machine has other characteristics of compression and saturation which I just demo here. Nothing to do with your approach of bringing the master fader up.. It wont give me an analog saturation on each track...
This is a Yamaha VCM, VST3 plug-in with plenty under the hood. I Just made another quick video of it..
It's difficult to tell the difference, and tape emulation is going to be a subtle difference, when the plug in makes it louder. Making anything just louder will sound like an improvement.
@Safetytrousers You missed the whole point of the video demonstration buddy.
What I'm going for here (Obviously) is for a more fat LOUDER soft clip Tape Sound.
SO each track has the plug-in - And I wont get this result any other way but by using tape saturation.. WHICH as we all engineers know, will compress the audio.
You can switch from Swiss 70, 78, 85 and American 70
